The Universe Knows is a short and everso- sweet inspirational and affirmational guide to living the life of your dreams.

It is with great insight and motivation that he encourages the reader to move through these obstacles, letting go of old patterns of thinking and behaving that stand in the way of our growth and evolution. The result is an awesome manifestation of one’s higher Self, and an awakening to our truest, most basic potential: happiness.

I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW
by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer
Hay House, Inc.

Rather than a typical memoir, Wayne Dyer has gathered together quantum-moment recollections. In this revealing and engaging book, Wayne shares dozens of events from his life, from the time he was a little boy in Detroit up to present day. Then he views the events from his current perspective, noting what lessons he ultimately learned, as well as how he has made the resulting wisdom available to millions via his lifelong dedication to service. In the process, you’ll be inspired to look back at your own life to see how everything you have experienced has led you to where you are right now. Wayne has discovered that there are no accidents. Although we may not be aware of whom or what is “moving the checkers,” life has a purpose, and each step of our journey has something to teach us. As he says, “I wasn’t aware of all of the future implications that these early experiences were to offer me. Now, from a position of being able to see much more clearly, I know that every single encounter, every challenge, and every situation are all spectacular threads in the tapestry that represents and defines my life, and I am deeply grateful for all of it.”

I Can See Clearly Now is an intimate look at an amazing teacher, but it also holds the key for seekers on a personal path of enlightenment. Wayne offers up his own life as an example of how we can all recognize the hand of the Divine steering our individual courses, helping us accomplish the mission we came here to fulfill.

 

 

CONSCIOUS LIVING, CONSCIOUS AGING by Ron Pevny

CONSCIOUS LIVING, CONSCIOUS AGING
by Ron Pevny

As the Boomer population is retiring with a dramatically increased life expectancy than any generation before them, aging is looking a whole lot different. Ron Pevny, Founder and Director of the Center for Conscious Eldering, presents readers with a new model for aging that is contemporary yet grounded in timehonored wisdom, focusing on aging’s potential for growth, passion, purpose, service, and spiritual exploration. Pevny encourages readers to stop viewing aging as the twilight of their lives and welcome in a new dawn by not just growing old, but by aging consciously – and as the subtitle suggests: embrace & savor your next chapter.

A great many seniors are no longer satisfied with their retirement years being defined by the personal and societal belief that our days of contribution and passionate engagement with life are over. Conscious Living gives readers a way to rekindle the passion of their younger days and find new purpose in life after retirement including to: identify unfulfilled goals and put plans into action; navigate grief and loss; identify and transform beliefs, attitudes, and habits that stand in the way of realizing goals and achieve a sense of inner wholeness.
