People Jeffrey Rediger MD & The Center for Psychological and Spiritual Development DrRediger.com explains, “…The first lesson of the spiritual life is that the phenomena are not important. What matters is what one does with an experience, or with one’s life – the fruit that it bears. That’s why The Center for Psychological and Spiritual Development is about development. If mental health is defined as the capacity to work and love, then one’s capacity for working productively and sharing love should be increased as a result.” – Jeffrey Rediger MDabout his appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show.
Spirituality Reincarnation & Karma by Jocelyn Graef
Author, Jocelyn Graef says, “Each of your thoughts and actions are felt on earth. Each expression that you individually are offering through your actions and emotions are added layer upon layer to the vibratory system of earth as whole and your own individual being as well. All is interconnected…As many of you have found yourself in past during times of change and striving, you have made soul commitment to complete this and so you come again and again during these times in history to continue your exploration and service in this area. This is your group karma, your group work. Individually, your paths are diverse and unique.”

Wheatgrass also stimulates metabolism and the body’s enzyme systems by enriching the blood. It also aids in reducing blood pressure by dilating the blood pathways throughout the body. Stimulates the thyroid gland, correcting obesity, indigestion, and a host of other complaints.”
Books The Caregiver’s Tao Te Ching: Compassionate Caring for Your Loved Ones and Yourself by William And Nancy Martin William and Nancy Martin write, “Like the original Chinese text, this book contains eighty-one chapters. Each chapter includes a poem for caregivers, evocative of the verses of the Tao Te Ching, followed by a reflection that presents practical guidance for navigating the emotional and physical hardships of caregiving. The resulting resource gently awakens readers to the grace, growth, and even joy possible at each step along their path.”
Books Man-Made Monsters: Mankind as Supreme Creator? by Dr. Bob Curran According to Warwick Associates, “In an intriguing book, Dr. Bob Curran explores the concept of Mankind’s attempts to create life and the “scientific” struggle to bring the dead back to life. Along the way there are some fascinating insights into the early world of the evolving sciences…Covering the span of history from earliest times until modern scientific experimentation, the book examines both the lore and the actual experience of the quest to create life and the myriad fears that have surrounded it. It will appeal to those who are interested in the evolution of science, the development of the concept of monsters or indeed in our own deepâ€seated fears.”

WEBSITES OF THE MONTH:
Jin Shin Jyutsu®, Inc
“The truth is that within each of us lies the power to cast all misery aside and to KNOW complete Peace and Oneness to BE that beautiful creation of perfect harmony to truly KNOW (Help) Myself”- Mary Burmeister
“Jin Shin Jyutsu® physio-philosophy is an ancient art of harmonizing the life energy in the body. Born of innate wisdom and passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth, the Art had fallen into relative obscurity when it was dramatically revived in the early 1900’s by Master Jiro Murai in Japan.
After clearing himself of a life-threatening illness, Master Murai devoted the rest of his life to the research and development of Jin Shin Jyutsu, gathering insight from a range of experiences and resources, including the Kojiki (Record of Ancient Things). The resulting knowledge of Jin Shin Jyutsu was then given to Mary Burmeister, who brought it to the United States in the 1950’s. Mary Burmeister began teaching the Art to others in the early 1960’s, and today there are thousands of students throughout the United States and around the world.
Jin Shin Jyutsu brings balance to the body’s energies, which promotes optimal health and well-being, and facilitates our own profound healing capacity. It is a valuable complement to conventional healing methods, inducing relaxation and reducing the effects of stress. Jin Shin Jyutsu employs twenty-six “safety energy locks” along energy pathways that feed life into our bodies. When one or more of the paths becomes blocked, the resulting stagnation can disrupt the local area and eventually disharmonize the complete path of energy flow. Holding these energy locks in combination can bring balance to mind, body, and spirit.
Through the dynamic Art of Jin Shin Jyutsu (Physio-Philosophy), our mission IS to create a safe environment for reawakening the true SELF. Being the testimony of this simple, profound Art of Living, made known to us by Mary Burmeister and Jiro Murai, we educate, harmonize and inspire ourselves and others through integrity, compassion, trust and freedom…”
