Are you very sensitive to your own feelings and the feelings of those around you? Do you get overwhelmed by external stimuli, such as crowds, loud sounds and hectic environments? Are you deeply affected by the beauty of art, literature, music and nature? Do you get stressed easily? Do you suffer from feelings of inadequacy and sadness? Do you always seek deep and meaningful relationships? If so, you may have a highly sensitive temperament (HST). HST's are a recently-recognized personality type and face many challenges in a world that is full of overwhelming stimuli. Yet HST's can learn to survive and be successful. The breakthrough techniques of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) are a powerful resource for HST's. They teach you how to immediately and routinely reduce the intensity coming at you, how to set personal guidelines that work for you. EFT for the Highly Sensitive Temperament is an invaluable survival guide for HST's, their loved ones and their families. It shows how to turn sensitivity into a gift for yourself and the world.

EFT – For the Highly Sensitive Temperament offers more than just an effortless healing technique. I felt as I was reading, that this book could offer a very simple and effective way to bring a natural, positive, effective and powerful shift for everyone on this planet. I firmly believe that if everyone learned this effortless technique, many cycles on all forms of abuse could end. Children would no longer be the victims. They would know how to heal the hurt and pain of an action before it wounded the heart and soul. I am not positive on how I may work this into my practice, however I will be working it into my daily life and for my family. Reading this book has truly opened my eyes, as I know how to address past issues to heal myself further. As my son seems to show signs of ‘High Sensitivity’, I am happy to have this tool to share with him as well. I definitely recommend this book to everyone – and anyone that would like make a positive shift in their life!

I have to say I did feel good as soon as I opened ‘Your Daily Walk with the Great Minds’ and began reading.  The book is broken out by months, and each day is set with a specific quote, a mediation that is in relation to that quote, there is a personal journaling question to help you to define your feelings and thoughts and last, an affirmation.  This would be a good start for someone that was once the way I used to be: Negative, depressed, and just normally ‘down’ all the time on everything. As someone that once was that way, I know what a person must invest to make that positive change for a sense of well-being. I have been there and I did it. Granted, I did it before I encountered Richard’s pocket book “Your Daily Walk with the Great Minds”, but that does not mean I am not still seeking to make sure I am the best mother, wife, therapist and person I can be for those that rely on me.

I have searched for explanations on “The Law of Attraction” after I was first introduced to in when I was learning how to become a Massage Therapist and Reflexologist. During one of our class times, my instructor brought in “The Secret” on DVD for all of us to watch. Not only was this phenomenon a hit at the time, but our instructor was intent on giving all of us in her class the means to know how to be able to be a true success in our new-found careers.
Aside from “in the now” positive affirmations, visualizations are also a large part of this process. What Aiman also suggests are small Exercises with visualizing your desire. The other fun idea were small meditations on your desire as the mind cannot distinguish from imaginary ideas and what may be real, right in front of you. In doing these little steps, you can easily put yourself into a positive place in life and attract anything you wish.

The Vibrational Universe

Science tells us that the atom is 99.99% space, a nucleus surrounded by an electron cloud; the electrons are spinning and rotating about the nucleus.
In order for there to be vibration, something must be moving, and there must be space for it to move in. The atom, therefore, can validly be considered vibrational in nature. If the atom is vibrational, then ultimately so is matter and energy. Reasoning in this way, we can regard the entire universe as being vibrational in nature, without contradicting the observations and conclusions of science. Light, for example, has been discovered to have a vibrational aspect. In its particle aspect it is known as a photon. The duality of light mirrors the duality of the physical universe itself.
When life, the universe and everything is considered from the vibrational standpoint, a powerful and practical new understanding of life is possible.
Combined with the idea of consciousness as a non-physical, creative principle, mysteries are resolved and living becomes much easier. A person gains more and more control over his or her life.

I highly recommend this book if you need to heal from any situation or if you want to change yourself from the negative ways of your life. It covers the Laws of Attraction, Free Will, Vibration and the Law of Allowing. There is so much involved in this book, and all of it is so thought provoking. It can easily be life changing if you are open to it and the information resonates with you.

Robin Marvel has issued the world with what I feel is a very powerful and positive idea. For myself, I was this type of girl and it would have been wonderful to have this resource at my fingertips. Currently, I am a Certified Massage Therapist, Reflexologist and I work often with what is explained in this book. I utilize essential oils in my daily life for myself and my family. I also try hard to lead a non-judgmental life and teach these values to my young son.
I highly feel this should become a required book for school although I cannot properly assign an age to this as it would be up how much the child understands. However, the information is easily presented so all ages can begin an alternative lifestyle and embrace their true potential and leave behind the pettiness that comes with peer groups.
My only major concern in this work, especially as this is clearly meant for the younger crowd, is that the oils are mentioned, but there is nothing issued in a form of warning on what oils to purchase. Many ‘health food store and massage warehouse’ oils are tainted with toxic fillers that can become harmful – used straight (neat) or in a blend as anything placed on the skin is absorbed in roughly twenty minutes.  Effects of these oils can be felt via the skin or aroma, so buyers beware.  Otherwise, I recommend fully as there are many wonderful ideas presented.

Robin Marvel has again issued the world with what I feel is a very powerful and positive idea. I enjoyed reading this and sharing the Native American lore stories with my young son. It was wonderful to see him understand the meaning in the story every time (and he is only five years old.)
I highly feel this should become a required book for school although I cannot properly assign an age to this as it would be up how much the child understands. However, the information is easily presented so all ages can begin an alternative lifestyle and embrace their true potential and leave behind the pettiness that comes with peer groups. With so many issues in the schools today regarding bullying and the chaos of life in general, it is worth it to slow down and honor you first.

My thoughts: (Full Review found at my Facebook Group Page)

When I first saw this book “The Alternative Medicine Cabinet’ and with what is listed as a summary, I was under the impression there would be ‘hundreds of ways’ or ideas to keep healthy. So for me, the title of this book is misleading with the ideas and content presented.

I do feel this would be the perfect book to have on hand or give as a gift to those unfamiliar with the holistic field of natural medicine. As I am a holistic practitioner as well, I know many view Massage or Reflexology as a simple luxury, especially in the current state of the economy. But I personally have benefited in so many ways when receiving my own work for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Migraines and the normal Premenstrual Symptoms alone to the point that all pain has ceased.

All in all, even though this was not a book I originally expected, the information is invaluable to anyone. It serves as a good reminder even to the current holistic professional to make sure they also take care of themselves, as well as those in their care.

Awakening the Eagle: A Guide to the Medicine Wheel

BookSurge Publishing

Mohawk tribal member and spiritual advisor Ralph P. Brown’s Awakening the Eagle: An Introduction to the Medicine Wheel transcends all definitions of fiction. The author—Mohawk name: Tawennihake—has created a unique combination of invention, tribal lore, wisdom, and spiritual guidance. While readers follow the enlightening journey of young Okwaho as he is guided by the elderly sage Lightning Eyes, we are taken on our own spiritual journey. Along the way, we learn about the Medicine Wheel, a vibrant entity that represents and reflects all that exists in the universe. Through the use of parables and observations steeped in Native American culture and tradition, the powers of the Medicine Wheel are further revealed. It allows us to recognize our potential and see how we relate to our world, whether in the abstract or the literal, the positive or the negative. The Medicine Wheel is our universe—it is also us—and through the author’s guidance, we learn insight and patience from it.

Full Review:

‘Awakening the Eagle: A Guide to the Medicine Wheel’ is a wonderfully illustrated book with eye and mind opening tales to allow change to the reader, if they are open and perceptive to it. As someone that tries to hold true to seeing the world in various ways, I found that I was reminded again to look at the signs in life to decipher my course and my actions. The illustrations are thought-provoking and explained in detail with references to daily life. The stories with Okwaho are just as enlightening and show how each direction of the Medicine Wheel is explained.

I read the foreword presented in this book, and I have to respectfully disagree. Without giving all of this away, I feel that one can indeed gain insight on how to help themselves, but again, if they are willing to open to this presentation of another way of thoughts, feelings and understanding. I feel this is a very good starting point for any person willing to make a positive change in their life.

My Thoughts: (Full Review found at my Facebook Group Page)

The True Nature of Tarot is just that, a personal account by the author with her own interpretations. I do feel Tarot is misunderstood and greatly misrepresented as ‘satanic’, often by those with ‘tunnel-vision’ feelings. For the novice that would like to attempt tarot readings for friends and family, this would be a good start. For a one hundred and seventy-eight page book, only forty-four of those pages offer the information the author wishes to impart on the reader.
However, I do not see anything that would make this book stand out from the others I have encountered and purchased.
