Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few years, innovative self-help methods have convinced many people of a new worldview. Quantum Entrainment® (QE) is the newest development in this area. QE works with gentle touch that quietly activates the autonomic nervous system to spontaneously and naturally create anatmosphere in which deep healing can take place. This amazing self-help method is easy to use and needs no previous knowledge – everyone can apply it! As Dr Kinslow explains: ‘Quantum Entrainment is a very rapid healing process that anyone can do. Whether you have a broken leg or a broken heart, you need rest to heal. If you want physical, emotional or spiritual healing, you need deep rest. The deeper the rest, the deeper the healing. Pure awareness is the deepest rest you can get. I discovered a process that instantly gives the body, mind and spirit deep rest and fast healing. It works in seconds. That is what I call Quantum Entrainment.’ And what is most astonishing: not only does the treated individual receive deep, restful healing, but the person who is performing QE will also experience an immediate, prolonged sense of wellbeing. Give it a try – you will be surprised by how powerful Quantum Entrainment is! Quantum Entrainment: • works in minutes • is easily taught • requires no special training.

Download or read book The Secret Life of a Black Aspie written by Anand Prahlad and published by University of Alaska Press. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anand Prahlad was born on a former plantation in Virginia in 1954. This memoir, vividly internal, powerfully lyric, and brilliantly impressionistic, is his story. For the first four years of his life, Prahlad didn’t speak. But his silence didn’t stop him from communicating—or communing—with the strange, numinous world he found around him. Ordinary household objects came to life; the spirits of long-dead slave children were his best friends. In his magical interior world, sensory experiences blurred, time disappeared, and memory was fluid. Ever so slowly, he emerged, learning to talk and evolving into an artist and educator. His journey takes readers across the United States during one of its most turbulent moments, and Prahlad experiences it all, from the heights of the Civil Rights Movement to West Coast hippie enclaves to a college town that continues to struggle with racism and its border state legacy. Rooted in black folklore and cultural ambience, and offering new perspectives on autism and more, The Secret Life of a Black Aspie will inspire and delight readers and deepen our understanding of the marginal spaces of human existence.

Download or read book Mercurius, Or, the Marriage of Heaven & Earth written by Patrick Harpur and published by Blue Angel Gallery. This book was released on 2007 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1952 a country clergyman called Smith begins his tortuous quest for the Holy Grail of alchemy - the Philosophers' Stone which transmutes base metal to gold and confers immortality. As he pits himself against the bizarre perils of the Great Work, it becomes clear that his arcane transformations are as much spiritual as chemical. Gradually the shadow of alchemy falls over those around him; a young girl whose sudden pregnancy is a local scandal; Janet, trapped in a barren marriage; and Robert who pursues his own quest for the legendary blue glass of Chartres. Thirty years later, Eileen comes to live in Smith's vicarage. In the medieval cellar she unearths a hidden manuscript and begins to read of secret fire and mysterious prime matter, a green lion and a raven's head, a fatal conjunction of king and queen, a descent into Blackness and putrefaction. As she penetrates farther into the alchemical labyrinth, she is haunted both by her own history and by that of her neighbours, the menacing Mrs Zetterberg and the disfigured Pluto - and, finally, by the enigma of Smith himself. In separate but interwoven accounts, Smith and Eileen strive towards the one thing necessary for the Work's success - the great Secret guarded by the paradoxical Mercurius, who leads them to the zero point where Heaven is wedded to Earth and the miraculous Stone appears at the intersection of time and eternity. By reconstructing a highly sophisticated but almost forgotten world-view, Mercurius restores to us our own spiritual heritage which, rooted in the alchemists' dark retorts, will perhaps flower in the light of the future.
