Tibetan Sound Healing, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, (9781604070958) Other Format
One of the world's oldest unbroken spiritual traditions is the Bön
Buddhist tradition of Tibet. This wisdom path has survived thanks to
the efforts of a handful of dedicated lamas, such as Bön lineage holder
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche. Now, with Tibetan Sound Healing, we can
connect to the ancient sacred sounds of the Bön practice--and through
them, activate our healing potential.
The Bön healing tradition
invokes the Five Warrior Syllables--"seed" sounds that bring us to the
essential nature of mind, and release the boundless creativity and
positive qualities that are fundamental to it. Through the medicine of
sound, we can clear obstacles from our body, our energy and emotions,
and the subtle sacred dimensions of our being. In this integrated
book-and-CD learning program, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche gives us the
tools to access wisdom and compassion, and use the vibration of sacred
sound to purify our body, connect with our inherent perfection and
completeness, and awaken spiritual virtue.
Includes Guided CD
Bön
spiritual master Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche guides you in the use of each
of the Five Warrior Syllables, then teaches key practices to harness
the medicine of these sacred sounds for purification, vitality, and
awakening your natural mind.
Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche is the founder and resident teacher of
Ligmincha Institute in Virginia, and was one of the first lamas to
bring the Bön Dzogchen teachings to the West. He lived and studied with
Tibetan masters of Bön Buddhism from the age of thirteen until
completing an eleven-year course of traditional studies at the Bönpo
Monastic Center, Dolanji, Himachal Pradesh, India. Rinpoche is the
author of several books, including Healing with Form, Energy, and
Light: The Five Elements in Tibetan Shamanism, Tantra, and Dzogchen and
Awakening the Sacred Body.

Radical Self-Forgiveness, Colin C. Tipping, (9781604070903) Paperback
Most of us have plenty of experience with self-blame and guilt-but we
are often at a loss when it comes to forgiving ourselves. According to
Colin Tipping, this is because our idea of forgiveness usually requires
a victim and a perpetrator-which is impossible when we play both roles
at the same time. Tipping's Radical Forgiveness method allows us to
navigate this dilemma for deep and lasting healing. With Radical
Self-Forgiveness, he presents a definitive manual for gaining freedom
from excessive inner criticism and self-sabotaging beliefs. What's
"radical" about Colin Tipping's approach to forgiveness? "It's not
about telling ourselves a new story about something that happened," he
says. "It's about creating a profound shift at the spiritual level."
Based on proven techniques from Tipping's world-renowned forgiveness
workshops, here is a practical guidebook for resolving our deepest
internal wounds-and inviting transformation that can instantly change
our lives.
Colin Tipping was born in England and taught at London University
before immigrating to the United States in 1984. With his wife JoAnn,
he cofounded the Georgia Cancer Help Program and Together We Heal,
Inc., and founded the Institute for Radical Forgiveness Therapy and
Coaching. He is author of the international bestseller Radical
Forgiveness,/em> (Sounds True, 2010). He lives in Marietta, Georgia.

Subtle Body, (1591796717), Cyndi Dale, Textbooks
All healers are "energetic" healers, whether they know it or not.
Because every health issue has a physical and an energetic component,
even a simple physical treatment like bandaging a cut also impacts the
body's spiritual, mental, and emotional welfare. The Subtle Body is a
comprehensive encyclopedia devoted to the critical world of our
invisible anatomy, where so much of healing actually occurs. Compiled
by intuitive healer and scholar Cyndi Dale, this 500-page full color
illustrated reference book covers: What is the "subtle body"? New
scientific understanding of our quantum-state existence and the unseen
fields that determine our physical condition; True integrative care:
how combining Eastern energetic modalities with Western scientific
rigor yields optimum results; The meridians, fields, and chakras:
detailed information and diagrams about the role of these energetic
structures in our overall health; Energy-based therapy principles from
the world's healing traditions including Ayurveda, Qigong, Reiki,
Quabalah, and many more.
Praise for
The Subtle Body

than anything I have seen. If you are a novice interested in Energy
Medicine, this is a valuable and essential text. If you are an energy
practitioner, this book provides a stunning foundation."--C. Norman
Shealy, M.D., Ph.D., author of The Creation of Health

The Visionary, Kurt Wilt, (9780982327401) Paperback
Joseph Rael (Beautiful Painted Arrow) has been called our greatest
living shaman. Here, in the first scholarly examination of his
remarkable life and teachings, Kurt Wilt, PhD places this Native
American mystic in the context of more familiar writers and mystic
traditions, from Sufism and the Kabbalists to Hildegard of Bingen,
Joseph Campbell and William Blake. In doing so, he brilliantly uncovers
vital connections between Rael's Native American worldview and the
deepest roots of visionary teachings.
The Visionary,
far from being a dry philosophical treatise, tells the fascinating
story of a life lived in tune with the Vast Spirit and inspires the
reader to learn more and to implement the visionary's teachings through
the meditations.
This book is for the reader ready to go
deeper into the emerging worldview that acknowledges humans' connection
to earth and sky, to matter and the unmanifested, to all that is, and
all that is coming to be. It is not a book to be read and forgotten,
but opens a path to a new way of knowing and being for humans now.
Kurt Wilt, PhD is Associate Professor of English at Saint Leo
University, a specialist in comparative mysticism and Native American
literature. He has studied with Joseph Rael for 25 years and attended
Joseph's mystery school workshops in northern New Mexico.

The Book of Enoch the Prophet, Richard Laurence, (9780932813855) Paperback
This is a reprint of the Apocryphal Book of Enoch: The Prophet which
was first discovered in Abyssinia in the year 1773 by a Scottish
explorer named James Bruce. Bruce, a sort of 18th century Indiana
Jones, may have seen the Ark of Covenant at Axum, and was able to
obtain the ancient Coptic Christian text, approximately 2000 years old.
In 1821 The Book of Enoch was translated by Richard Laurence and
published in a number of successive editions, culminating in the 1883
edition. Like the Dead Sea Scrolls, or the Nag Hammadi Library, the
Book of Enoch, translated from the original Ethiopian Coptic script, is
a rare book that was suppressed by the early church and thought
destroyed. Today it is back in print in this expanded, deluxe edition,
using the original 1883 revised text.

three, and sometimes all seven approaches as they try to deal with
difficult problems to achieve long-term relief.
