Dr. Eben Alexander, author of international phenomenon Proof of Heaven, shares the next phase of his journey to understand the true nature of consciousness and how to cultivate a state of harmony with the universe and our higher purpose.
In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexander's brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a weeklong coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but he miraculously survived and brought back with him an astounding story. During those 7 days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned changed everything he knew about the brain, mind, and consciousness and drove him to ask a question confounding the entire scientific community: How do you explain the origins of consciousness if it is not a byproduct of the brain? His challenge relates to a revolutionary shift now underway within our modern scientific understanding. Ultimately, direct experience is key to fully understanding how we are all connected through the binding force of unconditional love and its unlimited power to heal.
In Living in a Mindful Universe, the New York Times bestselling author of Proof of Heaven and The Map of Heavenshares his insights into the true nature of consciousness. Embracing his radically new worldview, he began a committed program of personal exploration into nonlocal consciousness. Along the way, he met Karen Newell, who had spent most of her lifetime living the worldview he had only just discovered was possible. Her personal knowledge came from testing various techniques and theories as part of her daily routine. With Living in a Mindful Universe, they teach you how to tap into your greater mind and the power of the heart to facilitate enhancement of healing, relationships, creativity, guidance, and more. Using various modalities related to meditation and mindfulness, you will gain the power to access that infinite source of knowing so vital to us all, ultimately enriching every facet of our lives.
What do you do when you discover information that is before its
time? What do you do when your curiosity takes you on an adventure
that is so bizarre that there is nothing 'normal' to relate to?
This is what happened to Dolores Cannon in 1968, long before she
began her career as a past-life hypnotherapist and regressionist.
Travel back with us to that time when the words 'reincarnation,
past-lives, regression, walk-ins, New Age' were unknown to the
general population. This is the story of two normal people, who
accidentally stumbled across past-lives while working with a doctor
to help a patient relax. It began so innocently, yet it crossed the
boundaries of the imagination to open up an entirely new way of
thinking at a time when such a thing was unheard of. It went
totally against the belief systems of the time. It was so startling
that they should have stopped, but their curiosity demanded that
they continue to explore the unorthodox. The experiment changed the
participants and everyone involved, and their beliefs would never
be the same. Dolores Cannon is now a world-renowned hypnotherapist
who has explored thousands of cases in the forty years since 1968,
and has written fifteen books about her discoveries. Her books are
translated into more than 20 languages. She is teaching her unique
form of hypnosis all over the world. When she lectures people ask,
'How did you get started on all of this?'. This is the story of her
beginnings. The book was written in 1980, her very first book. It
has laid dormant, gathering dust, until now, waiting. Now is the
time for it to come forth. Enjoy the adventure.
Prosperity is a hot topic during uncertain times, but it tends to
focus attention on money, or the lack of it. The next in the
increasingly popular Crystal Prescriptions series, this volume
introduces the core processes of harnessing crystals to manifest an
abundant life, and release blocks to prosperity. It examines karmic
debts, ancestral and familial ingrained attitudes; and how to
transmute them. Rather than saying 'do it this way', it helps you
to sense the energy of crystals, choose the appropriate ones for
you and work with them in an interactive process that generates
inner security and a real sense of well-being. Crystals for
Prosperity also examines what can enrich life in addition to money.
An A-Z crystal directory which includes sections on crystal tools,

Every week thousands of people in Europe and the USA consult
psychic practitioners. Communication is crucial to the performance
of psychic powers in a range of settings. Psychic practitioners use
language to demonstrate their powers, whether they are reporting
the words of their spirit contacts or interpreting the spread of
Tarot cards. Their clients also accept or reject this information
through talk. This book presents the first sustained study of the
verbal interaction between the various kinds of psychic
practitioners and their clients. Using conversation analysis, Robin
Wooffitt examines the structure of the interaction, focusing on the
ways in which psychic practitioners and their clients establish the
authenticity of the claimed paranormal powers. Adopting a neutral
standpoint towards the status of the claims of psychic
practitioners, the book raises important issues about the role of
social science in understanding the activities of psychic
practitioners and other kinds of parapsychological phenomena. This
highly original study will appeal to students and scholars of
discourse studies, and to sociologists interested in conversation
analysis. It is written in a style accessible to non-specialists,
and will also interest parapsychologists and social scientists
studying psychic phenomena and the paranormal.

Most people understand Mediumship as the practice of passing on
information from deceased loved ones who bring a message that they
live on. However, there is so much more to spirit communication.
Claire Broad, accredited medium and spiritual teacher explains how,
as a conduit between two worlds, she is uniquely placed to receive
and communicate wisdom about our soul's journey from the deceased
and her guides. After experiencing her own profound soul connection
and receiving coaching from her team of spirit guides, Claire has
been asked by the spirit world to write on their behalf, about the
soul and unconditional love. From soul families, to soulmates and
twin flames, there are many expressions of soul connections, each
one perfectly designed to lead us back to pure unconditional love
and our soul within. Even the most difficult and painful
relationships serve a higher spiritual purpose, teaching us to live
fearlessly, love without condition, have compassion for all souls
on Earth, as well as enjoy a life of greater joy, purpose and
meaning. Lessons from the afterlife prepare us for our own
inevitable physical death and the soul's journey back to the spirit
world. When we are ready to see the truth of the soul, we can learn
the value in every relationship including the most important of
all, the one we hold with ourselves. We can discover we are enough,
we are never alone, nor can we be separated from those we love even
after death. We are all connected in this world and the next.

As a traditional psychotherapist, Dr. Brian Weiss was astonished and skeptical when one of his patients began recalling past-life traumas that seemed to hold the key to her recurring nightmares and anxiety attacks. His skepticism was eroded, however, when she began to channel messages from "the space between lives," which contained remarkable revelations about Dr. Weiss's family and his dead son. Using past-life therapy, he was able to cure the patient and embark on a new, more meaningful phase of his own career.
Dionysian Buddhism: Guided Interpersonal Meditations in the Three
Yanas will assist readers in exploring their own emotional
landscapes. This sequence of thirty guided meditations by the
renowned spiritual teacher and psychotherapist Claudio Naranjo is
structured to guide individuals towards acceptance of what is and
to be fully present -- to meet pain with joy, expand awareness into
consciousness and to learn how to share in the full presence of
others. The "Dionysian" context of Buddhism provides a lens in
which to interpret non-attachment through noninterference with the
stream of life. Naranjo draws on a wide range of Buddhist
traditions, from Theravada to Vajrayana, in order to create a work
that emphasizes both the experiential and multifaceted aspects of
meditation. As Naranjo says, Only a change of consciousness might
save our world, and that in view of this collective shift in
consciousness there is nothing more relevant we can do than start
with ourselves.

A cutting-edge guide to the psychology and neuroscience of
spiritual experiences Spiritual experiences have occurred within
people around the world and throughout history, up to and including
the present day. The founders of every major religion described
them, philosophers since antiquity have pondered them, and
according to recent polls, about 30% of people still report them. A
century ago, philosopher and psychologist William James famously
analyzed accounts of these experiences and raised questions for
future scientific study. What triggers these events? How are the
brain and body affected? How do these brief moments have such
lasting effects? Now, modern science has some answers. This book
invites readers into contemporary psychology and neuroscience
laboratories around the world to learn about these elusive yet
profound inner events. As it explores phenomena ranging from divine
revelations to paranormal experiences to life-changing experiences
of unity, findings from modern science are illustrated with a
diverse set of personal accounts from believers and non-believers
alike, plunging readers into deeply personal and sometimes
transformative moments. Written by two renowned scientists in the
field, this book is a deep exploration of the psychology and
neuroscience of a range of profoundly meaningful experiences.
