“The Game of Life and how to play it” by Florence Scovel Shinn. 

I first read this book in 1986 and have read it about ten times since then. The Game of Life and how to play it is full of stories regarding Universal Law.  How we apply them in our everyday life is the key to finding peace and manifesting our goals. 

This book encompasses numerous success stories of people who were able to manifest their dreams just by being aware of certain principles. Is it as easy as it sounds?  Frankly, yes! This is a must read for anyone who is building self-awareness and learning to become successful, and heal the mind, body and soul….

"Illisions"by Richard Bach
 
There are so many books that I hold dear to my heart.  Illusions is no exception.  As a small child I remember my father carrying this book in his lunch box, reading it over and over again.  We would buy him a new copy ever so often, as the pages were literally coming loose from the binding.  This book is written as fiction but as we stand on the brink of dissolving the third dimensional consciousness the possibility of it becoming closer to non-fiction is more realistic.  At least in my consciousness.  Richard Bach brilliantly writes, "The Master believed that he had power to help himself and all mankind, and as he believed, so it was for him. So that others saw his power and came to him to be healed of their troubles and their many diseases."  What is the old adage?  "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth."  This book is a must read!

"Many Lives, Many Masters" by Brian Weiss
 
This is another one of my absolute favorite books of all time.  I actually had the opportunity to sit at a VIP round-table with Dr. Weiss in June of 2000 at the Emerald Hotel, San Diego, CA. I humbly commended him for his bold action to step out on a limb in writing this masterpiece.  He put in place an unequivocal foundation for people to accept the possibility of reincarnation. He is the John Edwards or James Van Prague of his era.  Thank you Dr. Weiss for giving me true validation when trying to understand this realm of our universe.  You, and you alone, help confirm everything I have ever come to believe as I walk my path on this planet. You are one of the most respected experts in your field. One who had the courage to tell it like it is. 

"Saved by the Light" by Dannion Brinkley

Saved by the Light is an extraordinary book.  It is a true story about a man by the name of Dannion Brinkley who on September 17, 1975 was electrocuted by a bolt of lightening. While in heaven he received 117 revelations from angelic instructors.  His book is a story of surviving the impossible and finding a path he must take. Sometimes the universe is willing to use extreme measures in order for us to get on purpose. Dannion’s second near-death experience reunited him with his angelic instructors revealing new psychic abilities. He has dedicated his life to telling his story and assisting the sick and dying, to die in peace. On February 16, 2003, I actually had to opportunity to meet Dannion in Los Angeles, CA. His presence on this planet is of such light.  His story has touched me deeply as I have had a new death experience and am in the process of writing my story. He is a remarkable individual. 

"The Power of the Spoken Word" by Florence Scovel Shinn

The Power of the Spoken Word is another masterpiece to Florence Scovel Shinn's credit. Most people do not realize the power in their words. However, mastering the way one communicates is something I have studied for years on end. Why, because it is something I lacked for so many years. The Bible says, "For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned" Matthew 12:37. The Power of the Spoken Word will give you a better understanding of words, how they go out into the universe and return to us ten fold. Our words can help heal us or they can literally kill us. I know this because when doing case studies with clients that have contracted a terminal disease; I have found one of two critical points. Either they have repressed words that they wanted to communicate to someone who was causing them pain and therefore created disease in their own body. Or two, they always spoke or ran a recorder in their head about contracting a terrible disease. Also remember thoughts are things. Very often we have been able to turn around life threatening situations just by altering the way they thought; which ultimately changed the way they communicate. There are many other areas of your life this message can apply but I believe disease is an excellent example. Let go of fear in your thoughts, feelings and WORDS, and you will have the ability to change your life. Please read this book and see if the way you choose to communicate creates life changing results.

Carol Bowman was way ahead of her time in writing Children’s Past Lives; published in 1977 and still selling strong today. You will never find a more compelling book in this area, explaining in detail, some of the most interesting case studies by some of the worlds leading experts. If your child is exhibiting unusual behavior or speaking of events that you know have never occurred, I highly recommend you read this book. The simple solution is hypnosis. Children are easily hypnotized and in many cases, it is not even necessary. They most commonly slip into a trance with gentle prompting from a professional.  It is a proven fact that reliving past life traumas can heal issues almost over night, assisting people of all ages in over coming physical, mental and emotional problems. This book will not only give you answers to certain behavioral questions, but also provides simple techniques that might help you unravel unusual behaviors.  This book will also help you identify fact from fiction and assist you in asking the right questions, should you need to assist your child in a critical situation. Past life traumas are a very real phenomena.  You must handle the mastery children of today with kid gloves. They are experiencing and seeing things that might even surprise the most educated parent. The children of today need to be dealt with in a dignified, caring and gentle manner.  If your child is having more than the usual everyday problems, it very well could be due to a past life issue.  It is best to handle these issues early on in life, and one that can be dealt with in a very simplistic method, such as hypnosis.
