THOUGHT
PRAYER OF
ST. FRANCIS
OF ASSISI
LORD, make me a channel of thy peace
that where there is hatred, I may bring love
that where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of
forgiveness
that where there is discord, I may bring harmony
that where there is error, I may bring truth
that where there is doubt, I may bring faith-
that share there is despair, I may bring hope
that where there are shadows, I may bring light
that where there is sadness, I may bring joy.
Lord, grant that I may seek rather to comfort
than to be comforted
to understand than to be understood
to love, than to be loved.
For it is by self-forgetting that one finds.
It is by forgiving that one is forgiven.
It is by dying that one awakens to Eternal Life.
Amen. |

Self-Coaching: How to Heal Anxiety and Depression
The
prevailing therapeutic value of trying to change
cognitive thought processes in order to ward off
depression and anxiety is not new. However, the approach
in this book puts the primary responsibility for making
the change on the sufferer of either condition. For
those who are uncomfortable with the thought of entering
therapy or using medication, the self-coaching work here
may be just the ticket to greater freedom from
depression and anxiety. (There are a few useful
self-tests.) As an alternative to traditional
psychiatric options, the self-coaching and
"self-talk" prescribed in the book may work to
talk oneself out of temporary mild or moderate
depression. Sufferers of major clinical depression might
want to combine the approach here with therapy or
medication.

The Seven Whispers: Listening to the Voice of Spirit
The
connection with our spirit is like a phone line,
explains Christina Baldwin in The Seven Whispers.
"Sometimes I turn the ringer off. Sometimes I
ignore the ringing. Sometimes I pick up the phone with
suspicion. Sometimes I get impatient with the
interruption." The irony, of course, is that
"unlike a lot of other calls, the one from Spirit
is the one we are hoping to receive." Baldwin
(Lifes Companion) excels in helping readers converse
with the divine. Here, she devotes a chapter to each of
the "Seven Whispers of spiritual commonsense":

Finding Your Own North Star : Claiming the Life You Were
Meant to Live
Put the
telescope away; the North Star mentioned here is a human
body, not a heavenly one. And like Polaris, which has
guided sailors for centuries, the human body's gut
feelings and emotions can help guide a wayward soul back
to his or her "essential self." By Martha Beck

Self Matters: Creating Your Life from the Inside Out
Your
life has a root core that, once understood, unlocks a
powerful force to create your life the way it was meant
to be, the way you want and need it to be. Key questions
and an amazingly clear "map" are now at your
fingertips to begin your journey to "Live by
Design." These are questions that, with the help of
this book, you can answer and bring into action-oriented
focus:

The Highly Sensitive Person : How to Thrive When the
World Overwhelms You
Are you
an HSP? Are you easily overwhelmed by stimuli? Affected
by other people's moods? Easily startled? Do you need to
withdraw during busy times to a private, quiet place? Do
you get nervous or shaky if someone is observing you or
competing with you? HSP, shorthand for "highly
sensitive person," describes 15 to 20 percent of
the population. Being sensitive is a normal
trait--nothing defective about it. But you may not
realize that, because society rewards the outgoing
personality and treats shyness and sensitivity as
something to be overcome.

Who Moved My Cheese? An Amazing Way to Deal with Change
in Your Work and in Your Life
Change
can be a blessing or a curse, depending on your
perspective. The message of Who Moved My Cheese? is that
all can come to see it as a blessing, if they understand
the nature of cheese and the role it plays in their
lives. Who Moved My Cheese? is a parable that takes
place in a maze. Four beings live in that maze:

Four
Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom: A Toltec
Wisdom Book
|
In The Four Agreements, don Miguel Ruiz reveals the source of
self-limiting beliefs that rob us of joy and create needless
suffering. Based on ancient Toltec wisdom, the Four Agreements
offer a powerful code of conduct that can rapidly transform our
lives to a new experience of freedom, true happiness, and love.
The Four Agreements are: Be Impeccable With Your Word, Don't
Take Anything Personally, Don't Make Assumptions, Always Do Your
Best.

How
to Practice : The Way to a Meaningful Life
|
As a primer on living the good life, few books compete with How
to Practice, another profound offering from the exiled Tibetan
Buddhist leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Westerners may be
confused by the book's title, assuming that it focuses solely on
Buddhist meditation and prayer techniques. Though it does
address meditation and prayer, at its core this is a book that
demonstrates how day-to-day living can be a spiritual practice.
There are two ways to create happiness:
|
|
The
Art of Possibility: Transforming Professional and Personal Life
|
The
lure of this book's promise starts with the assumption in its
title. Possibility--that big, all-encompassing, wide-open-door
concept--is an art? Well, who doesn't want to be a skilled
artist, whether in the director's chair, the boardroom, on the
factory floor, or even just in dealing with life's everyday
situations? Becoming an artist, however, requires discipline,
and what the authors of The Art of Possibility offer is a set of
practices designed to "initiate a new approach to current
conditions, based on uncommon assumptions about the nature of
the world."

The
Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment (UNABRIDGED)
|
Ekhart Tolle's message is simple: living in the now is the
truest path to happiness and enlightenment. And while this
message may not seem stunningly original or fresh, Tolle's clear
writing, supportive voice, and enthusiasm make this an excellent
manual for anyone who's ever wondered what exactly "living
in the now" means. Foremost, Tolle is a world-class
teacher, able to explain complicated concepts in concrete
language. More importantly, within a chapter of reading this
book, readers are already holding the world in a different
container--more conscious of how thoughts and emotions get in
the way of their ability to live in genuine peace and happiness.
