You probably remember how it went when you were a kid: If your family was typical, your mother said, “Don’t fight,” but your father said, “Don’t lose.” And that was the end of it. With all due respect to Mom and Dad, this advice is little help in a hypercomplex world that’s teetering on the edge of social and ecological collapse. Conflict is now inevitable, but rarely do we teach it in any intentional way. 

A sense of martial artistry is essential to our survival. Gripped by confusion, fear, and outrage, we feel the need to act, but we don’t even know the fundamentals: what to fight, who to fight, when to fight, how to fight, or why to fight. Awkward and impulsive, we’re ineffective and a threat to ourselves and others. This is a book about radical realism and adaptability. It’s about understanding the world, thinking clearly, navigating complexity, and exercising skill in the face of escalating stress and ambiguity. If you’re an aspiring activist with an interest in making a difference, this book, The Enemy is Never Wrong: Martial Art, Activism, and the Fight for a Functional Futureis for you.

Between 1997 and 2015, Christina Donnell, a classically trained clinical psychologist, experienced

ninety-two encounters with language, each a consciousness-expanding moment inspired by a message

from the invisible world. Encounters with Living Language (Winds of Change Books, March 2023)

chronicles these events she calls illuminations, which reveal pathways to experiencing our world guided

by deep insight. By sharing these illuminations, Donnell awakens readers to the intrinsic energy of

language, where we can experience its multi-dimensional transmissions connecting us to the oneness

that underlies all of life.

Encounters with Living Language provides an entrancing account of Donnell's discoveries and an

invitation for readers to explore living language and the dormant places within them ready to awaken. It

is a hymn of love during these dark times, promising that through the metamorphosis ignited by words,

a new world is quietly emerging, reconnecting human consciousness to the whole of life.

Create wealth and healing with the guidance of the 12 Archangels:

You are personally invited by the 12 Archangels to receive all that you desire from Source, especially the true happiness that often seems out of reach. Your Soul has the clear guidance and tools to help you move from lack to abundance and attract wealth and healing and the Archangels will show you how. Speaking through Belinda Womack, who has been a channel for the 12 Archangels for more than 30 years, the Angels explain the root issue behind our lack of abundance is the fear of not enough.

Sharing 63 healing visualizations, the Angels guide you to dissolve the deep subconscious layers of guilt and shame that keep you stuck in a fear-induced lack of wealth and restricted access to your creative genius. Reading the visualizations from the 12 Archangels, with intention, helps you tap in to the singing colors and undiluted love of the Central Sun mirrored in your chakras. The visualizations work energetically (even if you are not a visualizer) to facilitate miraculous change from the inside out.

The 12 Archangels share lessons on the relationship between money and Divine Law, how to cultivate your garden of intuition and creativity, and how to resolve financial debt with understanding and love. They offer nighttime practices that support your transformation into a vessel to receive the full blessings of Source. They also offer advanced practices on harnessing your innate power to transform suffering.

 

Helping you connect with the boundless care and “deep pockets” of your Soul to transform financial struggles and eliminate self-doubt, the 12 Archangels show that life keeps improving when you make room for the vast flow of creative genius and abundance coming from the Universe through the Divine Feminine.

One Earth is Brazilian-born New Age recording artist Kaliyani’s latest soulful,

inspiring single and music video release. With more than 4.5 million views,

Kaliyani’s YouTube channel debuts her timely new music video celebrating the

Earth, inspiring hope and embracing the beauty of human connection.

With nature as a backdrop, the One Earth video features beautiful Kaliyani as she

shares her message of humanity’s oneness with the Earth. Her enchanting vocals

transport listeners on an auric journey. Gorgeous visuals focus on the planet’s

beauty tied in with the power that is present in unity and the gift that is our

human kindredness and connection. Opening with captivating view of Earth from

space, One Earth reminds us that we are all part of the same planet race. Kaliyani

urges us to embrace our earthly home, as one family, and protect it together in

love and solidarity: “And here we are/Surrounding you/We hear your call/We come

to you.”

On the song’s theme of oneness, Kaliyani states, “When we finally let go of that

which no longer serves us...that’s true awakening. When we finally liberate

ourselves from the illusion of fear impinged on us through agendas that aimed to

create separation from ourselves and one another as a means to control, that’s

illumination. When we realize that that which we have so long sought and believed to exist only outside of ourselves and realize our inherent birthright to our own divinity, only then we stand a chance of experiencing Oneness”

The first book, A Thousand Dawns, explores the difference between hardening, which will help us get through life, and softening, which will let us experience life. The second book, The Gods Visit, explores one of the anchoring purposes of poetry, which is to help us settle more deeply

into what is. This anchoring into the life of being gives us the strength to go on. And the third book, The Tone in the Center of the Bell, explores how we are shaped by the Oneness of Life. For once we open our heart, the thousand feelings come at us non-stop, the endless waves of a

Mysterious Unity. How they wash over us and through us transforms us as we are worn into exquisite shapes by the friction of the world, grounded by our suffering and lifted by love and wonder. Let these poems be companions on your path to know yourself and the inner and outer nature of life more intimately.

We are all curious about the mystery of death. Whether facing our own, assisting a loved one in their last days, or grieving the loss of someone dear to us, we all have questions about dying and what happens to our soul after we depart physical form.

In this compassionate and straightforward guide to the spiritual process of dying and what happens after death, psychic medium Salicrow answers the most common questions asked by her clients over her decades of work as a spirit speaker. Seeking to normalize the spiritual aspects of end-of-life care, she explains how active dying exists outside of normal reality, in a state in which the dying person and their caregivers often experience a heightened state of consciousness. Describing how the spirit is separate from the body and continues to exist after death, she shares thought-provoking stories of spirit contact and synchronicities that occurred for those actively involved in the dying process. She reveals how these encounters are common and act as guideposts along the journey into death, helping to ease the transition. She offers simple techniques for helping loved ones who are stuck or struggling to cross over and shares practices designed to help honor our beloved dead and develop living relationships with our ancestral spirits.

Presenting an outline of what may be experienced during the dying process and beyond, Salicrow explores the time when a soul is actively dying or recently departed. She explains the multiple ways spirits reach out to communicate with us and provides a deep understanding of the signs, symbols, and sensations that spirits use to contact us as well as ways to strengthen that connection. She also explores challenging situations such as suicide, murder, and healing unresolved issues with the dead.

Crafted through years of spirit communication sessions, this guide details how the spirit world works while revealing the beauty, healing, and love that exist in death.

We live in a world where nothing lasts. Everything we love—the relationships, places, and things we most count on, even our own bodies—will change or be lost. But, as psychologist Matthew McKay shows, the certainty of change and loss can actually support rather than diminish love. For at the heart of pain and loss is love.

Collaborating with his late son, Jordan, McKay offers five ways to keep love alive in a world of impermanence. He explores how to see and know what we love, how to actively care for what we love, how to have compassion for the suffering of others, how to set the daily intention to act with love, and how to turn toward rather than away from the pain of impermanence. McKay shares practices and meditations to help love endure in the face of loss, disappointment, change, or any of the ways relationships and circumstances are altered by time. He examines what love is and is not, including how not to mistake yearning and neediness for love, sex for love, and attraction to beauty for love. He shows how to cultivate gratitude for every expression of love we encounter, learn to care for things we don’t like, and recognize the power of love after life—a love that reaches beyond death. He also provides concrete exercises for communicating with and channeling messages from loved ones who have crossed over.

Ultimately, McKay shows that, by running from pain, we run from love. By avoiding pain, we lose the pathway to connection. Yet, by recognizing love in the heart of pain and loss, by knowing that change and impermanence are inevitable, we can navigate life with a compass pointing to love as true north, learning to love more deeply and making what we love more cherished.
