For Those in Transition:
A Light in the Darkness

by Fia Crandall / Intuitive Coach and Healer
Sometimes challenges come to help you to shake loose those things in your life that are no longer beneficial to you. Recognize that this is all a part of growth and it is a good thing, even if it doesn't feel like it at the time. If you are facing such a time, realize that nothing leaves your life unless it is time for it to. And nothing leaves your life unless you really are opening up to the possibility of something truly better and more rich and fulfilling in its place. And in these more difficult times, the darker times where confusion, uncertainty and unknown seem to be wherever you look, know that this is only transition time. And that transition only leads you closer to the life you long to live.

Pilates For Your Back
by Lara Polsky Gillease / Certified Pilates Teacher and Owner of Lara’s Integrative Movement in Asheville, NC
How do you keep your back fit? Strong yet supple? One of many wonderful ways to care for your back is to do Pilates. Designed to increase flexibility, strength, coordination, and posture, Pilates is a series of 500 to 5,000 different, succinct exercises and flowing movements. Pilates exercises encourage mindfulness, which leads to increased body awareness and greatly increases the productivity of your workout. Many exercises emphasize focusing on the spine, bringing greater awareness on how you use your back. Pilates also places a strong emphasis on strengthening the "core"- the abdomen as well as the back.

How Is My Life Like That Of The Lotus Blossom?
by Diane Goble, MSCC, CCHt / Spiritual Counselor, Master Transition Guide Trainer and Author
As you think about the question, see yourself sitting in the center of a lotus blossom, take in a deep breath and exhale slowly… imagine the tension flowing out of your body and the relaxation flowing in with each breath. As you feel more and more relaxed and your mind becomes more peaceful... begin to feel yourself becoming lighter... and lighter... and lighter still... until you feel like you are floating out of your body... drifting above your body... floating out of the room... above the building... up, up, up into the atmosphere.

 FEATURED BOOK
Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul
by Deepak Chopra

Fifteen years after his #1 New York Times bestseller, Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Deepak Chopra revisits "the forgotten miracle"–the body’s infinite capacity for change and renewal. You cannot take advantage of this miracle, Chopra says, unless you are willing to completely reinvent your body, transforming it from a material object to a dynamic, flowing process. "Your physical body is a fiction," Chopra contends. Every cell is made up of two invisible ingredients: awareness and energy.

Using Chopra’s ten steps to wholeness, you can harness those basic elements to change the distorted energy patterns that are the root cause of aging, infirmity, and disease.

Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul delivers ten breakthroughs–five for the body, five for the soul–that lead to self-transformation. In clear, accessible terms, Chopra shows us how to commit ourselves to deeper awareness, focus on relationships instead of consumption, embrace every day as a new world, and transcend the obstacles that afflict body and mind.
