When I was kid I can remember numerous times being told that I needed to change my behavior or I would find myself in prison or possibly dead. The only challenge that I had was no one could provide me with guidance or the how to. At the age of 12 I learned self hypnosis from an audio tape and at the age of 16 I read my first psychology text book. I joined numerous churches and inquired into numerous religions. I search from one end of the United States to the other looking for answers but all I found were doctors and counselors that would tell me what was wrong with me but not one person could tell me how to change the direction of my life. I had been given a diagnosis of bipolar, ADD/ADHD, depression, anxiety, these were to name a few. Eventually, I turned to self medicating and before long I was told I was an addict. I gave up. Then one day I had an epiphany. What I had been looking for was right in front of me. I had been so focused on the negativity in my life I was overlooking the gifts that were being bestowed upon me. Now you have the opportunity to discover what I have discovered throughout my life long search for answers. As you open the pages and begin to read open your mind and your heart and enjoy the journey. I once was told that it isn't the destination that's important it's the journey we learn from.

Artists have always known intuitively what science is just beginning to discover: that creating a visual image through any medium can produce physical and emotional benefits for both the creator as well as those who view it. Most important, you don't need to think of yourself as an artist or even believe you have any "talent" to tap into the healing powers of art.

In this remarkable testament to the power of creativity, Barbara Ganim shows step-by-step how to use art to heal body, mind, and spirit. By using guided meditation and artistic techniques, you can gain insight and clarity into depression, anxiety, rage, and even illnesses, including cancer, arthritis, and AIDS.

Filled with actual stories from those who have triumphed over adversity and with more than a hundred different pieces of artwork created using this groundbreaking method, "Art and Healing" is sure to provide the tools needed for healing body and spirit.

New Thought proponents at the turn of the 20th century sought to use mysticism to unleash the forces of the universe in themselves. One of the most influential thinkers of this early "New Age" philosophy promises here, in this 1913 book, to show the reader how to cultivate the memory in such a way as to improve one's entire life. Atkinson's method is not geared to mere recollection of facts: it encourages a holistically "correct seeing, thinking, and remembering." With secrets hidden for almost a century, this book will teach you to train the eye as well as the ear to improve your ability to recall names, faces, numbers, music, facts, and much more. American writer WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON (1862-1932) was born in Baltimore and had built up a successful law practice in Pennsylvania before professional burnout led him to the religious New Thought movement. He served as editor of the popular magazine New Thought from 1901 to 1905, and as editor of the journal Advanced Thought from 1916 to 1919. He authored dozens of New Thought books-including The Philosophies and Religions of India, Arcane Formula or Mental Alchemy and Vril, or Vital Magnetism-under numerous pseudonyms, some of which are likely still unknown today.

Who is God anyway? The old man who created the world in six days and then took Sunday off, or the one who thinks that a man equals two women? What if it was us who created God in our own image and not the opposite? The prolific interpretations of God with their fear-based distortions support this theory. What if the universal recipe for life and happiness--or the carrot that donkeys worldwide are pursuing--were as illusionary and deceitful as the numerous personas of God? What if both our fear-based constructs of God and reality were seeded on purpose in order to enslave us in a matrix of cognitive distortions? If so, who benefits from keeping us energetically harnessed?

This book explores the true nature of God as a consciousness that steps down into manifested form through a basic understanding of the mechanics of co-creation. It also explores the mechanics of miscreation, along with the inorganic nature and consequences of fear, including physical phenomena like the formation of black holes and metaphysical ones like the biblical fall.

A set of tools is provided for those who wish to detangle themselves from the matrix of fear-based consciousness by reclaiming their initial state of mastery and godhood and becoming the architects of their life in this physical realm and beyond.
