Download or read book The Gift of Awakening written by Raphael Zernoff and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-08-31 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book gives the reader an opportunity to discover that everything in life can be seen as a positive synchronicity of events. It is a perception that recognises one's life as a harmonious flow, which always leads to a greater degree of self-understanding. The experience of becoming more self-aware is often referred to as "awakening". This is why the book is entitled: The Gift of Awakening. When we allow ourselves to work on self-awareness we embrace the greatest of all gifts, which is knowledge and understanding. These two are necessary to practice self-love. Only through self-love we can truly appreciate others and everything around us. The world is never being changed through the idea of changing others. The lasting change always begins with our-selves.
Download or read book Lighten Up written by Raphael Zernoff and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-09-12 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the reader can find a holistic and comprehensive explanation of how the structure and the mechanics of existence work. It gives many contemporary examples of how often we resist recognising its simplicity. We frequently prevent ourselves from being happy, and successful. This book suggests how you can allow your life to unfold naturally, as it is intended. When I use the term being 'successful', I do not refer to the idea of having a "good" job, a partner, and fitting well into our societies. My definition of being successful is: - 'Allowing myself to be, at any moment of my life, as much of me so I can, while being aware of my holistic self. Being more of who I truly Am. Following my passion and excitement, only because I enjoy it. Knowing that I AM always on the right path, which connects me to my core being, which is unconditional love. At the same time knowing that my choice reflects my preference. Other people's preferences do not need to be devalued as any less.

Download or read book Being the Change written by Peter Kalmus and published by New Society Publishers. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A plethora of insights about nature and ourselves, revealed by one man’s journey as he comes to terms with human exploitation of our planet.” —Dr. James Hansen, climate scientist and former director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies Life on one-tenth the fossil fuels turns out to be awesome. We all want to be happy. Yet as we consume ever more in a frantic bid for happiness, global warming worsens. Alarmed by drastic changes now occurring in the Earth’s climate systems, Peter Kalmus, a climate scientist and suburban father of two, embarked on a journey to change his life and the world. He began by bicycling, growing food, meditating, and making other simple, fulfilling changes. Ultimately, he slashed his climate impact to under a tenth of the US average and became happier in the process. Being the Change explores the connections between our individual daily actions and our collective predicament. It merges science, spirituality, and practical action to develop a satisfying and appropriate response to global warming. Part one exposes our interconnected predicament: overpopulation, global warming, industrial agriculture, growth-addicted economics, a sold-out political system, and a mindset of separation from nature. It also includes a readable but authoritative overview of climate science. Part two offers a response at once obvious and unprecedented: mindfully opting out of this broken system and aligning our daily lives with the biosphere. The core message is deeply optimistic: living without fossil fuels is not only possible, it can be better. “In this timely and provocative book, Peter Kalmus points out that changing the world has to start with changing our own lives. It’s a crucial message that needs to be heard.” —John Michael Greer, author of After Progress and The Retro Future

Rockawayis the riveting, joyful story of one woman's reinvention--beginning with Cardwell taking the A Train to Rockaway, a neglected spit of land dangling off New York City into the Atlantic Ocean. She finds a teacher, buys a tiny bungalow, and throws her not-overly-athletic self headlong into learning the inner workings and rhythms of waves and the muscle development and coordination needed to ride them. As Cardwell begins to find her balance in the water and out, superstorm Sandy hits, sending her into the maelstrom in search of safer ground. In the aftermath, the community comes together and rebuilds, rekindling its bacchanalian spirit as a historic surfing community, one with its own quirky codes and surf culture. And Cardwell's surfing takes off as she finds a true home among her fellow passionate longboarders at the Rockaway Beach Surf Club, living out "the most joyful path through life." Rockawayis a stirring story of inner salvation sought through a challenging physical pursuit--and of learning to accept the idea of a complete reset, no matter when in life it comes.
