"The Silent Pulse" & "Nonviolent Communication."

A search for the perfect rhythm that exists within each of us and how getting in touch with that rhythm can transform our experience in daily life and in some way alter the world around us.

Frank found for us, "Non-Violent Communication," by Marshall B. Rosenberg:

A language of life composed of a flow between yourself and others based upon mutual giving from the heart.

Rick regales us with "The Alchemist," by Paulo Coelho:

A mystical story about a young boy who goes traveling in search of treasure. His adventures teach him that there is a more important treasure inside us that can only be found by listening to our hearts.

WHAT HE CARRIES IN HIS HEART"

I disagree! Peter says.

(What else is new?) It is not what you carry in your heart. You see in the world what you carry in your head. Your brain's Worldview colors your experience.

And yet it can be true, says Frank.

You carry wonderful things in your heart: love, gratitude, and more. Frank will show you the ways to discover the positive qualities you carry so you can let them manifest in the world.
