Vern Cherewatenko & Paul Perry
In The Diabetes Cure, Vern Cherewatenko, has developed an innovative program to cure type 2 diabetes using HCA--hydroxycitric acid--to enhance the effectiveness of the body's own insulin. HCA is a herbal compound found naturally in the brindle berry. Taken in conjunction with the mineral chromium, HCA can improve your body's response to insulin without resorting to some of the "harder" glucose-control drugs on the market. Best of all, there are no side effects. Dr. Cherewatenko counts HCA and chromium consumption as one of the nine steps to curing diabetes - others presented and discussed comprehensively in the book include exercise, stress reduction, healthy eating habits, and frequent doctor visits.

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.

‘To Die Well’ is to die with dignity – in a way that reflects the individual personality and values. It is about cultivating attitudes and feelings by which the dying person and those around him can live in the fullness of their humanity. It involves a realistic, open understanding of death as a natural process and a spiritual transformation. This book advises and instructs people who are facing death, as well as their friends, families, and caregivers, in practical methods and perspectives so they may die well. ‘To Die Well’ charts pathways from fear to courage, from loss to discovery, from denial to insight and empowers the dying person to keep effective control over decisions concerning doctors, families and friends along with wills, directives and other legal matters. It also offers complementary therapies specially tailored for both patients and caregivers. “It’s a relief to find a book on death that opens the windows and lets in the light to show how a good death rounds off a good life. ‘To Die Well’ is an excellent and timely book” – Stefan Ball, The Dr Edward Bach Centre, USA.

Anne Wilson Schaef
How can relationships be bad for your health? The answer is that many, perhaps most, of us are involved in addictive pseudo-relationships that lead not to real love and intimacy but to all the unwelcome, even destructive side-effects of any other addictive process. "Love" addictions are initially hard to admit and get to grips with because they are so well integrated into society, and even encouraged. Relationship addicts may appear friendly and open but have little real concern for the other person, hanging on to the idea of a relationship at any cost. Anne Wilson Schaef shows that we can get beyond our addictions and learn to form healthy, truly loving relationships. REMAINDER MARK.

Mark A Michaels & Patricia Johnson
A modern and comprehensive book that celebrates the sacredness of the body (and desire) within the Hindu Tantric tradition, one which aims to dispel remnants of our Puritan past that define many natural activities of our daily life, including sexual activity and desire, in negative terms. Based upon the teachings of Tantric expert Dr. Jonn Mumford, their book is much more than an erotic sex manual - though, it is that, too! The authors explain the Tantric philosophy and its principles, demystify it for beginners, and offer authentic exercises and techniques that will help turn your every moment of pleasure into an opportunity to experience the divine. "... a magnificent contribution to both the classical and contemporary literature of Tantra. This book is indeed a revelation of the essence of Tantric sexuality!" - Yogacharya Swami Ajnananda Saraswati.
