Keith Kuegel - happily married and running a successful construction company in Vermont - suddenly got seriously injured in a slippery-ice car accident. In a coma for 3 days with massive neurological damage, his surgeons tried to repair his damaged brain and spine, and ease his chronic pain - but without much success. So Keith had to try on his own, beyond medical hope, to regain his life and work and love and all the rest. After over a decade of non-stop struggle and at times seemingly-miraculous improvement, Keith teamed with psychologist John Selby to write this no-holds-barred inspirational healing account. In addition to describing various healing modalities that generated significant results, in this book Keith will: Share new psychological insights into PTSD recovery Expose the inner strategies needed to survive a tragedy Identify genuine healers using various methodologies Explore the new science of inherited epigenetic traits Show how chronic pain can lead to deep awakening Reveal spiritual revelations emerging from life's disasters My Path To Healing is highly personal, totally honest and sometimes even funny, sharing the author's core insights into the interaction of pain, surrender, and transendence. Opening wide the windows of hope, compassion and joy, Keith's story expands the spirit of exploration into new realms of physical recovery, psychological healing, and spiritual breakthrough.

Informed that his renegade-scientist son is in jail for murder and domestic-terrorist activity, cattle rancher Tyson Hadley gets caught in a convoluted investigation of spiritual revelation dampered by quite radical murder. On a rainy morning in 1969 a brilliant San Francisco Seminary student ceremoniously ingests a psychedelic - and becomes either psychotic or enlightened. When he begins speaking publically as if channeling the new Jesus, somebody shoots him dead. The angel is put down - and his best friend Bob Hadley gets arrested for that crime, and also accused of stealing four quarts of pure LSD from a federal research center. Struggling to deal with a devious MK-Ultra mind-manipulation conspiracy, a wild-cop love affair and a perverted CIA agent - plus Alan Watts and two more murders - deputy-sheriff Tyson and his son Bob battle to maintain their father-son relationship while chasing to ground a bizarre home-grown terrorist.

"MIND DANCE/Poemic Provocations" offers the best of John Selby's poems and lyrics - 110 personally-chosen selections with a mixture of reflection, inspiration and provocation, mellowed by country humor reflecting his cattle-ranch roots, and inspired by a lifetime of psychological and spiritual exploration and invention. This new book exposes the urgent impulses that have driven John to his present business engagement with our economic and social evolution. Before making peace with America's economic system, John as a young man was in fact quite a revolutionary, known for his deeper examination of what seemed wrong in our society. This collection of poems and lyrics reflects his evolution into harmony with cultural realities, but also holds intact his core revelations of the transcendence required for genuine, break-through change. But most important, for this particular dimension of John's life-time writing and work, are the words themselves - the beauty and power and presence of human expression in response to life experience. There is much love here on these pages, often startling and continually offering John's unique examination of the very guts of American culture. John is a realist but also a visionary - and this slim volume of his poems is the strongest, most compressed expression of this urgently-needed vision of where we go from here ... enjoy!
