Building on the groundbreaking research of Irreducible Mind and Beyond Physicalism, Edward Kelly and Paul Marshall gather a cohort of leading scholars to address the most recent advances in the psychology of consciousness. Currently emerging as a middle ground between warring fundamentalisms of religion and science, an expanded science-based understanding of nature finally accommodates empirical realities of spiritual sorts while also rejecting rationally untenable overbeliefs. The vision sketched here provides an antidote to the prevailing postmodern disenchantment of the world and demeaning of human possibilities. It not only more accurately and fully reflects our human condition but engenders hope and encourages ego-surpassing forms of human flourishing. It offers reasons for us to believe that freedom is real, that our human choices matter, and that we have barely scratched the surface of our human potentials. It also addresses the urgent need for a greater sense of worldwide community and interdependence - a sustainable ethos - by demonstrating that under the surface we and the world are much more extensively interconnected than previously recognized.

Journey on the path of self-discovery through the magic of crystals. Whether you need the power to help you with your home, health or happiness, this book contains the guidance, advice and rituals you need to be in sync with your spirituality. The beauty and uniqueness of crystals and other stones have long been recognized for their mystic influence in our day-to-day lives. Historically, people used them for trade and jewellery and, even in modern times, we use them to create new and wonderous technologies. They are the product of natural energy derived from cosmic and geological forces including stars, the sun and intense heat and pressure from the Earth, so it makes sense to recycle this potential. The Magic of Crystals explores how you can unlock this potent vitality with practical advice on what crystals you will need to enhance particular characteristics in your home, how to combine their energy with feng shui to create happiness and harmony, how to relieve spiritual blockages in your chakras plus much, much more. There are also quick reference pages that give advice on how to solve common problems.
