A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson
In this mega-bestselling spiritual guide Marianne Williamson shares her reflections on A Course in Miracles, a self-study program of spiritual psychotherapy, and on the application of love in the search for inner peace.
A Return to Love is about the practice of love as a daily answer to the problems that confront us. Williamson reveals how we each can become a miracle worker by surrendering all preconceived notions of how we live our lives and why, and by accepting back into our hearts all the love we were born with. Whether psychic pain is in the area of relationships, career, or health, she shows us how love is a potent force, the key to inner peace, and how by practicing love we can make our own lives more fulfilling while creating a more peaceful and loving world.
Marianne Williamson is an internationally acclaimed author and lecturer. She has published eight books, four of which (including A Return to Love) have been #1 New York Times bestsellers. Her titles include Illuminata, Everyday Grace, A Woman's Worth, and Healing the Soul of America. Williamson is the Founder and Chairman of the Los Angeles and Manhattan Centers for Living, non-profit organizations that provide free non-medical services to people living with life-changing illnesses and grief.

Anthroposophy in Everyday Life by Rudolf Steiner
This work is a collection of Rudolf Steiner's best-loved lectures containing practical insights for day-to-day living. It deals with the major task facing humanity today as it moves into the new millennium, namely, that of uniting spiritual and practical life.
Steiner coined the term ‘anthroposophy’ – meaning ‘the wisdom of the soul - as the name for his teachings. Anthroposophy was founded, and is essentially based, upon Rudolf Steiner’s prophetic intuition of the spiritual world. That world's character, as Steiner explains it, is profoundly and pervasively reflected in the Bible when its words of spiritual art are given their deeper meaning as part of a uniform and consistent theme.

You’ll See it When You Believe It by Dr. Wayne Dyer
Citing the wisdom of ancient and modern philosophers, Dr. Dyer adds incidents from his experiences to illustrate the benefits of spiritual guidance and possibilities of transformation.
Transformation of the mind into a new concept of self, in fact, is the theme of this book. In this combination of New Age concepts with psychological insights, Dr. Dyer uses anecdotes and quotes to support his idea that creative visualization, the oneness of the universe, positive thinking, and synchronicity are vehicles to a leap of consciousness. He clearly explains his theory that people are thoughts and that thought is the ultimate reality of life. Serendipity, or what Dr. Dyer believes are miracles, have given him riches that are available to all. He counsels that one must first see the human as a soul with a body - not the reverse - to realize supposedly impossible dreams.
Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, psychotherapist, lecturer, and world–famous author of the phenomenal bestseller, Your Erroneous Zones, now takes the reader to new plateaus of self–awareness in his most powerful book yet. You'll See It When You Believe It will help show you how, by tapping the truly amazing power that lies within you, you can direct the course of your own destiny

Fractal Time: The Secret of 2012 and A New World Age by Gregg Braden
In this book, this bestselling author Gregg Braden marries the modern laws of fractal patterns to the ancient concept of cycles, to demonstrate how everything from the war and peace between nations to our most joyous relationships and personal crises are the returning patterns of our past. As each pattern returns, it carries the same conditions of previous cycles - fractal patterns that can be known, measured and predicted. According to this model the returning cycles also carry a window of opportunity—a choice point—that allows us to choose a new outcome for the cycle. Through case histories that confirm the accuracy of fractal time calculations, Braden crosses the traditional boundaries of science and spirituality to answer the question that must be asked: What does fractal time tell us about 2012, and beyond? Because the cycles repeat, the seed for 2012 has already happened and the pattern already exists!
New York Times best selling author and former senior computer systems designer Gregg Braden is internationally renowned as a pioneer in bridging science and spirituality. To date, his work has led to such paradigm-shattering books as The Isaiah Effect, The God Code, and The Divine Matrix.
