Download or read book The Secret Yoga of the Vikings written by Steven A. Key and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-13 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With their secretive poetic lore and even more mysterious pantheon of gods led by Odin the All-Father; Thor, the great Hammer-Striker; Loki, the Evil One, and Heimdal, the Cosmic Horn Blower, it is almost impossible not to love the Vikings. But there are even more fans of the multi-faceted yoga systems devised by the ancient Hindustani in India more than five thousand years ago. Steven A. Key makes the case that transcendental yoga has not only endured over the millennia, but that it has traveled in different forms of spiritual or religious expression in The Secret Yoga of the Vikings. Drawing on the writings of Joseph Campbell, the famous mythologist who hinted at a link between the cultures of the Eastern Hindus and the Northern Vikings, as well as other great thinkers, the author shows that yoga has influenced Buddhism, Christianity, and yes – even the tenth-century Vikings. Discover how a spiritual cult of anonymous Odin warriors who died long ago was likely responsible for the writing of the Poetic Edda itself as well as the role transcendental yoga played in the life of the Vikings.

It feels awkward watching my mom cry, but I'm angry. Why do I get in trouble over and over again? I want to be good. But once I'm angry it's like my brain gets hijacked. Want to know a secret? It does. Something called the amygdala (I like to call it 'Viking Brain') wants to protect me so it takes over and makes it hard to control my emotions. It can cause a FIASCO. At night I think of everything that could go wrong. My best friend is hanging out with someone else. Does she still like me? Mom says she is supposed to be home by 8. It's 8:30. Did she get in an accident? I haven't seen my cat. Is my cat okay? Did he die? All these thoughts make me worry. My stomach and head hurt. My Viking brain is at it again. It is over protecting me. The amygdala warns me of danger that might not ever happen. Being a Viking isn't bad. In fact, it is amazing. I am compassionate, adventurous, passionate and extra creative. I think out of the box. "Tame the Viking Brain" is the first book in an eight-part series to help Viking kids, teens and adults learn how to deal with anxiety and strong emotions.

Download or read book The Practical Guide To Using Ancient Runes For Modern Divination written by Dayanara Blue Star and published by Dayanara Blue Star. This book was released on 2015-02-15 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Runes are an ancient method of divination that still remain popular and useful today. Many people find them intriguing, because of their unique history and specific means of divination. Unlike fortune telling, runes are used to delve into a person's subconscious, and explore their true desires. They can be a wonderful aid in meditational practice, gaining self-awareness, or just getting some more perspective on various situations in your life. To people unfamiliar with divination tools, it may seem like some kind of spooky magic trick, witchcraft or even something demonic. None of those descriptions are accurate, and actually, runes encourage a person to explore their own mind and gain self-introspection. Initially part of an ancient Germanic alphabet, Runes have existed for hundreds of years. Versions of runes have been found in many different cultures all across the world, with stones created in a multitude of alphabets and designs. Simply put, runes are an old relic that has survived the test of time and is still proven useful today. The stones are a simple oracle which one can use to stimulate the thinking process. When the stones are cast, they aren't always entirely specific, meaning it is up to you to consider what they are telling you and how it relates to what you were asking. This often opens that pathway for critical thinking, solving problems and reducing stress.
