Dancing with Time
We all get older as time goes by; aging is inevitable. On the journey we will face challenges, sorrow and loneliness, but we will also experience happiness, find love and live out the different joys of youth, adulthood and old ageIn Dancing with Time, Jos矇 Maria Rodr穩guez writes of the journey from youth to maturity. Taken together the stages of life can be understood as a dance with time. By listening to the music and following our feet, we can learn to live in harmony with others, deal with failure and talk to our past and future selves.Drawing on Ignatian spirituality, Oliazola offers an antidote to today's polarised, youth-obsessed culture. He shows us how to embrace our own unique life story, endure the challenges that confront us on the way, learn to dialogue with others and most of all never stop dancing with ourselves, the world, and God. Time is music. Life is the dance.Praise for Dancing with Loneliness: '[Olaizola's] style is eloquent and lyrical and is a joy to read. He uses images and metaphors very effectively.

Dipping Into Hope
It was the great poet Seamus Heaney who lamented the loss of the sense of the transcendent in our lives. Who we are, what we do, how we interact with others is not the product of a computer chip or an algorithm, it comes from deep within us. Many psychotherapists and others who delve into human motivation decry the loss of the sense of the sacred. They also see the impact of this on day-to-day living.This book encourages the reader to trust our thoughts and insights so we can see beyond the limits and distractions of today's world to the deep truth that God breathes deeply into every human heart. Forty personal reflections are accompanied by photos taken by the author, along with a quote that he has found moving or inspirational.Praise for previous titles: 'Alan Hilliard has perfected a format he has previously and very successfully used ...40 incisive and sometimes profound reflections.'

The Way Of The Heart
"All seekers are rebels - and true rebellion is to find your real nature." - VishrantEnlightened master Vishrant teaches that the true rebel is in rebellion to his or her mind, their belief systems, programming, ideologies, and the very identification of the ego and its resistance to life. True rebellion is an inward process, not a rebellion against the world.The True Rebellion satsang series offers a dynamic insight into the work undertaken by Vishrant's dedicated sannyasins within the master's private Mystery School in the hills of Perth, Western Australia.Vishrant is a nuts-and-bolts teacher of higher consciousness and enlightenment who shows seekers a pragmatic way towards creating a mind that will support truth and love.To do so, Vishrant guides his students towards awakening by helping them take apart their egos and examine the processes of the mind that create closure and contraction. In that, the ultimate rebellion is to break free of the dream and find themselves as truth, as reality.Topics considered within Freedom from the Mind: True Rebellion Vol.1include: The Power of Doubt Love and GratitudeCelebrating Life ServiceAccessing SuperconsciousnessWhy Saying Yes WorksVishrant's teachings are free of belief systems and religious ideologies. The invitation is for seekers to investigate the truth for themselves.
