Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if by hearing a mother's heartbeat we could accelerate our healing time to the exponential cell growth rate that occurs in the womb? A Mother's Heart Beat is the story of Chickee, a woman who develops a device that allows children's bodies to "listen" to a mother's heartbeat. With this, and by recruiting other women to become "linkers," she develops an organization, Mother's Heartbeat, through which she and other linkers help many sick children. As the story unfolds, Chickee and her fellow linkers discover that linking with children keeps them young. Due to her longevity for linking with so many young children, the story spans the long life of Chickee as she watches many of her family and friends die of old age or sickness, yet she continues on, aiming to keep her purpose strong in helping sick children. When some linking devices are stolen by drug users who can piggyback a high "two for the price of one," the discovery is made that linking with adults shortens one's life. Chickee's decision to stop her linking efforts completely is brought on by a disturbing and disheartening event that culminates in a drastic life change for Chickee. In the nursing home, she discovers that she can once again help others, by using the device to "transition" them from life into death. By doing so, she ages herself very quickly and feels empowered by choosing her own demise. Through it all she struggles to create meaning and make a difference in the lives of those around her.

Download or read book When The Drummers Were Women A Spiritual History of Rhythm written by Layne Redmond and published by Echo Point Books & Media, LLC. This book was released on 2021-08-05 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For millennia, the sacred drummers of pre-Christian Mediterranean and western Asia were women. In this inspiring book, Layne Redmond, herself a renowned drummer, tells their history. Artistic representations reveal that female frame drummers carried the spiritual traditions of many of the earliest recorded civilizations. During those ancient times, the drummer-priestesses held the keys to experience of the divine through rhythm. They were at the center of the goddess worship of matriarchal societies until the ascendance of patriarchal cultures and the loss of drumming as a spiritual technology. With wisdom and passion, Redmond chronicles our species’ deep connection to the drum, our rich heritage of inseparable spirituality and music, and the modern-day women reclaiming it. This book encourages readers—both women and men—to reestablish rhythmic links with themselves, nature, and other people through the power of drumming. Redmond illustrates her message with an extensive collection of images gathered during ten years of research and travel. Woven throughout the book are strands of ancient ritual and mythology, personal stories, and scientific evidence of the benefits of drumming. It is at once a history, a memoir, and a resounding call for spiritual and social renewal.
Download or read book The Mothers written by Jennifer Gilmore and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poignant, raw, and insightful, Jennifer Gilmore’s third novel is an unforgettable story of love, family, and motherhood. With a “voice [that is] at turns wise and barbed with sharp humor” (Vanity Fair), Gilmore lays bare the story of one couple’s ardent desire for a child and their emotional journey through adoption. Jesse and Ramon are a loving couple, but after years spent unsuccessfully trying to get pregnant, they turn to adoption, relieved to think that once they navigate the bureaucratic path to parent-hood they will have a happy ending. But nothing has prepared them for the labyrinthine process—for the many training sessions and approvals; for the constant advice from friends, strangers, and “experts”; for the birthmothers who contact them but don’t ultimately choose them; or even, most shockingly, for the women who call claiming they’ve chosen Jesse and Ramon but who turn out never to have been pregnant in the first place. Jennifer Gilmore’s eloquence about the human heart—its frailties and complexities—and her razor-sharp observations about race, class, culture, and changing family dynamics are spectacularly combined in this powerful novel. Suffused with passion and fury, The Mothers is a taut, gripping, and satisfying book that will stay with readers long after they turn the last page.
