ANCIENT WISDOM, MODERN WORLD (S0FTBACK) His Holiness the Dalai Lama
by: His Holiness The Dalai Lama
Only £9.99
What's so wonderful about the Dalai Lama's spirituality is that it completely transcends the boundaries of dogma and religious belief. He is not at all interested in persuading people to become Buddhist, but only in helping all of us - whatever our beliefs - to find greater happiness, inner peace and harmony. Neither is he interested in discussing theory. His efforts since childhood to live the spiritual life mean that what he says is based firmly on his own experience. Ancient Wisdom, Modern World is his most practical and empowering book to date. In it, he proposes a revolution; not a political, economic, or even religious revolution, but a spiritual revolution. This revolution starts with the individual but - because it acknowledges no boundaries of family, social group or nation - is capable of achieving change on a global scale.

21 RITUALS TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE by Theresa Cheung
£10.99
We think our future is shaped by big events - the decisions we make, the thoughts we have - but this book will show that it is our daily actions, the things we repeatedly do, that are the key. Repeat an action enough times and it will become a habit, but habits lack thought, consideration and presence. To ensure long-lasting, meaningful change our actions need to be filled with a sense of personal meaning, purpose and power - they need to be ritualized.
Creating personal ritual in our lives allows us to bring the presence of the sacred into the everyday. The rituals in this book have been created and designed as symbolic acts providing a framework for anyone to use to create positive change in their lives. The 7 morning rituals are designed to help you 'wake with determination'; the 7 afternoon rituals focus on 'living on purpose'; and the 7 evening rituals focus on 'retiring with satisfaction'.

ALPHABET OF THE HUMAN HEART Matthew Johnson
Back soon! - £10.79 £12.99
'A handbook for the happy, and a bible for the broken-hearted', The Alphabet of the Human Heart is an enchanting and enriching journey through the upside and the downside of what it means to be human - our hopes and our fears, our strength and our weakness, our highs and our lows. Quite literally 'a book of two halves', firstly there is an upside A-Z, full of the happy and hopeful aspects of our lives, such as A is for Adventure - the opposite of television, through G is for Gratitude, S is for Smile to Zen is the Place to Be. Flip the book over, and the other downside half examines the negative parts of our lives and how we can overcome them to lead more positive and fulfilling lives. With affirmations, humorous illustrations throughout, and a definite sense of glee, Matthew Johnstone and James Kerr's little book of wisdom is also the perfect gift to help cheer up a friend or loved one.

ANGER Thich Nhat Hanh
£14.99
In one instant of anger, lives can be ruined and years of spiritual work undone. Anger is one of the most powerful emotions, and one of the hardest to change. This unusually helpful book, however, offers a fresh perspective on taking care of this tempestuous feeling. Thich Nhat Hanh suggests we look after it as we would a crying baby: by picking it up, talking quietly to it, probing for what is making the baby cry. Laced with interesting stories and practical techniques, this book offers a wise and loving look at transforming such an explosive emotion into peace, and at bringing harmony and healing to all areas and relationships in our lives that have been affected by anger.`Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity.' MARTIN LUTHER KING
