“. . . a rare jewel, a powerhouse of spiritual wisdom that you can read and reread.”—Joan Borysenko, Ph.D. author of A Woman’s Journey to God and Seven Paths to God “[ Open Secrets ] invites us into the most intimate of settings, the whispered wisdom passed from an authentic Hasidic master to his student. It radiates warmth, passion for the divine, and earthy confidence in sacredness. A treasure for the spiritual seeker of any tradition.” —Judith Simmer-Brown, Naropa University, author of Dakini’s Warm Breath “ Open Secrets is my favorite way to introduce readers to the essence and depth of Judaism.”—Bo Lozoff, author and founder of the Human Kindness Foundation “A master teacher.”—Thomas Keating "A prophetic voice for a 21st-century Judaism”—Reb Zalman Schachter-Shalomi The fictional East European Hasidic Master Reb Yerachmeil writes to his hasid Herschel who has moved to America, in response to his student’s perennial questions about God, what it means to be Jewish, whether all religions are true, about death, the soul, good deeds, intermarriage and more. The rebbe writes, “My Judaism seeks only the heart of the teaching and the essence of the practice and leaves the details to others.” At the urging of his own rebbe, Shapiro, through these letters, creates a “. . . a Judaism for people who wish to learn from it as they do from Buddhism or Sufism, a Judaism for everyone.” Rabbi Rami M. Shapiro is regarded as one of the most creative voices in contemporary American Judaism. He is an award-winning poet and essayist, and his liturgies are used in prayer services throughout North America. His previous books include Minyan: 10 Principles for Living a Life of Integrity and The Way of Solomon: Finding Joy and Contentment in the Wisdom of Ecclesiastes .

Wilson has blended H.P. Lovecraft's dark vision with his own revolutionary philosophy and unique narrative powers to produce a stunning, high-tension story of vaulting imagination. A professor makes a horrifying discovery while excavating a sinister archaeological site. For over 200 years, mind parasites have been lurking in the deepest layers of human consciousness, feeding on human life force and steadily gaining a foothold on the planet. Now they threaten humanity's extinction. They can be fought with one weapon only: the mind, pushed to–and beyond–its limits. Pushed so far that humans can read each other's thoughts, that the moon can be shifted from its orbit by thought alone. Pushed so that man can at last join battle with the loathsome parasites on equal terms.

Quest for Healing – EBOOK A Story of LoveJoin Wendy on her inspirational journey as she seeks healing from the effects of her childhood diabetes. This is an inspiring story about miracles and the rekindling of hope…. Wendy spent much of her life looking for answers to the health issues caused by childhood diabetes, and because of this she discovered a wealth of knowledge in this area. She consistently recovered from health issues in ways that both confounded and inspired the medical community. After a major stroke, the medical community thought she would never speak again. But she went on to speak, write, walk, and live with passion and joy. With gangrene, things did not look good for her foot….but she found ways to heal and continue. With kidney failure, dietary factors played a significant role, but it was through a successful balance of thought, exercise, and happiness, that she was able to survive 20 years on dialysis. Wendy is living proof that anything is possible with Love, Determination, and Faith. By focusing mind, body, and spirit, she rediscovered the meaning of wellness. This is a story based on Wendy's life. Names have been changed in order to protect identities, but the story itself is truth. The process of writing this book took more than twenty-two years to unfold. The author hopes that this book will show you how to fill your days with magic and laughter. She Believes in Magic by Dr. Andre Pickersgill, MD I have known Wendy for over ten years, as a doctor and as a friend. When modern medicine had little to offer her, she showed courage and strength beyond expectation. She achieved significant, verifiable improvements in her medical condition through diet, supplements, and faith. She has taught me much about respecting patient autonomy, and I have learned to expand my reality, and experience life more fully. Reading this book has provided a fascinating glimpse of the spirit inside this person dealing with more than her share of challenges. Revealed are the pain, despair, love and joy which make Wendy more real than most people I know. And the best part is…she believes in magic. Keep Reaching for Dreamsby Dr. Alastair Pirie Chiropractor, Cosmoneurobiologist It has been said, that courage is a special kind of knowledge, not the absence of fear, but rather the realization that something else is more important than fear. It can never be an easy task to keep reaching for dreams. Strength and courage can sometimes be lonely friends, but those who can reach, walk in stardust. Wendy is just such a being. In this difficult age we are experiencing on Earth, Wendy inspires us to broaden our horizons, to move out of our narrow reality tunnels and to embrace a model of life that is permeated by intelligence and wisdom far removed from the local and mundane. “A Quest for Healing, A Story of Love,” is a remarkable piece of writing revealed to us from the heart and soul of an equally remarkable woman. Wendy’s journey has been and will continue to be a source of tremendous insight for me personally as I too continue to try to contemplate and understand the intricacies of the mind-body system. Thank you Wendy!!!!! Wendy Abelson RNCP, ROHP is a registered practitioner with the International Organization of Nutritional Consultants.
