Bringing the light of understanding to the path of everyday life

Media Reviews and Recommendations

Books

Timeless Body, Ageless Mind - By Deepak Chopra M.D.
I enjoy this book even though it is an older work of Dr. Chopra's.
Because he incorporates the field of medicine into the workings of the mind,
this book goes a long way in helping to reinforce the control we
have over our physical body.

The Hidden Messages In Water - By Masaru Emoto and David A. Thayne
It is said a picture is worth a thousand words.  The pictures of water crystals
in this book certainly help in understanding how words and thoughts directly
influence the behavior of physical matter.

The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire - By Deepak Chopra M.D.

The Power of Intention - By Wayne W. Dyer
This book goes a long way in showing the link between what we think
and our external circumstances.  Dr. Dyer succeeded in constructing a user-friendly
handbook for achieving your goals.

The Elegant Universe - By Brian Greene
Briane Greene does an excellent job presenting scientific information
that encourages us to explore the furthest reaches of our minds.
Even though it is science, I don't feel it's too far above anyone's understanding.

The Book of Secrets - By Deepak Chopra M.D.

The Tao of Physics - By Fritjof Capra
The writings of Frijof Capra include much about physics.  I definitely
enjoy his linking of science and spirituality, but some of the science can get
a little heavy if you aren't familiar with physics at all.

How to Know God - By Deepak Chopra M.D.

The Power of Now - Eckhart Tolle
This is a wonderful book on learning to live in the moment.  If you find
Eckhart Tolle's book helpful, you may want to continue
with his book "Practicing the Power of Now"

Belonging to the Universe - By Fritjof Capra

Escaping the Prison of Intellect - By Deepak Chopra M.D.

Videos

The Elegant Universe - PBS (Based on the book by Brian Greene)
Absolutely one of my favorites!  The graphics and animations alone will keep even the
most antsy of individuals in their seat.  Science presented in a very light-hearted manner.
It was originally a three part series on PBS so the video is quite long - almost 3 hrs.

What the Bleep Do We Know? - Movie/documentary starring Marlee Maitlin
This is by far the BEST video for newbies to watch!  Anyone just venturing
into the realm of things metaphysical or mind/body/spirit related
should watch this video.  Again, cute computer animations.

Mind Body and Soul - PBS - Deepak Chopra M.D.
Even though Dr. Chopra has newer videos dealing with the same topics
I prefer this old standard.  I like the casual format it's presented in and I feel
it's very easy to understand, the viewer doesn't get lost in some of the
extraneous paraphernalia included in his later videos.

The Power of Intention - PBS - Wayne Dyer
This video brings to life the concepts introduced in his book of
the same name.  I find watching videos to reinforce written concepts
extremely helpful, sometimes using the extra senses (sight and sound)
creates a greater impact of understanding.
 

Crash - Movie starring Sandra Bullock, Matt Dillon and Brendan Fraser
This movie does an exceptional job showing the interconnectedness
of all peoples.  It also shows the true action of karma and the
continuing cycle of new opportunities.
 

Neale Donald Walsch on Relationships - open lecture format
Neale Donald Walsch uses the positive reinforcement of learning to love
and accept yourself in the application of creating successful relationships.

Neale Donald Walsch on Abundance - open lecture format
Using the positive power of creation this video provides a much needed
service for those who believe the universe is limited in its resources.
