Join the original authors of The Indigo Children ten years later for a profound and frank discussion these special children--why they do what they do and what we can do to help them "The Indigo Children? Oh yeah . . . I know about them! Wasn't there a movie about that? They're those special kids who do psychic things and who have dark blue auras, right?" If that's your take on the Indigos, then you really need to read this book. The Indigo Children are not super-psychic kids with dark blue auras. In fact, the Indigo moniker has nothing to do with auras or being psychic. Some of these teenagers are actually the ones who are strapping on bombs and bringing guns to school, so you can see that the subject here is far more profound than the sensational hype that often accompanies it. This book is all about the children of our planet, what really might be happening with them, why they do what they do, and what we can do to help them and our educators survive all this. In addition, the Indigos are slowly beginning to join the work force (gasp)! After all this time, what do some in higher education say about these kids? What do industry leaders say? Humanity is evolving, so you should definitely be aware of what these individuals are saying. It's time to stop the circus that has been created around this subject and get down to finding out how to help these children survive an earth they don't understand . . . or perhaps it's just you they don't understand. . . . Join the leaders of education and industry who speak out in this book for a peek into the real issues surrounding the Indigos, and perhaps the future of humanity!

Five hundred years before the birth of Jesus, a God-realized being named Lao-tzu in ancient China dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence. The classic text of these 81 verses, called the Tao Te Ching or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good.In this book, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer has reviewed hundreds of translations of the Tao Te Ching and has written 81 distinct essays on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Lao-tzu to today's modern world. This work contains the entire 81 verses of the Tao, compiled from Wayne's researching of 10 of the most well-respected translations of text that have survived for more than 25 centuries. Each chapter is designed for actually living the Tao or the Great Way today. Some of the chapter titles are "Living with Flexibility," "Living Without Enemies," and "Living by Letting Go." Each of the 81 brief chapters focuses on living the Tao and concludes with a section called "Doing the Tao Now." Wayne spent one entire year reading, researching, and meditating on Lao-tzu's messages, practicing them each day and ultimately writing down these essays as he felt Lao-tzu wanted you to know them. This is a work to be read slowly, one essay a day. As Wayne says, "This is a book that will forever change the way you look at your life, and the result will be that you'll live in a new world aligned with nature. Writing this book changed me forever, too. I now live in accord with the natural world and feel the greatest sense of peace I've ever experienced. I'm so proud to present this interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, and offer the same opportunity for change that it has brought me."

Have you ever wondered why some relationships are wonderful and others are just catastrophic and tragic? Why do we get along with some people and with others just seem to constantly engage in bitter fighting? In this fascinating and helpful book, internationally renowned psychic Sylvia Browne examines why we form our relationships with certain individuals . . . for better or for worse. From the lifelong connection of a loving marriage to the short and bitter agony of a brief encounter leading to divorce and heartache, she reveals why we have joyful and happy relationships on the one hand and chaotic, hateful and painful ones on the other. Sylvia takes us on a remarkable excursion that covers all the different types of relationships we'll encounter in life. From our childhood experiences to our golden years, she helps us see why we form both good and bad unions, and she also explores how our themes and charts of life can interact with others in both positive and negative ways--creating either lifelong love or friendship or a situation doomed for disaster. Sylvia enables us to come to a true understanding of why we have certain compulsions and attractions for some people while being totally repulsed by others. By utilizing Sylvia's marvelous insights, we can all learn how to cultivate our relationships (and sift the wheat from the chaff) in order to live a happier and more fulfilling life.

Tâitulo del original en inglâes: The age of miracles: embracing the new midlife.
Over the years, conditioning--both internal and external--has taught you to suppress emotions, suspect others, live in a stilted manner, create dis-ease, and above all, inhibit yourself. Crafty culprits such as worry, fear, guilt, regret, anger, "nonforgiveness," self-pity, and hurt regularly trap you and trick you into joylessness. The ego delights in your inability to get rid of these negative emotions and plays games that drain you. The mind--like the cell phone you feel incomplete without--beeps, buzzes, vibrates, and sends you messages that tear you away from whatever you happen to be doing. Your concentration and focus are overwhelmed with too much data! If you're afflicted by any of these conditions, you're living in a disempowered manner and are leading an unsatisfying life. In this book, Rohini Singh will help you change all that. She explains how to keep the base of your well-being--the energy system--clean and clear, teaching you how to listen to your body and maintain your physical health. You'll learn how to plug emotional leaks, stay away from emotional traps, and recognize the ego's manipulations . . . and avoid them. You'll discover the wisdom of "switching off" your mind in order to recharge it, realizing that the only way out is within.
Is illness really just the result of external factors such as viruses, bacteria, or environmental contaminates invading the body? Or, is there something more to why we become ill? Could it be that the ancient metaphysicians were on to something when they viewed healing from the adage As a person thinketh, so shall they be? Do the mind and body truly imitate and imprint each other so what affects one affects the other? And if so, is it possible that if we acknowledge and understand the impact of these elements, we could not only restore our body back to good health, but we could actually make it better than before we became ill? Healing Happens with Your Help provides the answers to these questions and more and uncovers the hidden meanings behind illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, depression, and headaches. It looks at illness not from symptoms, but from origins; and not from the perspective of curing, but from the perspective of healing. It explores the complex relationship between emotions, attitudes, and beliefs and provides a mapping process to show you where you energetically hold these triggers in the organs, glands, muscles, and spine of your body. Most important, Healing Happens with Your Help offers insight into how you can heal your body and your life by simply changing patterns and changing thoughts.
