This was one of my first introductions to the linking of quantum physics and spirituality, and what an exciting find it was! It pointed me in the direction of an exhilarating life journey. Although Zukav wrote this book in 1979, it is still a wonderful starting point for the reader whose intellect and spirit are open to exploring the connections between quantum theory, particle physics, relativity and eastern spiritual philosophies. Zukav is not a quantum physicist, thankfully, for the lay reader. If you are looking for more science, I recommend you explore Capra. But for the rest of us, this information is very accessible in Zukav\'s writing. I found his understanding of the impact of Newtonian physics, Quantum physics, and eastern spirituality to be life-changing.
Infinite Mind by Dr. Valerie Hunt
Infinite Mind is an exciting step into understanding the human mind from a bioenergetic point of view. It will be intriguing for those who have intuitively been drawn to a belief in ESP, remote viewing, self-healing and other \'metaphysical\' aspects of the human psyche. This is a classic on human energy fields and understanding the impact energy fields have on our body. Dr. Hunt describes a fascinating experiment where participants are deprived of the electromagnetic field normally provided by the earth. The rapid emotional decline of the participants in the depleted environment is astounding. It is an interesting study for those who promote the use of magnetic products at a time when we know the earth\'s magnetic field is depleting.
Taking the Quantum Leap by Fred Alan Wolfe
Wolfe provides another great starting point for the new reader of quantum physics and consciousness. What is matter? - are we waves or particles? - amazingly, it all depends on the observer! There is no reality until it is perceived! Welcome to the bizarre world of quantum physics and the upheaval it has created in a Newtonian-based world! You discover that the mind creates the universe. That YOU are the YOU-niverse! In this updated version, Wolfe will dazzle you even more with a short journey into the latest research on parallel universes! This is a favorite!
Lynne McTaggart is a journalist whose curiosity into quantum physics and the power of the mind prompted the writing of this book. It is an intriguing collection of studies and research projects in three main areas: the Resonating Universe, which explores the theory of frequencies; the Extended Mind, which looks at how the observer is creating reality; and lastly, Tapping into the Field, which explores collective consciousness. Along with Gary Zukav and Fred Alan Wolfe, this author has greatly influenced my understanding of the Law of Attraction and it\'s content plays a significant part in the content of the Attracting Success seminar.
The Hidden Connection by Fritjof Capra
The Tao of Physics by Fritjof Capra
The Turning Point: Science, Society and the Rising Culture by Fritjof Capra
Communicating through a channeled collective consciousness\' called Abraham, Ester Hicks has provided the source of inspiration for most of the Law of Attraction work that is emerging today, including works by Wayne Dyer, Joe Vitale and Michael Losier. The message resonates at a level of real \'knowing\' within each of us because the Law of Attraction is working all the time, bringing you more of what you give your time, energy, and focus to, whether wanted or not. The message is clear and the book provides simple \'how-to\' techniques to attract more of what you want into your life. Some of the techniques have been included in the Attracting Success seminar.
Ask and it is Given by Esther and Jerry Hicks Part II
After reading part I you will naturally be driven to pick up The Processes- Part II.
With this book you are again guided by Abraham, through Esther and Jerry Hicks. We all want to know how to manifest all our desires, like: Money, A Better Job, Weight Loss, Happiness, Good Health etc.. How long will it take? Can I do it? How do I do it? This book will not only teach you how to do, get and be what it is you want, but you’ll be given exercises and entertaining ways to practice this. Money Games! Yes, you really can have fun with money! Organization? Simple. For this one I would personally suggest the Audio Book, because you’ll want to hear it again and again.
After some practice, you will be the master and creator of your days.
Amazing Power of Deliberate Intention:Living the Art of Allowing by Ester & Jerry Hicks
I have to leave you to form your own opinion on this one! I found it quite repetitious. I felt the last half of the book was a bit of \'over-kill\' on the techniques. However, I have also had many people tell me they found this book really helped them to understand the concepts! So, you decide! ... as for the \'channeling\' - I am ambivalent about what is happening here. If you share my feelings, I encourage you to look beyond it. The message the Hicks are bringing to the world - regardless of how it \'got here\' - is critically important and should not be overlooked because we may not understand or agree with the concept of it\'s messenger.
Attractor Factor by Joe Vitale
Much of Vitale\'s previous work is in marketing, so I couldn\'t help feeling this journey into marketing and the spiritual, was nothing more than a good marketing ploy to capture a new audience and create a bestseller. It does read a little like a collection of the \'best-selling\' ideas of the day - even a little applied kinesiology thrown in to capture that audience! Having said that, I have included it here as there is a good 5-step process that could bring clarity. I, also, think you need to be familiar with all the ideas that are emerging related to using the Law of Attraction in your life, including financial abundance. You might want to borrow it - then decide if it should be part of your permanent collection!
This book is about "The Power of Thinking Without Thinking". How many times do we ponder over a decision? Collect data, do research, get advice, gather evidence, apply caution, spend months being sure the decision is "just right". This book will take you to a place within yourself, your Intuitive instant. We all know them. Your first thought - a hunch - a feeling. Yes, in a blink of an eye, in less than two seconds, you can make decisions every bit as good as a decision made with caution. In fact, even better! Even for the most complex problems. This book helps you learn to trust and know your intuitive self!
Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting (2005) by Lynne Grabhorne
My favorite part of this book is that the chapters are just a few pages long! That meant I could pick it up and start at any point and get a great amount of information. Lynn writes like she is sitting across from you. She’s real and shares some of her own \'up and down\' experiences with the Law of Attraction. She shares how being IN good vibration, and being OUT of good vibration, has personally affected her life, income and employment. This book teaches you to dream, to deliberately create your world, to learn that you have choices to enjoy life to it\'s fullest. You can have more fun, lighten up and truly connect with your Source energy. You will gain a greater sense of freedom and easily learn what to do in the face of resistance. You will learn to recognize how small differences can create a change in your feelings. Get Jazzed Up! This book will help you in simple steps to start writing a new script for your life; a script of happiness, wealth, health, and harmony with the people around you. You will understand the magnetic pull you have through your feelings and thoughts. And, you will learn to recognize the signs of your guidance system. You will truly discover the power of your feelings.
Law of Attraction by Michael Losier
Michael\'s book was my first introduction to the \'how-to" of the Law of Attraction and writing a \'how-to\' book on this topic take confidence in your teachings. There are many conceptual books out there - but is this a skill that can be developed? ... Michael argues that it is. I have studied with Michael and had him work with some of my colleagues to prove his techniques were sound. He has had a great deal of influence on my work and I think this will be one of the future classics on this topic. A first read for anyone starting to explore the Law of Attraction, at any age. Michael\'s awareness of Neural Linguistic Programming (NLP) helps to make this book pithy and memorable. You must have this one in your library!
Power of Intention by Dr. Wayne Dyer
Inspire: Your Ultimate Calling by Dr. Wayne Dyer
This book will renew your faith. We are all interconnected divine creations. All creation has purpose. Our purpose is to be "God - like". The EGO, - "Etching God Out" - gets in our way. Our societey is so ego-driven...“ We are what we acquire” “We are what others think of us.” “We are separate from everyone else.” Then, there is family, school and media also shaping our interpretation of reality. The life of Spirit, that we are born to live, is one opposite to our man-made reality of bad news, conflicts, hard work, and struggles. It is one of God Surrender - one based in faith. Dyer, shares with us how to recognize the God within us and heed our ultimate calling to feel good, be joyous, have peace and contentment in our daily life. You learn to remove resistance and allow yourself to be in Spirit. Only then, will you recognize the Voice of Inspiration. Once in a state of inspiration, things flow with ease, people come into your life, things happen, and so-called, coincidences, are seen as part of the divine process. Dyer outlines this process beautifully through examples of his own life experiences. This book inspires you and opens the flood gates of inspiration. You will recognize your own previous inspired moments for what they truly were: Source energy experiences!
Age of Spiritual Machines by Ray Kurzweil
Molecules of Emotion - the Science behind Mind-Body Medicine by Candice B. Pert PhD
Dr. Candice Pert is a wonderful \'deviant\' from her scientific world. A highly respected research biologist, she has expanded her path of study to realize the power of mind, thoughts, belief and physical well-being on the outcomes of our lives. I love her admonishment to scientists... "we must stop worshiping a dispassionate \'truth\' and expecting the experts to lead us to it. There\'s a higher intelligence, one that comes to us via our very molecules and results from our participation in a system far greater than the small, circumscribed one we call ego, the world we receive from our five senses alone."
Hands of Light - a Guide to healing Through the Human Energy Field by Barbara Ann Brennan
Brennan, a former research scientist for NASA, is a practising energy healer. This book is quite detailed and certainly provides a great reference for those already involved in body energy work. It gives a good sense of what is happening in this field as we explore the implications of energy and blocked energy in our physical, psychological and spiritual health. "All suffering is caused by the illusion of separateness, which generates fear and self-hatred, which eventually causes illness." "Love is the face and body of the universe. It is the connective tissue of the universe, the stuff of which we are made. Love is the experience of being whole and connected to Universal Divinity."
Conversations with God : complete set (2005) by Neale Donald Walsch
Ever wish you could just have God answer your questions? - RIGHT NOW! I could not put this book down. I felt as if every page I turned, every word I read, God was speaking directly to me. I think this book becomes very personal for each individual who reads it. And that is what God would intend it to be. In this book, you will find your Soul, your Spirit, AND who YOU really are. You will find that "Wanting" is good. And that experiencing Joy , Happiness, Wealth, and Love are all part of what you were created for.
Annie Besant is one of the great writers of the Theosophical movement of the early 1900\'s and upon whose wisdom much of the future writings about the power of our thoughts are based. Without having knowledge of quantum energy, these early writers described a body functioning as an energy being, interconnected with the total Source energy of every living thing. She poses challenging questions such as, "How does thought originate? - is memory a self-initiated vibration? - what is concentration? - how does meditation work? " The reading of the works of the theosophists is a bit heavy and, as Annie Besant suggests in this little book, are best read for 5 minutes and pondered for ten. Then, you truly will expand your Thought Power.
Creating Affluence by Deepak Chopra
Chopra is, indeed, one of the master teachers of our time on spirituality, personal growth and success. I like this little book as an ideal gift for you and your kids. It is a gift to be read and enjoyed as a family. It is written in simple inspirational segments from A-Z. Whatever you hold your attention to will enhance and appear in your life. What a great way to sit down as a family and, together, hold and manifest these thoughts. Imagine thinking about this..."Wealth consciousness is so much more than simply having the ability to make money."... or this learning..."bliss is when you are happy for no reason at all, for your mere existence ...a state of bliss is a state of pure joy."
I was first introduced to applied kinesiology more than ten years ago. I must admit I was skeptical and confused about the origins of this technique. This book helped me understand the evolution from the original work done in the 60\'s by Dr. George Goodhart, to Dr. Hawkin\'s application to consciousness and truth. The technique is clearly explained in Diamond\'s book and is easy for anyone to grasp and apply. I have used the technique on a regular basis and I include it in the skills taught in \'Attracting Success\'. I have reservations about the wide range of applications being presented today but I believe the work done by Hawkins and Diamond has sufficient evidence to suggest its merit.
My favorite part of this DVD is the behind the scenes story of Bob Proctor. Bob delayed responding to a phone message asking him to participate in this movie. By the time his assistant made contact with the Australian-based film company, they said it was probably too late since they were already filming in Colorado, USA. Guess where Bob happened to be on that day! What a coincidence! The DVD is a good introduction to the Law of Attraction with many of the authors you see on our book review list. This DVD forms the basis of our The Secret to Attracting seminar. One benefits from viewing it many times.
"The Big Blue" - (Directors cut 1988)
The original French-produced film (this is the American version) is truly a classic. Dr. David Hawkins in \'Truth vs Falsehood\' evaluation ranks it as one of the highest films ever produced for TRUTH. It centers on the sea - the mother of us all. It explores life, freedom, choices - a \'must-see\' for those on an existential journey.
The Higher Self by Deepak Chopra, M.D.
This 12 side tape or CD series takes you through a personal quest from determining "What is life all about?" to "Opening the Gateway to Immortality". Chopra is a pioneer into the energy medicine of the future that treats wholistically the physical, psychological and spiritual body. Here you will learn the scientific evidence that verifies the ancient spiritual truths of how the body and soul are connected and that your higher self is, "the you inside you", awaiting your awakening. You are the one who is creating your reality - and you can achieve that higher self through your own free will.
