    On a sunlit winter afternoon in Arlington, Texas, Super Bowl Sunday of 1981, young friends Trey Shelton and Kevin Curnutt rode their dirt bikes into the crosshairs of a troubled neighbor who didn't like the noise. Trey was killed instantly by the first shotgun blast. Kevin, age thirteen, was paralyzed when the second blast struck him in the head. Years later, after a long and ultimately unsuccessful rehabilitation effort to restore the use of his limbs, the cruel reality of his life began to sink in. Kevin would never be able to feed himself or drive a car or turn the pages of a book without assistance. He would never marry or have a family. Despair eventually consumed him. He thought more and more about taking his life. Then, in his darkest moment, he happened across Steven Covey's bestselling book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. It was Covey who introduced Kevin to the writings of Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl. Kevin would later discover wisdom and inspiration from disparate sources, such as mythologist Joseph Campbell, Ram Dass, and Tibetan Buddhism.What Kevin found through his contemplation and study was a place within himself of universal love and peace, an inner sanctuary that remained untouched by the tribulations of the world, a sanctuary that is available to all. He also came to understand that human beings always have a choice about how they respond to life, no matter how cruel the fates might sometimes be.In this wise, eloquent, and hopeful book, Kevin shares his path and message, and invites our troubled world to find that same place of universal love and serenity that lies within.

    Will you actively listen and follow the advice provided by your patients' inner wisdom? Will you use that wisdom to guide them in their journey to recover their spiritual and physical wellness?The author of this manual proposes that empathy and intention can tap into inner wisdom, which can enhance the effectiveness of therapeutic styles without changing their current practices. The author also introduces the concept of holographic medicine, which considers how collective karmic experiences and individual lifestyles can influence the healing process, similar to the placebo effect. By combining the therapist's intention with the patient's facilitation, optimal healing can occur, regardless of the therapeutic style being used.

    Sophia Demas's stories compellingly demonstrate that receiving signs and messages from departed friends and family is perfectly natural . . . if one is open to it. She offers no complicated formula. Some of the signs she has received came after asking for them, while others appeared unsolicited. Whether the communication comes via a dream, an inner urging to act, or from an external source, the key is to recognize it and respond with gratitude. Consciousness Beyond Death also provides scientific research on Universal Consciousness, though its existence is yet to be proven. Although scientists are studying after death communications (ADCs), Sophia challenges the reader to come to their own conclusions. With her inimitable storytelling, the events that she and her friends experienced spur hope that the mystery of life continues after what we believe to be death. One is left wondering how these awe-inspiring communications could possibly happen without the existence of Universal Consciousness.

    For this inquiry into sacred kinship, the author has taken for his text the verse from Genesis 2: "And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." The rest of the book addresses the question, "What does it mean to be a living soul?" The argument of the book dedicates itself to the proposition that our consciousness of the world is fundamentally whole. Specific texts from a wide range of sources support this hypothesis. They point to "the soul as the seat of the individual waking consciousness and of the moral and intellectual character," which is how Richard Tarnas describes the discovery that crowns the life and work of Socrates. If the soul is sacred, as traditional Western thought has claimed, if the happiness of our country and our own happiness securely rest on this foundation, as these readings argue they do, then we do well to inquire into the matter, no matter the time and effort the inquiry requires.

    There are gaps to be filled in the wealth management industry . . . and you can make the difference. Talking about money is taboo in many families, for many reasons. This lack of transparency spells opportunity for the wealth manager who can offer sane, sound, and practical advice for handling money successfully. However, many wealth management firms aren't representative of the people they serve. Most focus too narrowly on the ultrawealthy, and the business as a whole isn't as diverse as the United States--and it should be. There's a world of opportunity in the financial advisory business, particularly for young women and people of color. Up until now, the advisory business has been poorly understood, which has led to undesired barriers to entry. For the right person--someone who is entrepreneurial, loves people, and wants to build a business from the ground up--wealth management is one of the most exciting professions to be in. You're your own boss, and there's no ceiling on your income. Raj Sharma knows this better than anyone. One of the most well-respected advisors in the U.S., Raj has cultivated his business over the past thirty years. An insightful culmination of his decades of experience, The Purposeful Wealth Advisor shows you how to get started in the business of wealth management, thrive as you build your client base, own your financial security, and inspire your future.

    What would you do if you had a little more confidence? Would you take the next step in your career, assume more leading roles, set boundaries, ask for a raise, or even run for office? Doubt and imposter feelings are a big reason women hold back and play small instead of going for what they truly desire at work. Coupled with the systemic gender equity issues and the resulting burnout that plagues women in the workplace today, it's no wonder that so many women are undervaluing themselves and their abilities. These doubtful thoughts and systemic issues are expensive--they cost women (and their organizations) their peace, their potential, and their paychecks. To close the confidence gap and see more women showing up in their full potential at work, we need more women leaders at the top of organizations. Closing the Confidence Gap will show you how to advance with confidence, despite the systemic issues that women face every day at work. You'll hear deeply personal stories and walk away with practical tools to show you how to claim your role as a confident leader. It's time to own who you are, trust yourself, and take your bravest next step.
