Using Aromatherapy to Calm Your Frazzled Fido
by Kristen Leigh Bell,
Certified
Master Aromatherapist
The use of nature’s most concentrated
botanical substances- essential oils, is an excellent way to calm dogs who
are fearful, agitated and hyperactive. The very nature of these substances
is such that they work quickly and do not leave the animal in a drugged or
listless state, as common tranquilizers such as Valium do. Unlike herbal
calming tablets, which take time to digest, aromatherapy essential oils
are inhaled and quickly begin their work.

The View from Nebo: How Archeology is Rewriting the Bible & Reshaping
the Middle East
Genesis
by Amy Dockser Marcus The history of the Israelites
begins with the story of a family, the personal odyssey of Abraham, his
wife Sarah, their son Isaac and his wife Rebecca, their grandson Jacob,
and Jacob's twelve sons. Throughout the Bible, but especially in its first
five books —Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy — we
follow every detail of their increasingly complex lives, sharing their
betrayals, deceptions, and multitude of sins. Only much later, after a
miraculous escape from slavery in Egypt, a forty—year sojourn in the
desert, and their conquest of Canaan, is it clear that somewhere along the
way this family has become a dynasty and, finally, a nation. CLICK

Manifesting:
Create Your Own Reality
by Nisandeh Neta
I've experimented with
conscious manifesting techniques for 13 years now. For 5 years I have taught others the tools that I myself have learned in a
course called 'Manifesting Results'. Some people come to the course with a preconception that I'm going to
teach them how to manifest. The bad news is that I'm not going to do that.
The good news is that you already DO manifest everything in your life. You always have.
Since we all already create our own realities, what we do in the course is
slow down the creative process and learn how this is done, in order to understand the principals behind and in so doing adjust things and create
something different.

TO READ Failure
Is: Learning, Misspelled
by Laura Burkey
Is it not true that when a 1 year old falls
after attempting her first few steps we call it learning (not failing) to
walk? Is it not true that when a 5 year old falls off his bike we call it
learning (not failing) to ride a bike? And, when a 15 year old has her first heartbreak, we call it learning (not
failing) to know what true love is?

Recommended Book |
In You Own the Power, psychic medium Rosemary Altea departs
from her usual autobiographical format to write a self-help book for
those who wish to develop their sixth sense. Filled with riveting
true-life ghost stories, You Own the Power takes the reader
step by step through lessons and exercises Altea developed in 20
years of teaching students how to get in touch with the spirit
world. Readers are taught relaxation, meditation, and visualization
techniques; methods for producing positive thought processes; how to
generate energy through color meditations; and even how to heighten
the five common senses. The course ultimately leads to developing an
intimate relationship with oneself, to hearing the heartbeat of the
soul, to "owning" one's power. The apparent point of the
practice (and it does take practice) is that if you can't sense your
own soul, how can you expect to perceive the soul of someone who has
passed to another realm? This is a course for beginners, though
anyone can benefit from Altea's loving insights.

Students
Discover Unexpected Reward At
The Acupressure Therapy Institute |
Acupressure Shiatsu Demonstration
|
|
by Bob Olson,
OfSpirit.com Editor |
Upon
attending an open house at Barbara Blanchard’s Acupressure
Therapy Institute (ATI), I discovered an unexpected
benefit to learning about energy. I went to the lecture and
demonstration anticipating a rather predictable discussion on the
benefits of acupressure shiatsu. What I learned, however, came as a
surprise. I discovered how students of acupressure shiatsu gained
much more than an education toward a new fulfilling career; they
also gained an education about something that would forever improve
their personal lives, as well.
The
open house became a remarkable testimonial to the benefits of being
a student of energy. In two fast-moving hours, I witnessed students
and teachers alike enthusiastically expressing the personal
benefits—not just the vocational benefits—gained from their
education. Interestingly, I don’t think the speakers this day were
aware of the impact their words presented. The open house was
clearly not rehearsed. In fact, ATI program director, Barbara
Blanchard, told me she was lucky just to get everyone to show up on
such a beautiful day—never mind rehearse the presentation, too. I
believe the spontaneity of these testimonials is partly the reason
they came through so inspiringly. I am grateful to have experienced
this story of which I am about to share.
