Lost Worlds of Ancient America by Frank Joseph
"Real-life evidence
from this book confirms that our continent was visited and influenced by
visitors from Europe and the Near East hundreds, even thousands of
years before its "official" discovery in 1492. More than two dozen noted
academics, researchers, and writers have contributed to this
myth-shattering volume...
Frank Joseph is the Editor-in-Chief of the magazine, Ancient American, which since it’s establishment
nearly two decades ago has popularized non-conformist archaeology and confronted
scientific orthodoxy with documentation of artifacts of the ancient world and with the latest
breakthroughs in genetic and forensic sciences.

The Wondrous Journey into the Depth of Our Being by Ilie Cioara
"A practical book on meditation and enlightenment, a must read for any spiritual seeker. A more poetic Eckhart Tolle; Kahlil Gibran meets Krishnamurti. Ilie Cioara's message is original and unique, as he never travelled to India and never belonged to any traditional school. By practicing the silence of the mind, through an all-encompassing attention, we discover and fulfill our innermost potential of becoming one with the divine spark that lies dormant within us."

You Are the Healer by Gene Krackehl
"This book is a “must-read” for anyone contemplating becoming a hands-on energy healer, but others may benefit from it as well...
There are practical tips and exercises for real, every-day events, such as defusing a tense situation, making a presentation to a hostile or distracted audience, figuring out your life purpose, and more. All readers can learn how to do the relaxation exercises or how to “run” energy on themselves even if they have no interest in becoming a healer."

the deep despair that had become her life and she showed greater and
greater strides allowing the true light of her higher self into the

A New Way to be Human by Robert V. Taylor
"Robert V. Taylor’s riveting personal story and the stories he relates of others converge on the challenge to discover A New Way to Be Human, using 7 Spiritual Pathways to Becoming Fully Alive. Against the odds—spine surgery as a youth, anti‐apartheid activist, self‐exile from his native South Africa—Taylor becomes a priest whose coming out as gay prevents an opportunity to serve as a bishop but provides yet another opportunity to become fully alive! Thankfully, the friendship and inspiration of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace prize honoree, encourages Taylor to reject “victimhood” and embrace a winner’s attitude. Taylor’s philosophy grows from his life experiences and that of many others whose stories, deftly woven together, “coach” readers in overcoming adversity with grace and arriving at our destiny with dignity."

Countdown to Coherence by Hazel Courteney
"
Countdown to Coherence raises interesting and sometimes controversial questions and issues. (Fans of The Secret can learn why sometimes wishing your hardest for something fails to manifest the desired outcome.) Courteney's premise that we, as a society, are evolving toward coherence, or enlightenment, poses new and interesting ideas of what exactly we're headed toward -- God? Home? A Utopian society? The author's exploration of these topics and possible future scenarios (both good and bad) are intriguing, and worth the read."

Synchronicity by Dr. Kirby Surprise
"Synchronistic events (SE) are those uncanny coincidences in which the environment seems to be speaking directly to us through events. In my work as a psychologist, I have clients who report radio and television broadcasts, random events of all sorts, comment on what they are thinking as if something was reading their minds. Psychologists call this experience "Thought of Reference." "
