    How Does Intuition Work?

    Intuition is a phenomenon that offers people the ability to know something instinctively without adopting analytical thought, striking a balance between human mind's conscious and unconscious components, as well as between intuition and intent. Human disconcert is founded on centuries of social bias with the notion of focusing on intuition.  
    In the age of big data, it might seem like a subterfuge or inadequate process to rely on intuition what others consider spirit, instinct, a sixth sense, or a gut feeling. But according to a study of high-level executives, most business pioneers take advantage of their experiences and feelings when coping with challenges. And despite appearances, intuition is not an unconventional term specifically reserved for the realm of self-elating emotion. In reality, there is a neurological foundation for it. 
    When one understands intuition oriented science and how ideas can be affected, he can decide more readily when it is better to go with the gut feeling and when it is better to look at available data.

    The essential guide for people who have experienced alien contact and for those who love them. 
     
    It has been twenty years since the publication of How to Defend Yourself Against Alien Abduction by Ann Druffel. This new book by UFO researcher Kathleen Marden is the essential handbook for this generation. This is the fundamental reference and guide for those who have experienced contact with nonhuman intelligent (NHI) entities, families & friends of those “experiencers,” and anyone interested in alien abduction and contact and UFOs. 
     
    The ten chapters in this book are based on years of research and access to the files of MUFON and the Dr. Edgar Mitchel Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Encounters. Chapters include:Am I an abductee, a contactee, or an experiencer?How to investigate your contact experiencesWhen you discover that it isn’t ET: ghosts and paranormal phenomenaWhen you want it to stop: coping strategies and resistance techniques 
     
    Wide-ranging, informative, and helpful, this is a book that will find a place as a crucial resource for anyone fascinated by visitations from other worlds. 
     
    Praise for Extraterrestrial Contact 
     
    “Finally, there is a (much needed and long awaited) practical handbook for anyone looking for guidance on how to comprehend, evaluate, and digest alien abduction memories into the framework of life in the 21st century. . . . An eye-opening bridge for future generations, as it is predicted humanity will likely inhabit another planet by the end of the next century. If contact is inevitable, perhaps those who have been abducted will one day be honored as our evolutionary ambassadors.” —Jennifer W. Stein, Documentary Producer of Travis: The True Story of Travis Walton 
     
    “Once again, author and investigator Kathleen Marden has made a remarkable contribution to the world of serious UFO literature. This wealth of practical, well-documented information contained in [Extraterrestrial Contact] will be invaluable to experiencers and abductees as well as to educators, mental health professionals, and to serious students of ufology worldwide.” —Peter Robbins, long-time assistant to pioneer UFO abduction researcher Budd Hopkins, author, and investigative writer

    Nobel Peace Prize winner Jody Williams reflects that average people can unite to create a better world, in "When Ordinary People Achieve Extraordinary Things," her contribution to NPR's This I Believe series.  
    This I Believe is a National Public Radio program that features Americans, from the famous to the unknown, completing the thought that begins with the series title. The pieces that make up the program compel listeners to re-think not only what and how they have arrived at their own personal beliefs, but also the extent to which they share them with others. 
    Featuring a star-studded list of contributors that includes John McCain, Isabel Allende, and Colin Powell, as well as pieces from the original 1950's series including Helen Keller and Jackie Robinson, the This I Believe collection also contains essays by a Brooklyn lawyer, a woman who sells yellow pages advertising in Fort Worth, and a man who serves on the state of Rhode Island's parole board. The result is a stirring, funny and always provocative trip inside the minds and hearts of a diverse group of Americans whose beliefs, and the incredibly varied ways in which they choose to express them, reveal the American spirit at its best.

    The Freemasons have changed the history of the world. Their belief in liberty and equality for all people profoundly affected both the French Revolution and the founding of the United States, as evidenced in part by the symbols on our currency. In The Arcana of Freemasonry, first published in 1915, symbol expert and renowned author Albert Churchward traces and reveals the history of this very secret order. Churchward weaves a tale of Masonry's origins in ancient Egypt and its continuance through history--all told via Masonic symbols and symbolism.From Egyptian history and Mayan relief work through Greek mathematicians, philosophers, and metaphysicians, Churchward traces the development of the most basic symbols of Freemasonry. He also reveals the hidden symbolism found in the signs and tools of modern Freemasonry and helps readers find hidden meanings in all areas of life--rom art and architecture to geometry and poetry. With current novels and movies leaning heavily on Masonic mysteries as plot devices, readers will be especially interested in the more arcane symbols and the stories they tell.This book contains more than 100 illustrations of Masonic symbols, from earliest recorded to those used today.
