Growing up in the 40s and 50s spiritual or hands-on healing wasn't discussed within a family, and not much was written about this practice. Because my father had been able to heal I suppose it wasn't alien to me. In fact it seemed quite normal. Alas dear Dad passed to spirit age 26, but I am sure he stayed on this earth long enough to see me on my spiritual journey. What a journey! Losing my Dad at the age of 2 years is painful enough, but to go through experience after experience, well sometimes you have to say to yourself, how many more times do I have to go through this. It is not until you become more enlightened that you begin to realise why all these situations happen. That doesn't make it any easier, but you do feel that at some point in your life 'things' must even themselves out. Of course I now know why I had to experience the pain and the negative; it's to get me where I am now. How could I possibly have empathy and understanding if I hadn't been there and done that? This is what has made me the person I am today, caring and compassionate. I have had the most incredible journey, especially the last 20 years. To be introduced to Archangels, Angels and Ascended Masters, so many 'Higher Beings' of Light. It has been wonderful and amazing. This is my amazing story of sadness and pain but leading to love, joy and a spiritual understanding that is beyond religion but is our natural essence. I sincerely hope this book will give a message of hope to all who are suffering at this present time. I wish you Love, Light and Joy.

What exactly is enlightenment and how can this state of awareness be achieved without struggle? These are the most important questions that members of the New-Age movement currently face and this is the book which answers them. As the mind-body-spirit consciousness that has emerged from the New-Age movement begins to permeate mainstream awareness, it sends out a plea: that this movement examines, and accepts, the limitations of its present practices. This book is a calling, written to stir the reader from slumber and to invite them ‘home’ in the fastest way possible. It teaches how healing and meditation practices will be made more spiritually expanding - and so more safe and effective - by adopting a ‘consciousness-first’ approach. ,

In this book we see how vertical reflexology can work powerfully on reflex points on the weight-bearing hands and nails.

Are statements of fact true or only more or less useful? This question is of vital importance, because it cuts to the core of the nature of truth; it leads to decisive choices in modern philosophy. Beneath the concept ́truth ́ serious problems defy and resist philosophic analysis; revealing and resolving them is the early focus of PHILOSOPHY THAT WORKS. The way things are, people mix up what they mean by ́truth ́ and get bound up in fallacies that condemn human knowledge to seeminly pointless relativism. But an adequate understanding of ́truth ́ transforms philosophy and individual undertanding, improves thinking itself, and strengthens education, organizations, and society. Showing how so much progress is possible is the business end of this book, the payoff of its thoughtful investigations into truth and knowledge. PHILOSOPHY THAT WORKS is an intellectual adventure, an impassioned story about navigating philosophy from its backwaters down a great river of advancing civilization. The philosopher, disillusioned with academic philosophies, begins an investigation into the many meanings of truth. He makes a lasting discovery that changes what philosophy itself can achieve and what it can mean. He faces daunting tasks but reconfigures philosophy; confusion concerning truth resolves into clear understanding. Who should join the adventure'. Not only philosophers. This is a book for everyone who likes to think. It has power, narrative conviction, and a soulful center that resonates through its pages. (From the Introduction) "...Albert Einstein once mentioned that humanity cannot solve its vexing problems at the same level of thought that produced the crisis. A higher level of thinking will require a philosophic transformation. That ́s what Philosophy That Works is all about. Despite postmodern skepticism, a simplistic true and false outlook on reality remains the commonplace of a civilization; this is the level that has produced the crisis. This book describes a basic change in the dominant paradigm of the age. It shows that a colossal mistake underlies the commonsense outlook, an error that has prevented consensus about what is real and, therefore, what life can mean: it penetrates the problem to its heart..."
