Download or read book The Celtic Way of Seeing written by Frank MacEowen and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Celtic Way of Seeing posits a direct link between the eye and the heart, a link that connects seekers to forces, energies, and knowledge that exist beyond the corporeal world. This book explores this concept through retelling the traditional story “The Settling of the Manor of Tara,” which describes the spiritual divisions of Ireland and the four directions — north, south, east, and west. The orientations to the four directions and the center become the focal point of a series of simple meditations that guide readers to “see” the directions, making the Irish Spirit Wheel come alive in their daily lives.
Download or read book Medicine Wheel Model of Mental Health written by Tom Hengen and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada has always boasted about being a cultural mosaic; a place where people of many different cultures can live together in peace without giving up their familiar languages and ways of life. For the First Nations of this country, the experience was very different. Their culture was lost in the Federal residential school system to accommodate the so-called mosaic. In Western Canada in the late 1990's, a dedicated group of nationally sponsored counsellors worked with the author of this book to serve thousands of First Peoples, and provide them with the psychological support they needed. Participants came voluntarily, stumbling out of the darkness that surrounded them and their families. The fires of their grandparents teaching had gone out in memory and practice, and they were left struggling to find their voices in a Canada that was unrecognizable to them. This book presents many of the core beliefs of the original First Peoples as they have been rediscovered and reborn in this new world.

Download or read book The Prayer Wheel written by Patton Dodd and published by Convergent Books. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning religion journalists describe a recently rediscovered medieval prayer tool that provides fresh inspiration and daily prayers for contemporary Christians. All people of faith struggle at times to sustain a flourishing prayer life--a loss felt all the more keenly in times like ours of confusion, political turbulence, and global calamity. The Prayer Wheel introduces an ancient prayer practice that offers a timeless solution for the modern faithful. The Prayer Wheel is a modern interpretation of the Liesborn Prayer Wheel, a beautiful, almost wholly forgotten, scripture-based mode of prayer that was developed in a medieval times. The Liesborn Prayer Wheel resurfaced in 2015 in a small private gallery near New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. It faithfully and beautifully presents seven prayer paths for personal or group use. Each path invites contemplation on the "big ideas" of the Christian faith--the Lord's Prayer, the Beatitudes, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and key words from the life of Christ. In the tradition of lectio divina and walking a labyrinth, The Prayer Wheel simply and directly takes readers into a daily, wholly unique encounter with God. As the prayers in this book unfold, readers will find an appealing guide for contemplation, a way of seeing God in new ways, and an essential new tool for Christian formation.

There is no shame or blame in serving our own highest good first and in recognizing that the highest good functions best when it is in healthy and balanced relationship with the Creator. Spirit Talk speaks to us of the first gifts of life and breath bequeathed to us from the Creator. These gifts, life and breath, upon our beautiful Mother Earth and Father Sky-Sun, guide and inform the reader's life and breath through a twelve-month calendar cycle. Keen observation of the calendar and seasonal cycles guides the reader through the highest of creative intelligence cycles--those of the ancient, earth-based Medicine Wheel Teachings. These wisdom cycles inform, anchor, and empower core creative principles of connected love, balance, and harmony. A balanced and harmonious relationship with the Creator serves to put an end to painful perceptions of separation with the self and, most importantly, the Creator. The dedication of time and the making of seasonally focused spirit talks with the Medicine Wheel will inform and foster an environment of shared respect and connection with oneself and with all living things. We no longer sit alone but are alive and active in a living world. The old people say, "It's not whether you will do it, but whether you will remember to do it."

Download or read book Plant Spirit Healing written by Pam Montgomery and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2008-01-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hands-on approach to working with the healing powers of plant spirits • Explores the scientific basis underlying the practices of indigenous healers and shamans • Illuminates the matrix where plant intelligence and human intelligence join • Reveals that partnering with plants is an evolutionary imperative Indigenous healers and shamans have known since antiquity that plants possess a spirit essence that can communicate through light, sound, and vibration. Now scientific studies are verifying this understanding. Plant Spirit Healing reveals the power of plant spirits to join with human intelligence to bring about profound healing. These spirits take us beyond mere symptomatic treatment to aligning us with the vast web of nature. Plants are more than their chemical constituents. They are intelligent beings that have the capacity to raise consciousness to a level where true healing can take place. In this book, herbalist Pam Montgomery offers an understanding of the origins of disease and the therapeutic use of plant spirits to bring balance and healing. She offers a process engaging heart, soul, and spirit that she calls the triple spiral path. In our modern existence, we are increasingly challenged with broken hearts, souls in exile, and malnourished spirits. By working through the heart, we connect with the soul and gain access to spirit. She explains that the evolution of plants has always preceded their animal counterparts and that plant spirits offer a guide to our spiritual evolution--a stage of growth imperative not only for the healing of humans but also the healing of the earth.

Download or read book The Spirit that Soars written by Ruth Skeens and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, as in many countries, we're a culture that supports and values intellectual quotient (IQ) development in our educational systems. However, we neglect the emotional quotient (EQ) as it's not mainstream in our schools unless a person chooses to study the field of psychology. Emotions can play havoc in our personal and professional lives in times of change if we don't develop our emotional intelligence. Dr. W. Edwards Deming said, "It's not mandatory to change. Survival is not mandatory." With all that the world faces today, the pandemic, racial tensions, frequent hurricanes, and forest fires have challenged humanity in ways unprecedented. Our moral compasses don't always point true north due to this myriad of disruptions. Our emotions, especially fear and anger, can derail a person, or groups of people quickly. We're being challenged to navigate life in new ways, which requires us to move to higher levels of consciousness, or being awake and more aware of one's surroundings. The Spirit That Soars! contains a multitude of pathways that a person may choose to follow in "waking up" to life. This book is a compilation of true stories, experiences, and conversations. The tools and exercises have been tried and tested and found to be true to their intent; some are designed for personal use and others for groups of people. The big D of diversity is the basis of this work and relates to all cultures, ethnic backgrounds, gender, age, religious beliefs, economic levels, and education. It's time to awaken.
