VI.  Embracing Beingness

Creative Visualization, Shatki Gawain, 1983.  This classic book shows you how to attract what you want through visualization, meditation and affirmation. Learn to use mental energy to transform and greatly enhance health, prosperity, relationships and fufillment desires. I've read this one, again and again.

How to Win Friends and Influence People,  Dale Carnegie, 1994.  This grandfather of all people-skills books was first published in 1937. It was an overnight hit, eventually selling 15 million copies. Just as useful today as it was when it was first published, because Dale Carnegie had an understanding of human nature that will never be outdated. Another classical favorite that'll blow your socks off.

The Dark Side of the Light Chasers: Reclaiming Your Power, Creativity, Brilliance, and Dreams,  Debbie Ford, 1999.  The best book I've ever read on understanding those parts of us that we hate, ignore, deny or despise, sometimes referred to as our "shadow".  Excellent exercises. Straightforward & easy to understand. An essential element for anyone on the path to "becoming whole" and creating a truly fulfilling life. Debbie conducts workshops at The Chopra Center in La Jolla.

Living in Process: Basic Truths for Living the Path of the Soul, Anne Wilson Schaef, 1998.  This book shines a light on "a way of being" as we journey through an ever-shifting life, full of ups and downs. If you're in a major transition, you'll find comfort and understanding here. The more comfortable we can be with the "process" of life, the more enjoyable it will be.

A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of a Course in Miracles,  Marianne Williamson, 1996.  The theme is based on releasing fear, and cultivating love in our lives - in all situations. You'll gain insight and understanding of our humanity with this clear and effective book. A modern day spiritual outlook offers lots of opportunity for personal transformation. Another book, which was highly influential to me.

Cultivating an Unshakable Character: How to Walk Your Talk All the Way to the Top, 
Jim Rohn, 1996. (call to order 800.323.5552).
If you're sincerely committed to making yourself into the person you want to be, you'll not only create these qualities, you'll strengthen them and recreate them in abundance. Enjoy higher levels of self-confidence, self-respect and cooperation from others. The most excellent audio series on building your "beingness". I wish everyone in America was required to listen to this set.
