Growing up immersed in his mother’s French-Canadian family, Joseph enjoyed hearing the stories told by his grandparents and great aunts of a mysterious and magical place called Québec, otherwise known as “the place we came from.” After high school, Joseph’s adventurous nature led him to enlist in the U.S. Army and he served in the Army’s airborne forces as a paratrooper jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, much to the worry of his mother. Although he originally intended to stay in the Army for two years, he was appointed to the United States Military Academy at West Point, and after graduating in 1989, he decided to make the Army a career. After West Point, Joseph graduated from the Army’s Ranger Training School, a grueling and physically demanding combat leadership course. Over the next 18 years, Joseph served in the army in various positions of growing responsibilities culminating with a combat tour in Afghanistan as one of two Space Operations Officers with the US Army’s 10th Mountain Division.https://oldgrandmotherstree.com

Through intimate interviews, investigative research, and gripping storytelling, she offers a deeply personal and urgent account of a national crisis too often ignored. Passionate about advocacy and community service, Bley also volunteers with Big Brothers Big Sisters, The Wildcat Sanctuary, and Feed My Starving Children.

Bill’s worldview is open-minded, scientific, inclusive of the possibility that the universe is conscious, and that each of us experiences the consciousness of the universe as our own consciousness, and that reality at its core is consciousness, with matter and energy being phenomena projected within consciousness. In his nonfiction books, he provides experiments that the reader can do, which could lead them to the discovery that their hunches are meaningful, and that the universe might be trying to give clues to each of us.https://www.humaneffectivenessinstitute.org

Can't Stop Thinking: How to Let Go of Anxiety and Free Yourself from Obsessive Rumination
Are you stuck inside your own head? Learn how to stop obsessing and start really living with this breakthrough guide.
In today's world, it's easy to get stuck in an endless loop of negative thoughts. And if you're like many people, you've probably tried to think your way out of one of these thought cycles, throwing more thoughts on the pile until you're left with an out-of-control bonfire of anxiety, self-criticism, resentment, catastrophizing, and hopelessness. Attempting to stop your thoughts or replace them with positive ones is like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. Inevitably, you drown in a sea of unhappiness. Has it ever worked for you? If the answer is "no", it's probably time to find a real solution.
In Can't Stop Thinking, psychotherapist and spiritual counselor Nancy Colier offers the key to breaking free from the repetitive and obsessive thinking that is causing your stress, anxiety, worry, and unhappiness: Change your relationship with your thoughts. Using a powerful blend of mindfulness and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), you'll learn how to surrender your thinking mind, and end repetitive thinking, rumination, and self-criticism - freeing you up to discover a life of self-compassion, presence, peace, and joy.

Can a near-death experience change your perspective on life? Death, even for a moment, changes everything. In Life After Breath, Jacob Cooper's near-death experience as a child ripped an opening between him and the spirit world. He lived, but was forever changed. As he grew, darkness and light led him on a roller coaster ride of turmoil, loss, discovery, and renewal. He now shares this mystical journey with those brave enough to explore the “other side,” understand the beings there, and hear the wisdom gleaned. He faces the question of the hereafter, looks at life lessons, and examines what a connected awareness can mean to the human experience.

Most of us are overwhelmed by stuff that is not essential to our lives and is out of alignment with our true spiritual nature. Although our souls are inherently free, we also have an ego mind that orients us toward fear, scarcity, self-preservation, and holding on. With the ego in the driver’s seat of our lives, we accumulate clutter. Physical clutter is the most obvious, but we are also burdened with mental, emotional, energetic, and relationship clutter. All forms of clutter reflect the same thing: a soul not being true to itself.
Is it possible to be in alignment with your soul’s purpose and true spiritual nature by removing clutter?

It's Not All Chocolates & Roses This Valentine's Day For Those Who Are Experiencing Grief & Loss with Shaman Karen V. Johnson
As Valentine's Day arrives, many people are left to cope with their magnified feelings of grief & loss of a loved one, a beloved pet, a job that no longer exists, loss of income, health, a home, and even a loss of self.
Hay House author Karen V. Johnson knows this all too well. Her fast-paced career as a lifetime appointed Federal Judge came to an abrupt halt when she lost her 27 year-old son to a heroin overdose. Rather than grieve in a way that made people around her comfortable, she did the unexpected. She quit her job of 30 years, sold her house with all her belongings, and went on a 2½ year journey that took her all over the world, reluctantly finding a spiritual practice along the way.
Karen didn't think she could ever find her way out of despair, but she found a process that works and shares the journey of transformation with others so they can heal too. https://karenjohnson.net

With a clear, accessible, user-friendly approach, she leads writers through every step of deepening and elevating their own work, as well as how to approach the edit and develop their “editor brain,” and how to solicit and process feedback.

"How could something that happened so long ago affect me today?" I asked my therapist right after she told me I was suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). How could an assault at six years old be the defining factor in my adult existence?
And with those questions, my life's trajectory changed. I began to search for answers.
This is the story of that journey. A journey that took me deep into past traumas to face memories I'd tried to bury my whole life. A journey that revealed how my trauma was not mine alone, but was connected to my parents' and grandparents' traumas. A journey that showed me how this transgenerational trauma had controlled my thoughts, my choices, and my life. And how it now infected my children's lives as well.
This is a story of how I finally broke the cycle of transgenerational trauma and found healing - not only for me, but for my children.

A Mind At Home With Itself with Byron Katie
Byron Katie, founder of The Work, has one job: to teach people how to end their own suffering. As she guides people through the powerful process of inquiry she calls The Work, they find that their stressful beliefs—about life, other people, or themselves—radically shift and their lives are changed forever. Based on Byron Katie's direct experience of how suffering is created and ended, The Work is an astonishingly simple process, accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds, and requires nothing more than a pen, paper, and an open mind. Through this process, anyone can learn to trace unhappiness to its source and deal with it there. Katie (as everyone calls her) not only shows us that all the problems in the world originate in our thinking: she gives us the tool to open our minds and set ourselves free. http://thework.com/en

Love Is The Power with Robert Williams
Inspiring True Story Captures the Vivid Memories and Near-Death Experiences of Inventor and Former Beach Boys Musician.
Williams' extraordinary talent playing the saxophone eventually landed him his dream job of touring with The Beach Boys.

It was his search for the rekindling of the spirituality of his childhood and his love of music - the "carrier waves of pure heart love" that led him to discover TM. This discovery was crucial to the events that would happen next: nearly dying multiple times, clear vision and communication with his guru, revelations of sacred geometry, and travels through the dimensions.
With his book Love is the Power, Williams spreads an invaluable message - simple, yet essential. And with his Heart+ App, he ensures that we can move forward on a better path to be heart-driven humans. www.one08.net

Defy Your Limits: The Telekinesis Training Method with Sean McNamara
Early incidents of illness and surgery brought about a persistent fear and contemplation of death and of what happens afterward. in his twenties, McNamara became a Buddhist practitioner in order to use meditation as a way to investigate the nature of consciousness and reality. Realizing that many traditions eventually become rigid and limiting out of a need for self preservation, and at the cost of each individual's unique development, he left the path he had been following. He found Lucid Dreaming and the Out of Body Experience to be especially potent methods for his spiritual inquiry, and free of the dogmatic qualities found elsewhere. He eventually applied his knowledge of meditation toward telekinesis in order to illustrate the themes of interconnectedness and intention to his meditation students. He currently teaches meditation, Lucid Dreaming, the Out of Body Experience, and telekinesis in Denver, Colorado, with the purpose of showing others that spiritual growth is still possible as an independent, self-empowering, and revelatory path. http://www.mindpossible.com http://www.mindpossiblecourses.com

Whitney Way Thore stands five feet two inches tall and weighs well over three hundred pounds, and she is totally, completely, and truly . . . happy.

She holds nothing back, opening up about the depths of her depression as well as her resilience in the face of constant harassment and mistreatment.
Now Whitney is on top of the world and taking no BS (Body Shame, of course). And she’s sharing the steps she took to get there and the powerful message behind her successful No Body Shame campaign. She even reveals her favorite “F” word (it’s probably not what you think), the thrill of doing it with the lights on, and the story behind the “Fat Girl Dancing” video that started it all. www.NoBodyShame.com
