At no other time has it been more important to examine the way we care for ourselves and others. Our physical, mental, and spiritual health is being tested at a high level. At times, life feels beyond full and without goodness. By pausing long enough to explore aspects of our lives that we often take for granted, we can begin to see patterns steeped in tradition that support health at a cellular level. Tammera Karr and Kathleen Bell have taken that pause to show us how the foods we eat, the thoughts we think, and the sounds and colors that surround us affect our well-being. Based on clinical experience, research, personal reflection, and a passion for advancing healthcare perspectives, this book is a guide for nourishing mind, body, and spirit by integrating today's rapidly changing landscape with nature's wisdom.

Tiffany Porter You did it C.A. Dumont! You took Me on a Magical Journey. You made Me feel that It was Your Personal Journey. Patsy Neito I found Sophie's adventures in the spirit world very inspiring! I was always anxious to get back to the book when distracted by other responsibilities. Many of us have these other worldly experiences and write them off as "just a dream" or "a freaky thing that happened", because we find it impossible to accept as real. This book will open young people's minds to the truth that these kinds of experiences are not only possible, but they can happen to anybody who invites the spirit world into their lives. Sophie's story will open the door to many adventures and blessings to all who read it. Coleen Lumly

Since I made them up, I did not always get them right each time, and he would correct me. "Wait Grandma, " then he would correct me because he has memorized the stories from when I first told them!

"The text and the colorful illustrations contained in Cat Speak accentuate and celebrate the wonderful world of our beloved felines. Simulating language based on what author Rich Grimes believes cats might be thinking, we come to know and appreciate the minds and hearts of our furry friends. As one might expect, there are (9) stories in all. The cats' words are laced with humor, sarcasm, and at times, melancholy. Cat (and dog) lovers will undoubtedly smile and laugh for they will personally relate to the events and behaviors described. Background information and author commentary provide foundation and foreshadowing for the tales spun by both domesticated and feral cats. The author blends beautifully fact and fiction and augments the stories with several uniquely creative elements including vignettes, Simba's farewell, a cinema tribute, and cat testimonials."--Cover.

When do you know that something has been the right deed, but for the wrong reason? The novel Strings answers that question. It leads from police harassment of a working class San Francisco neighborhood to a distant, mysterious city beneath the Sahara desert. It connects the strings between many unique characters: a powerful San Francisco politician, an ex-cop-turned-reporter and his ex-partner (a police lieutenant and Master of Zahu, the most ancient of the martial arts), and Esse, a man who comes from his desert city where advanced experimentation has evolved a science and technology far beyond the West to supposedly create a plan for world peace. The reporter and detective are both disillusioned with day-to-day life, but their investigation of the harassment problem suddenly opens a direct line to Esse's city. His "right deed" for world peace may be for the wrong reason which might evolve in an attack against the West, city by city. They join with a brilliant renegade scientist and Esse's only beloved daughter in a race against time to unravel the strings of power. How they get there and what they must do brings the novel into the hands of a terrorist who sees peace as the end of the West.

What a revelation! Life is just a test. One we must try to pass to move up the spiritual ladder. Our real existence is in the spiritual realm, not the physical one we are used to right now. Who knew?

References to the spiritual world go back throughout history. So settle back and read this personal account of what happens after death...motivational and inspirational!

These stories about San Francisco in the 60's speak of that memorable time when the voices of hope and possibilities competed with the sinister drumbeat of the Vietnam War. The characters struggle, succeed, and sometimes fail, but in the end they courageously follow their choices. We see young men stoically face the inevitability of the draft as well as senior "pioneers" who endure daily lives of quiet resignation. Each story begins with a new opening; each story ends too soon. Take your time. The essence of the stories comes to us slowly. The sensual side of this charismatic city seduces with scents, sounds, flavors, and panoramic vistas. Step on to the iconic cable car that tenaciously follows the arterial network of its roadways. Remember, "it's all about the ride."
