  A practical and in-depth manual on integrating Thelemic spiritual principles into daily life by a prominent writer and teacher of the occult and the work of Aleister Crowley.   In The Way of the Will, David Shoemaker explores how the spiritual discipline of Thelema, founded by Aleister Crowley (1875–1947), can be utilized to enhance your psychological and spiritual growth. The book grew out of the author’s own teaching and experience—podcast episodes, classes, and of course, many years of personal practice and supervision of other initiates. It is a compendium of useful tools and perspectives designed to serve as one of many useful guides in the magician’s library.  Part one of the book, “Thelema and the Life Within,” reflects on the ways your inner experience can be enhanced by tools such as the Qabalistic Tree of Life, Qabalistic psychology, and the symbolic world of astrology.  In part two, “Thelemic Practice in Detail,” several important (but rarely discussed) libers in the Thelemic corpus are reviewed, with an eye toward strengthening the use of these powerful practices with no-nonsense advice. Tips are shared for constructing powerful, customized magical invocations and coping with the inevitable ordeals that can impact you along the path of your Great Work. Part two will also examine the deeper, personal magick accessible via attendance of the Gnostic Mass and the ways the symbolic frameworks of the original Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn can be (and have been) adapted to express and enhance Thelemic principles and practices.  Part three, “Thelema in the Wider World,” reviews the ways in which the Thelemic path can inform your health, your creativity, your sense of connectedness and meaning, and your experience of the nature of life itself. Various opportunities for community engagement and training in Thelemic magick and mysticism that exist in today’s world are explored, as well as the ways in which these have evolved since Crowley’s time.  David also offers a personal memoir of his own path toward awareness of True Will, including his experience of the “Knowledge and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel”—the term often used by Crowley to describe the pivotal spiritual awakening potentially available to every human being.

  What if your emotions are not the problem, but the medicine? 
    
  Emotions As Medicine is a powerful spiritual self-help audiobook for anyone tired of managing, suppressing, fixing, or spiritualizing their feelings. Instead of teaching you to control your anger, transcend your grief, or turn fear into positivity, this audiobook invites you into something deeper: full feeling. 
    
  Through seven sacred lessons, you’ll discover why emotional management often keeps pain alive, how spiritual bypassing hides behind “good vibes only,” and why your emotions do not need to be fixed before they can heal. 
    
  You’ll also learn how to create safe space for emotional release, build the capacity to feel without becoming overwhelmed, and recognize the difference between true expression and emotional avoidance.  
    
  This audiobook gently challenges the belief that control equals strength, showing instead that real resilience comes from allowing emotions to move fully through the body.  
    
  When you stop interrupting the process, something shifts, what once felt heavy begins to release, and what you feared feeling becomes the doorway to freedom.  
  This audiobook explores:The difference between managing emotions and truly feeling themWhy spiritual bypassing can block real healingHow anger, grief, fear, shame, and despair carry wisdomWhy emotional containment is not the same as controlHow full-bodied feeling helps emotions complete and releaseHow to live with the full spectrum of your emotional reality  
  This is not about becoming more positive. It is about becoming more honest. 
    
  If you have been taught that your emotions are too much, too dark, too negative, or too inconvenient, Emotions As Medicine offers a radical reframe: your feelings are not obstacles to healing. They are the healing

  “Finally someone is addressing the needs of the other 15% of majorly depressed patients !! Those who are the most in need of help beyond what benefits the larger (other 85%) population.” Lisa Bond, RN, LSW, LPC (Psychiatric nurse, Licensed Social Worker and Licensed Professional Counselor) 
  "Dr. Bansal's excellent research work at Overstreet Cardiovascular Research and Teaching Laboratory was innovative and well ahead of its time. His work reflected on our Academic Heritage at The Ohio State University." Prof. Charles F. Wooley, M.D. Division Of Cardiology The Ohio State University 
  “Dr. Bansal developed a fracture mechanics equation almost 50 years ago. His equation for the first time demonstrated the importance of the crack area as well as the shape to predict the strength of ceramics from fractured surface observations. His approach agrees with more complicated mathematical expressions for the prediction of strength. His equation makes analysis easier for most practitioners even today.” Prof. John J. Mecholsky, Ph.D., FACerS Material Sciences & Engineering Dept. Univ. Of Florida 
  "Dr. Bansal is extremely intelligent and highly educated in both engineering and medical fields. He is extremely conscientious, creative and persistent in seeking solutions to complex technical and medical problems." Winston H. Duckworth, M.Tech. Chief, Ceramic Division Battelle Columbus Laboratories 
  "I am so pleased that Dr. Bansal is following his true purpose of helping others that may not be reached. The knowledge and life experiences he shares in his book can help so many achieve true long term happiness". Jeannette Hightowerperry, B.A, Communication

  A Life on the Toilet - Tales of...

  Kat Ward is a survivor - and this book is her testimony. 
  Having overcome an abusive childhood - in which she was abused by family members, care staff and even celebrities - you would have thought that karma might have dealt her some kinder hands when it came to her adult life. Well, it didn't. 
  After spending the majority of it simply trying to recover from her childhood, she was eventually forced to confront that monster which apparently awaits 1 in 3 of us at some point in our lives: cancer. 
  After receiving a diagnosis of aggressive bowel cancer at 53, Kat's life was once again set on a trajectory for the worse. Suddenly, she found herself at the foot of a mountain - one that would require a great deal of support and determination merely to scale; let alone descend. 
  These are her memoirs of that very personal journey; from the initial diagnosis, through to the life-changing operations - and beyond. It's not a story for the feint-hearted; nor is it a medical journal. What it is, is an honest, no-holds-barred glimpse into the life of a cancer sufferer, and a book of support for all those in similar situations. It is a light at every stage of the tunnel…

  Wait It Gets Worse - Love Death...

  "Tender, funny, and deeply uplifting, Wait, It Gets Worse is about more than facing the unexpected; it's an everywoman's guide to living a life that matters."
  
  —Arianna Huffington
  With a voice that is wise, irreverent, and filled with sharp humor, Wait, It Gets Worse is a story about following all the rules only to learn the hard way that control is a lie and an illusion, and that love will save your life.
  Lydia Slaby was thirty-three years old and had everything she believed would make her happy: three fancy private school degrees; a successful husband who was in the inner circles of Barack Obama's presidential campaign; a high-paying job as an attorney—even an enviable yoga practice. But under the surface Lydia's life was in free-fall. Her new marriage was one argument after another, she had a job she never wanted, and for some reason she had begun to rapidly lose weight and turn a strange shade of yellowish-green. When she made a doctor's appointment to talk about the toll of extreme stress, she was instead admitted with a diagnosis of lymphoma.
  As a cancer survivor, Lydia tries to piece back together her marriage, her career, and her own worth. She begins to rewrite her value as a human being and build her own version of faith until, finally, she is moving forward instead of back. It's an imperfect rebirth, but "perfection" is something she must abandon if she is to at last find the perspective that will open a new, calm, healthy life.
