DREAMMAKER'S APPRENTICE: Using Heightened Awareness to Interpret the Waking Dream  DREAMMAKER'S APPRENTICE: Using Heightened Awareness to Interpret the Waking Dream Ref: REA394

Arnold Mindell

This book is about the psychological and spiritual Interpretation of dreams. It’s been 100 years since Freud, and Dreammaker's Apprentice represents the beginning of a new process oriented dreamwork based upon perception of subtle signals. The new method includes analytical and gestalt techniques yet gives the dreamer a sense of the origin of dreams. Mindell brings forward exercises and experiments that give us access to the invisible "Dreammaker's" mind and the "tug" we feel from subtle, usually forgotten, altered states of consciousness and mystical experiences that occur continuously throughout both day and night. This book is about learning to experience these altered states, and using them to understand the meaning of dreams.

THE EMERGING MIND: New Discoveries in Consciousness  THE EMERGING MIND: New Discoveries in Consciousness Ref: RWD598

Karen Nesbitt Shanor

Is your big toe capable of thinking? Who's driving your car while you're busy daydreaming? What goes on in your mind while you sleep? Can our thoughts really influence others, or create physical objects? Karen Shanor's The Emerging Mind answers these questions and more. Drawing on the contributions of Deepak Chopra, Karl Pribram, and others who participated in her acclaimed Smithsonian Institution lecture series, Dr. Shanor delves into such fascinating areas as hypnosis, the development of the "self", multiple personalities, and our many states of consciousness during sex, sports, or while watching television. Dr. Shanor can help us with some of the problems we face every day, including: improving self-esteem; alleviating depression; creating the relationships we truly desire and deserve; overcoming addictions to alcohol, drugs, or both; and living a complete and fulfilling life. The mind and body are linked in so many strange and powerful ways that a true understanding of one's own mind is difficult at best. The Emerging Mind offers the first step toward that understanding.

EVERYDAY SOUL: Awakening the Spirit in Everyday Life  EVERYDAY SOUL: Awakening the Spirit in Everyday Life Ref: RED962P

Bradford Keeney

"At the height of my career," writes acclaimed psychotherapist Bradford Keeney, "I paradoxically began realizing that psychology could not offer the help people needed in their deepest moments of suffering. Its strategies for cure, though intelligent, were not rooted in what spiritual traditions have always known as the great healers: love and compassion." Seeking to offer a viable alternative, and drawing on his experiences with remarkable teachers around the world, Keeney shows how to awaken our minds, bodies, and souls to the fire that burns within us. "... encourages all those who hunger for the divine." - Ruth-Inge Heize.

David Burns

This bestseller presents in simple language an amazingly effective, scientifically proven method for curing anxiety, guilt, pessimism, procrastination, low self-esteem, and other "black holes" of depression. Eminent psychiatrist David Burns' techniques for lifting one's spirits and developing a positive outlook on life have been widely praised as offering methods that work rather than insights into why we do things (leaving us more knowledgeable about our behaviour patterns but still none the wiser as to how to change them). In this book you will learn how to recognise what causes your mood swings, defuse anger, overcome perfectionism, build self-esteem, overcome love and approval addiction, deal with guilt, handle hostility and criticism, cope with stress and avoid the downward spiral of depression.

Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

For over 2 decades Csikszentmihalyi has been studying those states in which people report feelings of concentration and deep enjoyment. The common thread in these states is what he calls "flow". Everyone experiences flow from time to time and will recognise its characteristics: people feel strong, alert, in effortless control, unselfconscious and at the peak of their abilities. Emotional problems seem to disappear and there is a feeling of transcendence. Flow reveals how this pleasurable state can be brought about by all of us and not just left to chance. REMAINDER MARK.

FOUR GOLD KEYS: Dreams, Transformation of the Soul & the Western Mystery Tradition  FOUR GOLD KEYS: Dreams, Transformation of the Soul & the Western Mystery Tradition Ref: RWB0368

Robert B. Clarke

An exploration of the inner universe according to Jung, covering the soul in transformation, and fusing dream process and the Western mystery traditions in a real-life journal. One man's dreaming of an entire culture's spiritual and psychological development reveals much about the nature of dreams, consciousness, and human potential. It is hoped that this comparison of religious, psychological and mythological symbology will lead to a greater understanding of our place in the grand design. Jung taught us that the non-personal collective unconscious does indeed lie behind the world of consciousness, and that the myths and religions of the world are based upon its truths. This book provides a fascinating insight into unseen realities.

HEALER: Dancing with the Healing Spirit  HEALER: Dancing with the Healing Spirit Ref: RWB0198

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.
