Today's world urges us to look outward for life's meaning and purpose--but our inner lives are the true source of the deeper knowing that gives life meaning. In Finding the Wild Inside, Marilyn Hagar encourages readers to discover that creative place inside us that knows there is more to life than we are currently living--the less rational part of ourselves that she calls our "wild inside," a place most of us have not been taught to navigate. Using stories from her own life--from infancy through caring for her elderly parents as an adult--Hagar shows us how, through playing in the arts, contemplating our nightly dreams, fostering our intuition, and reconnecting to Mother Nature, we can discover our own authentic wild self. Opening to this part of ourselves, she teaches, isn't so much a search as it is a listening, a curiosity, a playfulness, and a learning how to think symbolically, all of which can be cultivated. Most of all, it takes a willingness to lay down our egos and open ourselves to the awe and wonder of the wild universe of which we are a part. Instructive and inspiring, Finding the Wild Inside is a blueprint to living life from the inside out--and, in doing so, walking a path of authenticity and belonging.
Once in the perception of spiritual understanding, we are free to conceptualize rather than rationalize. Conceptualization allows us to realize that we believed reality to be, is merely one aspect of truth. Spiritual understanding is our key to awareness and truth. Like the strands of a tapestry, beautifully woven together, spiritual understanding, awareness and truth are synonymous. Their weave, color and beauty bring us a much greater perspective of life; a picture filled with beauty, movement, resonance, and love of life.

- Have you ever been labeled as "too emotional"?
- Do you get overwhelmed during confrontations and arguments?
- Do you take on other people's emotions and stress?
- Do you like being outside, walking barefoot and connecting with nature? Does This Sound Like You?
- I have trouble sleeping and often have bouts of insomnia.
- Sometimes people in my life don't understand that I need my alone time.
- I have a hard time setting healthy boundaries for myself.
- I can become anxious or worried for no reason. If any of this sounds familiar, you're probably an empath. Empaths take on the emotions of others in addition to their own, so it can be hard to handle so many feelings at once. This book is full of easy-to-use interactive prompts and expert tips and techniques that will help you learn how to embrace your emotions and develop your empath gifts.
How I Found God in Everyone and Everywhere captures for a general audience the spiritual shift away from a God "up there" and "out there" and towards an immanent divine right here. It's built around the personal journeys of a close-knit group of prominent contributors. Their spiritual visions of immanence, sometimes called "panentheism," are serving as a path of spiritual return for a growing number of seekers today. Contributors include Deepak Chopra, Richard Rohr, Matthew Fox, Rupert Sheldrake, Cynthia Bourgeault, Ilia Delio, Keith Ward, John B. Cobb Jr., Loriliai Biernacki, Marjorie H. Suchocki, and Rabbi Bradley Shavid Artson.
"The Jealousy Cure unlocks the positive power of jealousy for happy relationships."
--Foreword Reviews
"Solid counsel for those whose relationships are plagued by jealousy and the individuals it targets."
--Library Journal starred review
Could jealousy be a positive thing? In this groundbreaking book, Robert L. Leahy--author of the hugely popular self-help guide, The Worry Cure--invites you to gain a greater understanding of your jealous feelings, keep jealousy from hijacking your life, and create healthier relationships.
We've all heard tales of the overly jealous spouse or significant other. Maybe we've even been that jealous person, though we may not want to admit it. It's hard to imagine anyone sailing through life without either having feelings of jealousy or being the target of someone's jealousy. But what if jealousy isn't just a neurotic weakness? What if it signals that your relationship matters to you? In short--what if jealousy serves a purpose?
In The Jealousy Cure, renowned psychologist Robert L. Leahy takes a more nuanced approach to tackling feelings of jealousy. In this compelling book, you'll uncover the evolutionary origins of jealousy, and how and why it's served to help us as a species. You'll also learn practices based in emotional schema theory, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness to help you overcome the shame jealousy can bring, improve communication with your partner, and ultimately make room for jealousy while also making your relationship more meaningful. You will learn that confronting jealousy in your relationship does not have to be a catastrophe, but can redirect you and your partner to build more trust, acceptance, and connection.
We often feel jealous because we fear losing the things or people that matter to us the most. With this insightful guide, you'll discover how jealousy can both help and hurt your relationship, and learn proven-effective skills to keep jealousy in its place.

The beloved spiritual teacher builds on the message of his enduring New York Times and international bestseller The Four Agreements with this profound guide that takes us deeper into the tradition of Toltec wisdom, helping us find and use the hidden power within us to achieve our fullest lives.
In The Four Agreements, Don Miguel Ruiz introduced seekers on the path to enlightenment to the tenets of Mesoamerican spiritual culture--the ancient Toltec. Now, he takes us deeper into Native American practice, and asks us to consider essential questions that drive our lives and govern our spiritual power. Three eternal questions can help us into our power and use it judiciously:
At each stage in our lives, we must ask these simple yet deeply profound questions. Finding the answers will open the door to the next stage in our development, and eventually lead us to our complete, truest selves. But as Don Miguel Ruiz makes clear, we suffer if we do not ask these questions--or if we fail to pay attention to their answers--because we either never act on our power or use it destructively. Only when power is anchored in our identity and in reality will it be able to be in synch with the universe--and be of true benefit to ourselves and to others.
The three questions provide a practical framework that allows readers to engage with Ruiz's transformative message and act as a vehicle for overcoming fear and anxiety and discovering peace of mind. An essential guide for all travelers pursuing self-knowledge, understanding, and acceptance, The Three Questions is the next step in our unique spiritual metamorphosis.
