IAN by Craig Junjulas

| by Craig Junjulas

“During times of great tribulation, messengers from the heavens have reached down to save humanity from falling into the pits of hell. This is one of those times. As we get to know Ian, the veil is lifted and we journey to the realms of these spiritual beings. Ian is considered a problem child because he claims to see energy, communicate with animals, and speak to spirits…. his credo — “What is the worth of a lightbearer who refuses to enter the dark?” He tries to adapt, and survive as a child, but his very existence on this planet has stirred the wrath of the oldest of demons.”

The Spiritual Anatomy of Emotion: How Feelings Link the Brain, the Body, and the Sixth Sense by Michael A. Jawer with Marc S. Micozzi, M.D., Ph.D.

| by Michael A. Jawer with Marc S. Micozzi, M.D., Ph.D.

Based on differences in how each of us literally feels–our innate sensitivity–the more physical disturbances we are likely to have, from ailments such as migraines, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and post-traumatic stress to anomalous perceptions such as apparitions and involuntary out-of-body experiences. Using the latest scientific research on immunity, sensation, stress, cognition, and emotional expression, the authors demonstrate that the way we process our feelings provides a key to who is most likely to experience these phenomena and why. They explain that emotion is a portal into the world of extraordinary perception, and they provide the studies that validate the science behind telepathic dreams, poltergeist disturbances, and ESP.” Foreword by Larry Dossey, M.D

The Challenge of Your Transformation by Ingrid Bacci, PhD, CST

| by Ingrid Bacci, PhD, CST

Let yourself be adventuresome. Embrace the call of the next phase of your life. Take heart. A big heart is a courageous heart. The word courage comes from the French word “coeur” that means heart. Be in your heart. Own your life. Own your courage. Let yourself fall, so that you can find your new ground. That new ground will support you even as the old ground crumbles. Practice trusting that fact.”

Crop Circles Call for New Attention by Suzanne Taylor

| by Suzanne Taylor

“Finding out we aren’t alone would be a huge deal. And, if that were established, there could be more. If they are visiting us, the technology possessed by “the other” would have to be more advanced than ours, and what they would be capable of perhaps could help us solve the environmental problems that threaten our very survival.”

SPIRITUAL GAMES: “My Guide Is Bigger Than Your Guide” by Craig Junjulas

| by Craig Junjulas

One of the common spiritual games we play is the concept of having greater authority and righteousness because the spirit being speaking to and through us is to be respected. Be it a famous deceased person, transcended master, angel, god, or goddess…. let the value of a channeling be in the words and the works themselves, not in the authorship claimed. I have met enough people in this field to know that claiming to associate with lofty beings or a famous spirit does not guarantee wisdom and spirituality, or even normality and civility.

Quick Summer Soup Recipe with Heather Flournoy of Katonah Green

| by Heather Flourney

This time of year we have loads of fresh veggies available from gardens and farmer’s markets and local farms. I’d like to share a recipe for a quick soup I make at least once a week, often several times a week. It only takes about 20 minutes from start until it’s in your bowl. It’s easily adaptable to what you have on hand, hearty, yummy and incredibly healthy because it’s raw and therefore retains its enzyme activity and all of the nutrients of fresh vegetables.”

Spent by Frank Lipman, M.D., with Mollie Doyle

| by Cheryl Shainmark

“The key here is your environment — the amount of physical, psychological and other stressors that are wearing you down– and Lipman has designed a simple, creative and easy to follow program for adding or removing the little things that are within your control. The beauty of this program is that its baby steps — 42 of them, or 6 weeks worth — but there’s nothing radical or overwhelming, and that’s what makes it so easy to follow. If you’ve been suffering from any of these symptoms, then Spent may be the jump start that you need to get back to wellness.
