Music CD in a Digipack which includes a 16-page booklet which
provides information about the musicians, their philosophy and
their instruments! Music for me can take on many forms. I play for
many reasons, mainly because I love music. I love the high, the
beautiful place it takes me, the feeling during and after I play.
This to me is meditation. Being in the moment and at one with my
own being. No thoughts just allowing the music to come through me.
There are some techniques I use and have discovered on this musical
journey, some of which I will discuss in the next section. Running

The Original Body addresses the physiological experience of yoga.
The soft tissue, skeletal, fluid and spatial sensations experienced
in practice are considered in sequence and collectively as the
reader becomes drawn into a depth of feeling and understanding that
lies beyond practice. Yoga teachers are shown how to use a deeper
'feeling' to unveil an innate powerful physical wisdom. This

through the common factors inhibiting sensory pathways. These
include conditioning, habit, trauma, anxiety, non-essential thought
and the effect of technique and methodology in teaching. Teachers
will learn about the principles of mechanical freedom in postures
and movement and they will find out about the parallels and
differences between yoga practice and the osteopathic approach to
bio mechanics.The Original Body invites the reader to put aside
Sanskrit terminology and well - trodden paths and dig deeply into
themselves and discover the unconditioned body at its deepest
level. This book supports its reader through the understanding that

'My reason for writing this book is quite simple. I want to ask my
spirit guides to tell us of ways in which we may - whilst still
living in our physical bodies on earth - cross over the threshold
that leads into realms of spirit... These are the same worlds that
we will enter after our earthly deaths, and the very same worlds
from which we have also descended into our earthly births.' Working
with his personal spirit guides, Bob Woodward seeks contemporary
methods to gain access to higher worlds, the metaphysical realms of
reality that underpin our existence. In comprehensible language -
accessible to any serious seeker of truth - he presents transcripts
of communications with his guides, each section featuring an
individual teaching followed by questions, discussion and
commentary. The messages he receives contain a sequence of
imaginative, inspiring meditations that enable the reader to
explore worlds of spirit. Reconnecting consciously with these
spheres brings true knowledge of ourselves, allowing each of us to
work as enlightened beings, with greater compassion and
understanding, for the good of the whole world. Following on from
his Knowledge of Spirit Worlds and Life After Death, Bob Woodward's
new book provides vital insights for anyone aspiring to a greater
sense of meaning and purpose in their lives.

born with the potential to use our inner senses as well as our
outer ones, to transcend the limitations of the selves we thought

In spiritual teacher Osho's Aspects of Meditation Book 4: Medicine
and Meditation, you'll discover a deeper understanding of
meditation through an investigation into the subtle workings of the
mind, focusing on questions of health and illness. The West has
taken to meditation with great enthusiasm. We contemplate. We
concentrate. We embrace mindfulness techniques and a multitude of
mantras. We have undertaken to "do" meditation. The Aspects of
Meditation series is comprised of brief, precious texts in which
Osho shows us the core of meditation is not about sitting silently
or chanting a mantra. It is, instead, a question of understanding
the subtle workings of the mind. In Book 4, Osho examines health
and illness, disease and well-being as outgrowths of our sense of
self and connection to our mind.
