Radiant Rebellion - Reclaim...

Karen Walrond

Join Karen Walrond, author of The Lightmaker's Manifesto, in this intriguing investigation into how we can reclaim aging, cultivate joy, and resist ageism. 
 
 
 
During her own year of transition—a milestone birthday, a wedding anniversary, the emptying of the nest—Walrond, in the buoyant and luminous style her readers have come to love, does a deep dive into dimensions of getting older, including health, beauty, spirituality, connection, adventure, and meaning and purpose. Through conversations with social workers and neurologists, activists and clergy, Walrond satisfies her curiosity about why the dominant culture treats aging as a time of dwindling capacity. She also embarks on a series of experiments that help her rebel against convention: letting her hair go naturally gray, going on a silent retreat, revamping her health practices, and plotting her next adventure. 
 
 
 
Internalized ageism is not our only option; we can write a different story of aging than the one we've been handed. With wisdom from luminaries who light our way, Walrond helps us radiantly rebel against the fads and assumptions that hold us back, redefine the adventure of getting older, and create a shining future of expanded potential. We might even raise a little hell while we're at it!

A Small Book of Comfort

Lyn Willmott

Having suffered the dark weight of depression for most of my life I decided to write a collection of reminder notes for myself in an effort to reduce the stress. Eventually this attempt at self-help became the collection of dialogues making up this book.
Through years of ruthless self-enquiry coupled with firsthand knowledge of the unwanted side effects occasionally caused by medicine, I began to actually ‘see’ the lie I was living. When I discovered this prison of separation, limitation and isolation, I pleaded with the universe to tell me how to break free. The flood of knowledge that followed enabled me to understand that I was allowing ‘belief’ to lay the groundwork for my everyday life and because of this my perceived reality was quite distorted. Of course, these heavily conditioned beliefs came from the society that nurtured me.
The relief, as I became enveloped in this truth, felt like a thousand-voice choir singing hallelujah. Here was the key to freedom! I had taken back control!
Nevertheless, when accepting this line of thinking it is imperative to understand that we humans are constantly creating our reality, so we need to be very clear about how the power of our conditioning shapes the way we perceive the world around us.
I am not claiming my illness has been cured for it would seem that once one’s nervous system is damaged there is always a slight chance of a relapse, but at least these days I rarely get pulled into that fearful darkness and when I do usually it only lasts a few minutes, whereas in the past sometimes my depression would haunt me for months before I was able to struggle back to the surface of life.
Having successfully used these methods it is my hope that others dealing with the ravages of depression, physical pain, emotional torment and/or chronic illness might also gain some benefit from these dialogues.

Wheels of Truth

Joseph Murphy

In order to manifest, there was an emanation from the Absolute into two streams of consciousness called Father and Mother. The Mother is often referred to as the great sea of substance or light in which the Father reflected Himself. The word “mare,” or “sea,” is sometimes called “the Virgin Mary.” The first step therefore in manifestation was the One Being becoming both masculine and feminine. Man has a conscious (male) and subconscious (female) mind—simply two phases of the one universal consciousness specialized or individualized. 
It would seem confusing to refer to God as Mind, except we clarify what we mean by Mind.
