Choosing God: A Birds Eye View of A Course in Miracles by Charles L Whitfield, MD While summarizing the main messages of A Course in Miracles with remarkable clarity, in this new book Charles Whitfield goes well beyond the other books on the Course. Here the best-selling author of Healing the Child Within and nine other self-help and recovery oriented books, draws upon his vast clinical experience assisting people with addictions, "mental illnesses," and other problems in living. He does so by correlating the simple yet profound teachings of this modern holy book with the reader's current personal and relationship problems and recovery needs. Dr. Whitfield writes, "A Course in Miracles is the most spiritually exciting book I have ever read. I have found no other spiritual writing as intellectually stimulating yet so practical in our relationships with ourself, others and God. "Do you want peace or pain? If you want peace, the Course suggests, Choose God. It's that simple. What is not so simple is knowing exactly why, when and how to choose God. "In this book I give you a reader friendly summary of what I and selected other writers believe to be the most important spiritual psychology in the Course."

The Natural Soul: Unity with the Spiritual Energy that Connects Us What It looks like and how It feels The central concept of The Natural Soul is the difference between ego, the character we play in our daily drama, and who we really are our soul or True Self. This book overflows with intimate vignettes that bring these ideas alive. Whitfield tackles head-on our current epidemic of spiritual and societal malaise and our overuse of prescription medication which usually numbs us to our soul. Our ego may struggle to understand but as we read we awaken to what our soul innately knows We came here as souls born into a human body and we will leave again as our soul. She uses this new way of seeing our life in other areas including: the love of our life, raising children, grieving naturally instead of numbing out in depression, helping others die, facing our own final passage in this life time and soul contact across the veil. The Natural Soul, Whitfield's fifth published book, offers us our souls' natural birth right a life of peace and joy. Previous books have garnered her appearances on Oprah, Larry King, Donahue, the U.S. Senate and U.N. in New York.
