    Mark Vonnegut set out in search of Eden with his VW bug, his girlfriend, his dog, and his ideals, but genetic predisposition and a whole lot of **** going down made him crazy in a culture that told him mental illness is a myth and schizophrenia is a sane response to an insane society. Describing his experiences during the late '60s and early '70s, Eden Express reveals how Mark went from being a recent college grad who was in love and living communally on a farm-with a famous, doting father, a cherished dog, and a prized jalopy-to having nervous breakdowns and then, eventually, emerging from them to write this book and to find the meaningful life that had-for a while-seemed out of reach. But the real story here is that, throughout his harrowing experience, Mark's sense of humor let him see the humanity in what he was going through and that his gift for language let him describe it in such a way that others could begin to imagine its utter ordinariness as well as the madness that we all share.

    This book contains 4 different titles. 
    Book 1: The power of our subconscious minds is strong. Many people don’t know what to do with those mysterious forces, so in this guide, you can explore more what they mean and where they come from. Moreover, these things are connected to emotional intelligence, a discipline and quality that has been highlighted more often since recently. 
    Book 2: What is creativity? And what makes someone creative? 
    Dive deeper into the realms of our most innate motivations behind the things we do, the way we combine the elements of our imagination, and the remarkable things we can accomplish simply by having a set course to success. 
    When we follow our dreams, we can do more, we can feel more, and we can be more. 
    Book 3: Did you know that Feng Shui can help you attract more wealth? 
    The invisible powers of organization and energies are hidden in the most profound realms of the universe, and they work! 
    But hold on, a skeptic might say, “How do I even know whether it is working or not?” 
    Well, that’s where this book comes in. In this guide, we will lay out the signs of the law of attraction, and the reasons why, for some people, it doesn’t work as well as it should. 
    Book 4: How can you be happier? What does science say about it? 
    These and many other questions will be answered. There is a literal Q&A in this book about the law of attraction, joy, and other topics related to it. 
    Another topic in this book, is vibrations. As some of us know (maybe you do, too), the law of attraction is based on vibrations. Those vibrations are sent out and attract the things we want because of our thoughts and behavior.
