Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Our biology is no longer destiny. Our genes respond to everything we do, according to the revolutionary new science of epigenetics. In other words, our inherited DNA doesn't rigidly determine our health and disease prospects as the previous generation of geneticists believed. Especially in the last ten years, scientists have confirmed that the vast majority of our genes are actually fluid and dynamic. An endless supply of new studies prove that our health is an expression of how we live our lives--that what we eat and think and how we handle daily stress, plus the toxicity of our immediate environment--creates an internal biochemistry that can actually turn genes on or off. Managing these biochemical effects on our genome is the new key to radiant wellness and healthy longevity.Now gaining broad credibility among scientists, the study of epigenetics is at the forefront of modern medicine. According to the author, the real upshot of the epigenetic revolution is that it opens the door to what futurists call personalized medicine. For the first time in a trade book, Dr. Pelletier explains in layperson's language the genetic biomarkers that will become the standard reference for measuring which specific lifestyle changes are required to optimize a given individual's health. In the very near future, each person's state-of-the-art genetic and epigenetic profile--matched with other precise indicators such as assays of the gut microbiome--will guide their daily health practices.This short but profound book by a world-renowned pioneer in integrative medicine introduces readers to this exciting new field, and reveals the steps that each of us can take today to change our genetic expression and thereby optimize our health for a lifetime.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. When facing a tough dilemma, the wise person tackles the whole problem. They don't just focus on one part and ignore the rest. That's a matter of common sense, but such holistic thinking rarely occurs in our most consequential organizations. Although women are catching up in the corridors of power, most people in charge today are highly specialized males whose perception is too often myopic. For example, while they may focus well on the immediate symptoms of a problem, they often miss deeper causes, wider effects, and longer-term consequences.Such people, some of whom are also women, are "left-brain dominant" thinkers who tend to miss the forest for the trees. Sadly, these left-brain dominants fail to use all the mental faculties available to them-in particular the holistic and intuitive perceptions provided by their right brain. And this is why our future is now in great peril. In this multiple award-winning book, James Olson carefully explores these issues and shows us how to minimize conflict by gaining creative control over our two modes of perception. He goes on to describe the left-brain bias in our civilization, revealing it to be the root cause for centuries of war, racism, sexism, exploitation, and hyper-polarization. Left-brain dominance also explains eons of misunderstanding between the sexes and our inability to understand LGBTQ variants-of whichthere are as many as 32 fluid variations, as Olson shows. While most of our technological and scientific progress is driven by left-brain thinking, the great advances to come, especially in ethics, politics, the arts, and religion, will require that we consciously harness both sides of our brain to greatly improve our thinking so we can more often reach agreement. Independent scholar Olson concludes by explaining how we can achieve greater internal coordination between these two "operatingsystems," thus showing us how and why thinking with our whole brains will lead us to peace, justice, prosperity, and to the ultimate healing of our relationships and our world.…

These contrasting perceptions of the world, in turn, become a direct cause of the crippling polarizations we see today in gender relations, politics, and public policy--leading to culture wars and even modern warfare. Noting that one side of the brain always tends to dominate the other, Olson offers novel methods to minimize this imbalance.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Transformational experiences are as unique as they are profound, yet each portrays universal truths of human nature. In The Unfolding Self: Varieties of Transformative Experience, Ralph Metzner, PhD, unveils common dynamics and archetypes of the transformative experience, offering seekers and those in the throes of personal or societal transformation a reliable guide. Drawing from multiple disciplines ranging across the world's cultures (beginning with his collaborations with Dr. Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert at Harvard University in the early 1960s), Dr. Metzner explores subtle concepts using a tapestry of myth, allegory, and historical context. The Unfolding Self promises to provide its reader with valuable tools to become wise, impartial judges in their process of transformation into becoming a more integrated and fulfilled person.

Readers who immerse themselves in these masterful descriptions can catalyze their own process of evolution. …

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Sparks of genuine revelation are contained in many religions and esoteric systems. Your Evolving Soul declares that we've been graced with a new revelation for our time: the little-known Urantia Book, which has quietly sold over one million copies in a dozen languages. According to the author of this comparative analysis, the disclosures about self, soul, and spirit in the Urantia Revelation stand alone in their coherence and richness of detail. Your Evolving Soul is the first book to fully explain this advanced teaching for the ordinary reader, offering clarity and inspiration for those on any path. Belitsos compares the Urantia Book's futuristic teachings about the threefold design of the human self-system to the models of selfhood proposed by many previous thinkers, ranging from from Plato and Saint Augustine to Carl Jung and Ken Wilber. He provides essential context for this discussion by illumining the relationship of the Urantia text to scientific psychology and to the world's religions, with special emphasis on Christianity and Buddhism. Your Evolving Soul also provides an introduction to the cosmology, theology, and philosophy of the Urantia teaching, and reveals its many affinities with contemporary integral theory and modern theology. Through his lucid interpretation of the Urantia Revelation, the author offers a model of the human self and soul to be tested, examined, and compared--not a finished truth to be accepted as doctrine. Readers of this book will discover a plausible hypothesis of how our evolving soul becomes an immortal vehicle of our true identity. They also learn how our soul-making decisions can lead to the development of a creative, loving, unified, and perfected personality, now and into the afterlife. …

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Nic Perugino always believed he was destined to become a real-life Santa Claus. The first time he donned a Santa suit and set out to deliver toys to needy children, he realizes that much more is needed than simply giving out a few gifts at Christmas. As a young man, he commits to becoming a modern-day Santa Claus who delivers food and medicine to the least fortunate. Nic begins to travel the world; he ministers to leper children in India, works with Mother Teresa, and delivers life-saving suppliesto Africa. Along the way he meets the love of his life, Sara, who shares his unique mission. To support his service to the world, Nic is graced by dazzling visitations. These include appearances by the spirit of Saint Nicholas, who is Nic's hero-the original Santa. Along the way, St. Nick and a special corps of angels intervene many times to help Nic grasp the ongoing global crisis of inequality and poverty. They teach him all about the evolution of the universe and the love of the Creator,and explain the true purpose of sharing that love. They explain to Nic why a sustainable world requires that everyone practice the spirit of sharing-which, after all, was originally pioneered by Saint Nicholas and is now symbolized by Santa Claus. Nic continues to pursue his ultimate goal of leading people everywhere to realize that we can transform the human condition through sharing our resources wisely. As Nic and Sara raise their family, they continue to spread the spirit of sharing, developing a global child relief agency. And yet, while it is true that Nic is the hero of Maximum Joy, he's also his own chief obstacle. Eventually Nic hits a wall as his family runs out of money. He doubts what suddenly seems like a crazy ambition to become Santa Claus, and begins to falter in his faith in the mission-until an unexpected supernatural gift turns it all around in a culmination that will thrill and inspire readers of every age.…
