Illness and Therapy - Spiritual-Scientific Aspects of Healing

Rudolf Steiner

Sinopse

'An external view of states of health and sickness must be augmented by what we can also know about the inner, spiritual reality within the human being.' – Rudolf Steiner. In a series of nine lectures to doctors, pharmacists and students, Rudolf Steiner presents a wealth of medical ideas with numerous therapeutic and diagnostic insights. As with his first series of lectures on medicine held a year previously (Introducing Anthroposophical Medicine), the range, depth and scope of Steiner's subject-matter is breathtaking. Speaking at the international centre of anthroposophy, the Goetheanum in Dornach, Switzerland, Rudolf Steiner begins by describing the interplay of physical and metaphysical aspects of the human being, presenting a paradigm in which the four bodies – physical, etheric, astral and ego or 'I' – interrelate in contrasting ways with the threefold human organism of head, thorax and metabolism, and with our capacities for thinking, feeling and will. These challenging but enlightening concepts unlock a wonderful diagnostic tool for the appraisal and understanding of patients. Steiner considers the medicinal actions of various substances – including silica, phosphorus, sulphur, arsenic, antimony and mercury. Among numerous other subjects, Rudolf Steiner discusses the methodology of medical examination; the treatment of developmental irregularities; the four types of ether; raw food diets; the I and assimilation of food; metal therapy and the actions of lead, magnesium, tin, iron, copper, gold, mercury and silver; the use of root and herbaceous parts and flowers in medicine; the rhythmic balancing process between the action of salutogenic and pathological forces; and the nature of death. This volume also features Rudolf Steiner's answers to questions, an introductory lecture to eurythmy therapy, a comprehensive introduction, notes and index, colour plates of Steiner's blackboard drawings, and facsimiles and translations of his notes for the lectures.

Disunity in Christ - Uncovering...

Christena Cleveland

Leadership Journal Book Award

Readers' Choice Awards Honorable Mention
Despite Jesus' prayer that all Christians "be one," divisions have been epidemic in the body of Christ from the beginning to the present. We cluster in theological groups, gender groups, age groups, ethnic groups, educational and economic groups. We criticize freely those who disagree with us, don't look like us, don't act like us and don't even like what we like.
Though we may think we know why this happens, Christena Cleveland says we probably don't. In this eye-opening book, learn the hidden reasons behind conflict and divisions. Learn:

- Why I think all my friends are unique but those in other groups are all the same
- Why little differences often become big sources of conflict
- Why categorizing others is often automatic and helpful but can also have sinister side effects
- Why we are so often victims of groupthink and how we can avoid it
- Why women think men are judging them more negatively than men actually are, and vice versa
- Why choices of language can actually affect unityWith a personal touch and the trained eye of a social psychologist, Cleveland brings to bear the latest studies and research on the unseen dynamics at work that tend to separate us from others. Learn why Christians who have a heart for unity have such a hard time actually uniting. The author provides real insight for ministry leaders who have attempted to build bridges across boundaries.
Here are the tools we need to understand how we can overcome the hidden forces that divide us.

A New Money Story - The Beliefs...

David Krueger MD

A NEW MONEY STORY: The Beliefs, Behaviors, and Brain Science to Rewire for Wealth 
Book Summary 
Neuroscientists estimate that over 90 percent of our operating systems—beliefs, behaviors, patterns—are 
unconscious. Since the surface story determines less than 10 percent of our decisions, how can we 
illuminate the shadow story responsible for over 90 percent of what we do each day? Once we 
systematically understand our relationship with money, our individual meanings and symbolism, can we 
overcome the mind and brain’s resistance to change? 
A NEW MONEY STORY: The Beliefs, Behaviors, and Brain Science to Rewire for Wealth will help you 
recognize, own, and assess each component of your money story. You can then decide what to change, 
map changes, author new storylines, and even program the changes to transform core identity to make it 
complete and lasting. This systematic stepwise process to inform and strategically catalyze behavior 
change will rewrite mind software and revise brain hardware of money stories as they are interwoven with 
life, wellness, relationship, and career stories. These behavior, mind, and brain changes offer long-term 
successful strategies, and even can crystallize a vision of your future self to significantly affect positive 
money decisions.

Jihad - What Everyone Needs to Know

Asma Afsaruddin

The word "jihad" is everywhere in the global media. It generally appears in the context of violence waged against the West by militants in or from Muslim-majority societies. This usage overwhelmingly colors popular discourse about Islam and Muslims and it has resulted in highly simplistic, distorted, and ahistorical understandings of the concept of jihad. For most Muslims, jihad refers to the continuous human struggle to promote and implement what is morally good and noble in all walks of life, as well as to resist and prevent what is morally wrong and unjust. This book addresses the great need for a discussion of jihad that explores its various dimensions without fear-mongering or sensationalism. Here it is examined from multiple perspectives: scriptural, theological, moral and ethical, legal and socio-political. Asma Afsaruddin looks at the key questions about jihad and provides concise yet thorough answers. Jihad: What Everyone Needs to Know® provides a historically-grounded, scholarly yet accessible treatment of the meanings of jihad from the formative period of Islam until the contemporary period.
