Book of the Month
The Seven Spiritual Laws of Superheroes: Harnessing Our Power to Change the World
by Deepak Chopra with Gotham Chopra
Given the volatile state of the world, it is no coincidence that superheroes have captured our imagination like never before. Everywhere you look, superheroes have broken free from their comic book pages and become a dynamic aspect of the culture at large. Superheroes are imbued with magical powers that challenge the laws of space and time, offering us a vision of a world that can change. By exploring the boundaries of energy and awareness, allowing us to better understand ourselves and our potential, superheroes can help us save the planet in a very real way.
From Buddha's search for truth to Batman's struggle with his dark side, from Wolverine exposing his greatest fears to Hanuman's divine gifts of inspiration, New York Times bestselling author Deepak Chopra with his son Gotham, author and cofounder of Liquid Comics, decode the seven essential laws that govern the realm of superheroes both ancient and modern, cosmic and commercial, and explain their relevance, importance, and perhaps most critically, how to apply them to our daily lives. These seven new transformative laws will help us all uncover greater happiness, courage, balance, creativity, compassion, and purpose in our lives. Each law has the potential to awaken us to our own superpowers and together these laws offer the potential to change our lives and the world around us.

CD of the Month
Sacred Earth
By Dean Evenson
Let your soul delight in this journey of nature sounds and award-winning meditation music. Dean Evenson’s sensitive recordings of nature sounds honoring the sacredness of the earth are interwoven with his relaxing meditation music. Three decades ago, Dean began the blending of nature sounds with the relaxation music he was creating and pioneered a whole new genre of meditation and relaxation music. Today, with renewed concern about the environment, this rich collection of songs is a perfect soundscape to encourage a growing respect for the planet.
Dean Evenson’s Native American flute, silver flute and spacious keyboard atmospheres are joined in artistic collaboration with the soaring wordless vocals of Singh Kaur and the rich cello tones of Jonathan Kramer. The harmonic guitar Scott Huckabay, sonorous viola of Phil Heaven and Tibetan singing bowls and harp of Dudley Evenson add to the mix. The album closes with a sacred chant for Mother Earth by Native American elder Cha-das-ska-dum. Sacred Earth includes over a third new material with remixes of some of the other tracks and additional nature sounds added.
“At this moment in time, we can clearly see the crucial effect our lifestyles are having on this small sphere of luscious life we call home. This precious blue green planet contains all the known elements and relationships which make life possible. Let us focus together on manifesting a healthy home where for generations to come, all life can live in peace, balance and harmony.” - Dean Evenson

Spotlight on Services:
Iridology
 The eyes are truly the windows to the soul... and also to your body! Through an examination of the various patterns and structures within the eye (specifically the iris or the colored portion of your eye) we can derive a significant amount of information as to the inner workings of your body. Iridology can identify areas of stress, inflammation, congestion, circulation and general constitution. This can aid us in helping to identify, pinpoint or confirm the nature or cause of many physical imbalances or conditions. The knowledge obtained can be an excellent compliment to any treatment program that may already be in progress. A variety of potential complimentary treatment options is then given, through the application of dietary recommendations, medicinal herbs, vitamins, minerals, and or other nutritional supplements. Iridology is not meant to diagnose, rather it's strength lies in helping you to become more aware of your body & how it is functioning.

Do You Mind?
By Ma Ananda Sangavasini, Reiki Master & Intuitive Life Coach @ the Divine Mine
.jpg)
When we hear the word “mind” most of us immediately think of something solid that is somewhere in our brain. Actually, the mind is not solid as we think; it is not solid at all! We cannot get a “mind-ectomy” when we feel we would like to have a break from the incessant stream of thoughts that continuously fills our inner space. Mind is more like a verb, like walking, talking and thinking – Mind is an Action. Interestingly enough it is something we do, not something we have.
In many ancient Eastern teachings like Buddhism the mind is seen as the root cause of all suffering, whether it is emotionally, mentally and yes, even physically! To clarify this a little more let me use an incident that I can clearly remember from my adolescence. For the longest time I felt very miserable, extremely unhappy with whom I believed myself to be. No matter how hard I tried to be happy, there was always this underlying feeling of sadness and unworthiness for no apparent reason. I remember clearly that this feeling of unhappiness was so intense that time and again I wished I would just disappear into dust and be blown away by the wind. I literally felt that I was a heavy burden to the world.
This suffering got so intense that it caused me to explore my ‘inner world’ – I went inside as I had learned by then that nothing outside of me could bring me the peace I was looking for. Through years of meditation practice and especially by going to India and being around my teacher Paramahamsa Nithyananda I can now clearly see what happened earlier on in my life. It was the workings of the mind that had caused all the misery.
The ‘me’ that I was identified with was the ‘me’ that was fully identified with mind at that time. That was the heaviness that I felt as the mind simply is never at ease – it is always on the move. The “I” that is seeing this now is beyond the mind. The seeing now happens through the being that perceives reality as it is without judgement or condemnation. Just clearly seeing things the way they are with no attachment. And with this, the feelings of being a burden and wanting to disappear just vanished.
The mind is not bad – we need it to function in this world. As Einstein said: the mind is a great servant, but not a great leader. So we have to learn how to take our actions, the actions of the mind, with intelligence, with awareness. Then life becomes one joyful dance and a wonderful experience.
Mindfulness is the key. What is being mindful? Being completely present with whatever we are doing. Again and again bringing our attention and awareness back to what is happening in the ‘outer world’ and paying attention to the experiences in our ‘inner world’. This brings extraordinary intelligence in our life which will provide us with the solutions and answers we are looking for – effortlessly!
You can try this for yourself – if you don’t mind! And just see what happens. Have fun!

If you’ve been spending too much time around the home take some time away from it!
Capricorn
This is Capricorns month to play! What? Capricorn play? That just doesn’t sound natural for a hard working, responsible sign such as Capricorn?! Well that’s just what you need to do!!! Explore anything that gives you a sense of fun & playfulness. Play some sports, a board game, heck do some crossword puzzles…anything that takes you outside of your regularly scheduled routines will do! Express your creative side; loosen up that tie or switch those uncomfortable dress shoes for something looser or more comfortable. All work & no play makes for a dull Capricorn!
Aquarius
Revolutionize something about your work Aquarius. If there’s something that you’ve been aching to change about your job this could be a good time to start taking action. At the very least this is a time where you should be at least brainstorming, inventing or coming up with a plan to improve your work situation. This doesn’t have to just be about your job, it could also be about your day to day routines or daily habits. Make changes to any bad habits with the goal of improving your health, think of it as an investment for a better future!
Pisces
This is a great time to forge new relationships or create new connections with people that can help you advance your goals. Investigate or research what interests you, this will help clear any doubts that you have about the direction that you need to go. Balance your relationships with any other responsibilities that you may have, you’ll find that you can do both! Think of how you can share your gifts, skills, & talents with the world…what are your gifts skills & talents you may ask? Here’s a hint…it starts with your interests! Improve your diet & add some exercise to your daily routine…it will make you feel better!
