What would it mean to discover an ancient language - a literal message - hidden within the DNA of life itself? What we once believed of our past is about to change... A coded message has been found within the molecules of life, deep within the DNA in each cell of our bodies. Through a remarkable discovery linking Biblical alphabets to our genetic code, the "language of life" may now be read as the ancient letters of a timeless message. Regardless of race, religion, heritage, or lifestyle, the message is the same in each cell of every woman, child, and man, past and present. Sharing all-new, fascinating research, Gregg Braden discusses the life-changing discovery that led him from a successful career in the aerospace and defense industries to an extensive 12-year study of the most sacred and honored traditions of humankind.

A GREATER PSYCHOLOGY: An Introduction to Sri Aurobindo's Psychological Thought   A GREATER PSYCHOLOGY: An Introduction to Sri Aurobindo's Psychological Thought Ref: B2FRWD032

Sri Aurobindo, edited by A S Dalal

"Consciousness is a reality inherent in existence," taught the Hindu mystic Aurobindo (1872-1950). He rejected Western psychology, which begins with individual conscious personalities viewing and reacting to phenomena external to themselves. Human minds participate in a continuum of Mind, of which the practice of "Integral Yoga" can make one aware. On the other hand, Aurobindo stressed conscious reality's involvement in all things material, and rejected claims that the material world is mere illusion. This dynamic Reality, which transcends we who are individual instances of it, this "greater psychology," is the topic of this systematically arranged anthology drawn from the 30 volumes of Aurobindo's writings. Dalal (Hidden Forces of Life, Growing Within), a clinical psychologist connected with Aurobindo's ashram, supplements the anthology with seven essays on the teacher's psychological thought and a useful, concise glossary. While Aurobindo's more popular texts (The Life Divine, Letters on Yoga) are widely available, this anthology offers a clearly organized introduction to his views and their relation to yoga practice. It offers a profound antidote to the individualistic psychology of the West.

HEALER: Dancing with the Healing Spirit  HEALER: Dancing with the Healing Spirit Ref: B2FRWB0198

Various Authors

Readers of Carl Jung and Joseph Campbell will be familiar with the concept of archetypes, symbolic figures that embody key aspects of our contradictory nature, from the hero to the fool. The highly innovative and gorgeously illustrated series, Archetypes of the Collective Unconscious considers variations on these ancient themes in volumes that combine provocative writings, Native American myths, and extraordinarily well chosen images, both handmade and photographic. Andrew Weil introduces The Healer by discussing 'the paradox of the healer archetype,' the fact that although people depend on a healer, whether physician or spiritual guide, to eradicate their ills, healing must come from within. And sure enough, the essays that follow depict the complexities and mysteries of the healer's role. William Carlos Williams portrays a doctor who becomes enraged by a stubborn child, and Oliver Sacks describes an 89-year-old patient who presents him with a surprisingly accurate self-diagnosis. Other eloquent contributors include Langston Hughes, Lewis Thomas, and medical intuitive Caroline Myss.

HEALING BACK PAIN NATURALLY  HEALING BACK PAIN NATURALLY Ref: B2FREA391

Arthur H Brownstein

How to improve back health through exercise, yoga-based stretches, and stress reduction. Brownstein (a clinical instructor of medicine at the University of Hawaii, Manoa) suffered multiple injuries and severe back pain for 20 years; when traditional medicines and surgery failed to help, he found relief by creating a regimen drawing on alternative therapies. The knowledge he acquired from yoga, meditation, diet, relaxation, and deep breathing was channeled into a program he calls Back To Life. Unlike the quick fixes offered by conventional medicine, Brownstein's program works holistically and requires changing unhealthy life patterns. He introduces the reader to a stretching program and strengthening exercises (demonstrated in black-and-white photos), then covers stress management, nutrition, return to work, and the psycho-spiritual elements of recovery.

THE HEALING ENERGIES OF TREES  THE HEALING ENERGIES OF TREES Ref: B2FRFD358

Patrice Bouchardon

In 1985 Patrice Bouchardon accepted, at five days,' notice an invitation to take temporary charge of a large farm in his native France, with more than a hundred head of livestock. He knew nothing whatsoever about farms, animals, or even about living in the country. This complete lack of knowledge compelled him to abandon the usual mental system in favour of simply paying attention to the animals to understand their needs. This extraordinary experience made him aware of the vast possibilities of the mind, and led to a new understanding of life. He then spent several months living in the depths of the forest so he could explore the wealth of the world of trees through the same kind of apprenticeship. There were many surprises in store. These experiences led Bouchardon to create his energized tree oils, which after 10 years are still revealing new aspects of their capacity to help us heal, change, and grow. The secrets of this approach are passed on in his regular workshops to a growing number of people who are discovering for themselves the healing power of trees. Most important of all, those who attend them find new resources for understanding themselves, and a catalyst for developing their creativity and finding new solutions to their problems.

THE HEALING MIND: A Physician Looks at the Mysterious Ability of the Mind to Heal the Body  THE HEALING MIND: A Physician Looks at the Mysterious Ability of the Mind to Heal the Body Ref: B2FRED826

Dr Irving Oyle

There is a power within the mind to heal the body. Doctors have long known that medical intervention is only valuable in initiating the healing process, yet patients continue to go to the doctor asking to be 'made well.' Medical people encourage their patients expectations by dispensing drugs that mask symptoms, or with surgical procedures that may do more harm than good. In The Healing Mind Dr Oyle presents the idea that whatever you put your faith in can be the precipitating agent for your cure. This inner belief is a vital factor in any healing process, regardless of the ritual employed by the doctor or healer.
