Book Description
Want to find “your person,” improve your wellbeing, and be successful at your passions? The Magic of Viral Energy (MOVE) offers a fun and compelling narrative told through true short stories. Its message is for seekers—those intrepids who want to squeeze the lemons of life and discover their full potential. While meditating in 2007, Penelope Jean Hayes experienced the contagious nature of energy and a phenomenon she calls “osmotic-energy-balancing.” Over the next decade, she intuited a system of creation involving seven levels of energy ascending from dense and heavy upward to enlightenment. She shares that each of us has an energetic-presence that flows within one of these levels and that we only have access to the energies that reside there. Except that, we have the ability to move to higher strata, accessing the light energies that create more of what we truly want. MOVE reveals provocative insights into the universe; our relationships; the energetic antidote to unhappiness and the common cold; and our need to move from power-through-force to empowerment-through-creation. The Magic of Viral Energy is eye-opening and exciting and it makes day-to-day life easier and our big dreams possible. “The Magic of Viral Energy could not be timelier, in my opinion. MOVE helps us recognize and understand ourselves. Viral energy is food for our soul—that’s why it’s magical.” —Peter Egan, actor, Downton Abbey, Unforgotten, and Ever Decreasing Circles

Do You Believe in Magic?
Author: Paul A. Offit
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062223003
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
A physician offers an impassioned and meticulously researched exposé of the alternative medicine industry, separating the sense from the nonsense. A half century ago, acupuncture, homeopathy, naturopathy, Chinese herbs, Christian exorcisms, dietary supplements, chiropractic manipulations, and ayurvedic remedies were considered on the fringe of medicine. Now these practices—known variably as alternative, complementary, holistic, or integrative medicine—have become mainstream, used by half of all Americans today to treat a variety of conditions, from excess weight to cancer. But alternative medicine is an unregulated industry under no legal obligation to prove its claims or admit its risks, and many popular alternative therapies are ineffective, expensive, or even deadly. In Do You Believe in Magic?, health advocate Dr. Offit debunks the treatments that don’t work and tells us why, and takes on the media celebrities who promote alternative medicine. Using dramatic real-life stories, he separates the sense from the nonsense, explaining why any therapy—alternative or traditional—should be scrutinized. As Dr. Offit explains, some popular therapies are remarkably helpful due to the placebo response, but “there’s no such thing as alternative medicine. There’s only medicine that works and medicine that doesn’t.”

Work's Intimacy
Author: Melissa Gregg
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0745637469
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
This book provides a long-overdue account of online technology and its impact on the work and lifestyles of professional employees. It moves between the offices and homes of workers in the knew "knowledge" economy to provide intimate insight into the personal, family, and wider social tensions emerging in today’s rapidly changing work environment. Drawing on her extensive research, Gregg shows that new media technologies encourage and exacerbate an older tendency among salaried professionals to put work at the heart of daily concerns, often at the expense of other sources of intimacy and fulfillment. New media technologies from mobile phones to laptops and tablet computers, have been marketed as devices that give us the freedom to work where we want, when we want, but little attention has been paid to the consequences of this shift, which has seen work move out of the office and into cafés, trains, living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. This professional "presence bleed" leads to work concerns impinging on the personal lives of employees in new and unforseen ways. This groundbreaking book explores how aspiring and established professionals each try to cope with the unprecedented intimacy of technologically-mediated work, and how its seductions seem poised to triumph over the few remaining relationships that may stand in its way.

Do Unto Earth
Author: Carole Serene Borgens
Publisher: Waterside Productions
ISBN: 9781949001495

Languages : en
Pages : 462
Book Description
"A must-read book for everyone who cares about the future of humanity and our planet." --Dr. Ervin Laszlo, two-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee, bestselling author of Science and the Akashic Field, founder of the Club of Budapest and the Laszlo Institute "Do Unto Earth is full of empowering messages and mind-bending assertions that you won't find in science or history textbooks." --Mark Gober, author of An End to Upside Down Thinking, director of the Institute of Noetic Sciences and the School of Wholeness and Enlightenment Can you imagine receiving answers to your most thought-provoking questions about life on Earth spanning topics such as historical events to present-day environmental issues? That's what happened when author and viralenologist Penelope Jean Hayes communicated with the Divine Wisdom Source whom self-introduced as "Pax," channeled through intuitive Carole Serene Borgens. What ensued was the writing of Do Unto Earth, an urgent message to humanity about planetary healing. We are advised to look to the wisdom of the First Nations peoples for guidance on harmonious living with the natural world, resource management, and the development of our innate intuitive abilities. Further, Pax says that each person's contribution to collective consciousness becomes the global power necessary to affect change for unity, peace, and environmental repair. However, what is perhaps most surprising is the multitude of future technological advancements revealed by Pax, including strong hints at the fuel solution for interstellar travel at lightspeed, the replacement for all plastics and crude oil, and what's to come in communication devices. Exploring further, author Hayes asks about our historical mysteries such as the construction of the Great Pyramids, the movement of the stones at Stonehenge, the disappearance of Amelia Earhart, the cause of magnetic anomalies in the Bermuda Triangle, the truth about Roswell in 1947, the usefulness of Dark Matter in space, and many more longstanding human curiosities--all answered in this extraordinary conversation. The wisdom within these pages is uplifting and inspirational, and it provides tangible recommendations and solutions for the biggest concerns of our time. If you read only one book this decade, let it be this one!

The Magic Feather Effect
Author: Melanie Warner
Publisher: Scribner
ISBN: 1501121502
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The acclaimed author of Pandora’s Lunchbox and former New York Times reporter delivers an “entertaining and highly useful book that gives you the tools to understand how alternative medicine works, so you can confidently make up your own mind” (The Washington Post). We all know someone who has had a seemingly miraculous cure from an alternative form of medicine: a friend whose chronic back pain vanished after sessions with an acupuncturist or chiropractor; a relative with digestive issues who recovered with herbal remedies; a colleague whose autoimmune disorder went into sudden inexplicable remission thanks to an energy healer or healing retreat. The tales are far too common to be complete fabrications, yet too anecdotal and outside the medical mainstream to be taken seriously scientifically. How do we explain them and the growing popularity of alternative medicine more generally? In The Magic Feather Effect, author and journalist Melanie Warner takes us on a vivid, important journey through the world of alternative medicine. Visiting prestigious research clinics and ordinary people’s homes, she investigates the scientific underpinning for the purportedly magical results of these practices and reveals not only the medical power of beliefs and placebo effects, but also the range, limits, and uses of the surprising system of self-healing that resides inside us. Equal parts helpful, illuminating, and compelling, The Magic Feather Effect is a “well-written survey of alternative medicine…fair-minded, thorough, and focused on verifiable scientific research” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Warner’s enlightening, engaging deep dive into the world of alternative medicine and the surprising science that explains why it may work is an essential read.

The Magic of Food
Author: Michael T. Murray
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1451662998
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
From “a pioneer in alternative health” (Dr. Oz), doctor of natural medicine, and the co-author of the Encyclopedia of Healing Foods and The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine comes this accessible and comprehensive eating plan based on his extensive knowledge of food as medicine to promote optimum health. Food affects our body, mind, and health in many remarkable ways. And certain foods work together in ways that are almost magical. In this groundbreaking new eating plan, Michael Murray, ND, identifies foods that act together to produce a total effect or force that is greater than the sum of the individual foods—what is known as a synergetic effect. Research shows there’s a tremendous synergetic effect that the healing force of nature exerts through each food and each food component. As the foods work together, they improve your energy and your physical and mental health. Michael Murray’s years of research and clinical experience have led to a definitive understanding of how specific foods affect us. He presents his findings on phytochemicals and other nutrients and why they’re the new “vitamins,” discusses specific healing foods and how to combine them, and explains the principles to follow for eating the most synergetic foods every day. Here also are practical and prescriptive recipes and helpful guidelines for better and delicious eating. All this is in a usable and entertaining guide that you will turn to again and again as you develop your own personalized program for using food as medicine.
