The universe is alive with powerful, positive and loving energy -
energy that can help bring about all that you desire in your life.
The Law of Attraction states that thoughts, both conscious and
unconscious, can have powerful effects; the more positive your
thoughts, the more you attract positive energy. The steps to
harnessing this law are: first, to know what you want and ask the
universe for it; then, to believe and behave as if the object of
your desire is on its way; and finally, to be truly open to
receiving. This beautifully designed deck of 52 meditation cards
offers practical wisdom to help harness this abundance and bring it
into your life. The cards are divided into four suits, each focused
on an area of life - Love and Relationships; Career and Prosperity;
Creativity; and Spiritual Growth. Each suit features an inspiring
illustration inspired by the heavens and appropriate to that theme.
On the reverse you will find a key word to help bring each card
into focus along with a visualisation, meditation, exercise,
technique or inspiring quotation. With a wealth of inspirational
practices, this deck will be an essential companion for everyone
seeking abundance in their life.
More than twenty years ago, Jon Kabat-Zinn changed the way we
thought about awareness in everyday life with his now-classic
introduction to mindfulness, Wherever You Go, There You Are. He
followed that up with 2005's Coming to Our Senses, the definitive
book for our time on the connection between mindfulness and our
well-being on every level, physical, cognitive, emotional, social,
planetary, and spiritual. Now, Coming to Our Senses is being
repackaged into 4 smaller books, each focusing on a different
aspect of mindfulness, and each with a new foreword written by the
author. In the first of these books, Meditation Is Not What You
Think (which was originally published as Part I and Part II of
Coming to Our Senses), Kabat-Zinn focuses on the "what" and the
"why" of mindfulness--explaining why meditation is not for the
"faint-hearted," how meditation can actually be a radical act of
love, and why paying attention is so supremely important. By
"coming to our senses"--both literally and metaphorically--we can
become more compassionate, more embodied, more aware human beings,
and in the process, contribute to the healing of the body politic
as well as our own lives in ways both little and big.

More and more we rely on digital connection to fulfil our needs. Skype and FaceTime have taken place of meetings; digital devices are used to entertain children instead of playing with them; non-urgent emails and texts are read and responded to whilst in the company of others, lessening personal connections.
Through 100 simple tips, including self-help assessments, step-by-step programmes and rebalancing techniques, this essential guide shows you how technology can still play a useful and rewarding role in your life, but not at the expense of personal relationships and mental health.
Sacred Geometry exists all around us in the natural world, from the
unfurling of a rose bud to the pattern of a tortoise shell, the
sub-atomic to the galactic. A pure expression of number and form,
it is the language of creation and navigates the unseen dimensions
beyond our three-dimensional reality. Since its discovery, humans
have found many ways - stone circles, mandalas, labyrinths,
temples- to call upon this universal law as a way of raising
consciousness and communicating with a divine source. By becoming
aware of the dots and lines that build the world around you, Sacred
Geometry will teach you how to bring this mystical knowledge into
your daily practice.

A practical manual for daily life that shows how we can develop and
maintain inner peace, reduce and stop our experience of problems,
and bring about positive changes in our mind that will lead us to
experience deep and lasting happiness. Drawing on the timeless
wisdom of Buddhism and his own deep experience of these practices,
Geshe Kelsang Gyatso presents a comprehensive path to inner and
outer peace, perfectly suited to the modern world. "When things go
wrong in our life and we encounter difficult situations, we tend to
regard the situation itself as our problem, but in reality whatever
problems we experience come from the mind. If we were to respond to
difficult situations with a positive or peaceful mind they would
not be problems for us; indeed, we may even come to regard them as
challenges or opportunities for growth and development. Problems
arise only if we respond to difficulties with a negative state of
mind. Therefore, if we want to be happy all the time and to be free
from problems, we must develop and maintain a peaceful mind."
