You cheer when she cheers, cry when she cries, and see the beauty of the world anew through her eyes… If you’ve ever experienced love, divorce, depression, or any version of “the dark night of the soul” you will recognize what Gilbert is feeling, and marvel at her ability to describe those moments, much less to find humor in them. “

What if it meant a call to community outreach, a mended family relationship, or a fresh perspective on life’s priorities? Chicken Soup for the Soul® has brought cancer patients and their loved ones the courage and strength to face the disease head-on. This book also includes Elizabeth Bayer’s inspirational memoir It’s Just a Word.

Paul Mulliner is an artist and writer living in London. “As we go inward with our attention, we can know the connective presence of cosmic consciousness expressing itself as all life everywhere simultaneously. We can know ourselves as cosmic beings, the vibrational expressions or materialisations of a field of cosmic intelligence which is continuously transforming itself into all of us, moment by moment.”
Consciousness Abraham: Astonishing Power of Emotions -Esther & Jerry Hicks “The Astonishing Power of Emotions: Let Your Feelings Be Your Guide” is the title of the newest addition to The Teachings of Abraham from Esther and Jerry Hicks.

Wellbeing & Healing Tibetan Home of Hope
Tibetan Home of Hope is a home and school for children who would otherwise be abandoned — a home in the deepest sense, where young people receive loving care, food, shelter, medical attention and the practical foundation needed to develop into independent adults with a full appreciation of their Tibetan heritage.They are unique in thatthey provide for Tibetan children in their native land — where there is a desperate and immediate need. Harsh living conditions mean that each year thousands of Tibetan children are left on their own. Sadly, many of these children are sent to orphanages outside of their native country, far from their family contacts and cultural roots.
