The Recycled Man and Holy Matrimony | by Lgoo Book May 13, 2012 | $2.49 | 3686 words | Sample 15% |
| Author bio: I started writing about ten years ago and only recently decided to begin publishing a few works in both fiction, non-fiction. When I was growing up I was never a good liar and story telling was a strange bed fellow to me. But years later when I was learning to fly at the age of fifty three. I came out of my shell so to speak and stories just seemed to pop out of my head. At first I didn't write anything down but was toying with a story one day and my wife saw it and encouraged me to finish it. I've since published works of fiction and 3 technical manuals on Heating & Air conditioning. |

He is active as a Life Coach and Personal Effectiveness Coach, Therapist, Writer, and Independent Consultant – and has achieved advanced certification in Rational-Emotive Behaviour Therapy. Patrick has worked and travelled all over the globe, including spells living in New Zealand and the deserts of Arabia. Patrick currently lives in The Netherlands, is married, and has two teenage daughters. He is clearly an all-round upstanding person. 2. Alternative Biography Patrick frequently engages in self-defeating and ineffective behaviour, and is often challenged to find a really good reason for getting out of bed. Until recently, he had no idea what made him tick and was drifting aimlessly – allergic to anything that might upset this comfortable state of affairs. Since Patrick began to pay more attention to himself and his life, things have definitely changed a little for the better, but there is still plenty of headroom for improvement, and quite possibly some room for head improvement. Yes, dear reader, Patrick is just like you… fallible, flawed, and flapping around in the dark – looking for clues and remedies, trying to make a little sense of it all. However, you may learn something useful from his experiences and insights that will help you on your own journey through life. |

The Well Within -- Self-Hypnosis for Enhancing Self-Confidence | by Kristina Woodall May 07, 2012 | $6.99 | 42349 words | Sample 20% |
| Author bio: My base station is, and pretty much always has been, Colorado. Living in one of the most beautiful places on Earth, Boulder (nestled on the edge of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains), my focus is on building bridges between what we believe life is all about and the mystery destination just beyond the veil. I am, like you, a spirit trekker -- always seeking to discover, explore, question, analyze, and heal the rift between flesh and spirit; illusion and truth. There is more to life than paying the bills, losing fat, getting (or not losing) our current source of employment, being politically correct, and forever striving to meet the external expectations of others; there is the inner spiritual journey to discover who we truly are, why we’re actually here, and what we really need to know and learn in order to summit to the light. EDUCATION: I began my adventures in higher education at the age of seventeen. Winning a Resident Honor’s Scholarship (one of thirty people across the nation), I spent my Senior year of High School at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. A year later, I opted to transfer to Humboldt State University in northern California. (Planting myself in the midst of tall trees, healthy skies, and open spaces, Humboldt was just what the doctor ordered for one dreadfully homesick for my native Colorado.) Four years later, in June of 1985, I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a double major in Journalism and Political Science. First published at the age of 14, winning Third Prize in the Denver Post’s State-wide Christmas Essay Writing Contest, I long possessed a passion for putting word to paper. At 17, at 2 o’clock in the morning (after a night shift at Wendy’s) I sat down and wrote an essay for San Diego’s East County Essay Writing Contest, and took First Place. At the age of 21, with my Journalism degree in hand and a passion for writing in my heart, I hurried back to Denver and obtained employment as a writer/editor for Golden Bell Press. A few years later, I became a Technical Writer for the United States Government (Bureau of Reclamation). When my contract with the government expired in 1990, the lure of the snow-capped mountains to the west of Denver was unbearable, and I moved up to Dillon, Colorado (elev. 9,800 feet!) on faith alone. The cost of my seat-of-the-pants decision to trek to higher grounds was high. With employment scarce and writing opportunities non-existent, I rode out a storm of odd jobs and inspirational (spiritual) challenges. The reward for this choice, however, was also high. Sitting on a boulder next to a lost lake in the Eaglesnest Wilderness (overlooking my new mountain home), I realized that I could now fulfill my thirst for even higher education, as well as my desire to help others traverse the highs and lows of our mutual journey on this planet. In 1993, at the age of 30, I went back to school to obtain my Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from Regis University in Denver. Building my own psychotherapy practice in Dillon, I sound found that traditional therapy lacked the equipment and traveling tools necessary to reach the depths of truth that existed deep within mind and emotion, body and feeling. Tired of talking around and around in circles, I went back and trained at the Transpersonal Hypnotherapy Institute (THI) in Boulder, Colorado and became a Certified Transpersonal Clinical Hypnotherapist and a Certified Transpersonal Medical Hypnotherapist. (Transpersonal hypnotherapy is a natural extension of Transpersonal Psychology, the fourth wave of psychology which recognizes the spiritual potential of human beings.) My areas of expertise included transpersonal journeywork (emotional healing; working with the unconscious mind; mind/body therapeutic practices; and ego strengthening); Jungian complexes and archetypes (working with archetypes in a transpersonal context; developing inner resources; and archetypal guidework); retrieval work (hypnotic regression therapy; healing early childhood trauma; abreaction/reframing; working with introjected parent figures; and inner child work); shadow work (Jungian dreamwork and active imagination); sub-personality therapy; resistance and problem solving strategies; phobias, weight management, smoking cessation, pain/disease management, work therapy; pre- and post-op therapy; hypnodontics, allergies, and natural childbirth. In 2004, I moved to Boulder and became an Intuitive Life Coach (helping clients build a complete physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual tool chest that would enable them to weather the storms of the passage on this planet and climb to the heights of their wildest dreams). Becoming an Intuitive Life Coach, I found that I could reach out to people around the country who seek to become fully functioning, happy, healthy, adults able to meet challenges, endure the highs and lows with joy, and build the endurance necessary to reach the destination of their choice. In addition, pulling my passion for creative writing off the back-burner, I have now completed two novels: Dance for the Rain (about a young woman overcoming her fear of change and finding passion in the turmoil that is life) and Sight Seeing (the first in a series of paranormal suspense novels about a reluctant psychic/hypnotherapist who fights to protect the mountains behind her Colorado mountain town). Enjoying my journey and trusting my knowing, I now spend my time working with clients as their personal Intuitive Life Coach, working on my next novel (Ghost Time, which is about a woman who must face the sins of her past -- past life, that is -- in order to find healing and forgiveness in this lifetime, before it’s too late yet again…); spirit trekking up and down and around and beyond the illusory mountains of this life’s journey with all of my fellow spirit trekkers, and physically trekking up and down and around the very real, and very tall, mountains that hold up the Colorado sky. |

Enjoying my journey and trusting my knowing, I now spend my time working with clients as their personal Intuitive Life Coach, working on my next novel (Ghost Time, which is about a woman who must face the sins of her past -- past life, that is -- in order to find healing and forgiveness in this lifetime, before it’s too late yet again…); spirit trekking up and down and around and beyond the illusory mountains of this life’s journey with all of my fellow spirit trekkers, and physically trekking up and down and around the very real, and very tall, mountains that hold up the Colorado sky. |

The Well Within -- Self-Hypnosis for Optimum Health | by Kristina Woodall May 07, 2012 | $6.99 | 38138 words | Sample 20% |
| Author bio: My base station is, and pretty much always has been, Colorado. Living in one of the most beautiful places on Earth, Boulder (nestled on the edge of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains), my focus is on building bridges between what we believe life is all about and the mystery destination just beyond the veil. I am, like you, a spirit trekker -- always seeking to discover, explore, question, analyze, and heal the rift between flesh and spirit; illusion and truth. There is more to life than paying the bills, losing fat, getting (or not losing) our current source of employment, being politically correct, and forever striving to meet the external expectations of others; there is the inner spiritual journey to discover who we truly are, why we’re actually here, and what we really need to know and learn in order to summit to the light. EDUCATION: I began my adventures in higher education at the age of seventeen. Winning a Resident Honor’s Scholarship (one of thirty people across the nation), I spent my Senior year of High School at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. A year later, I opted to transfer to Humboldt State University in northern California. (Planting myself in the midst of tall trees, healthy skies, and open spaces, Humboldt was just what the doctor ordered for one dreadfully homesick for my native Colorado.) Four years later, in June of 1985, I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a double major in Journalism and Political Science. First published at the age of 14, winning Third Prize in the Denver Post’s State-wide Christmas Essay Writing Contest, I long possessed a passion for putting word to paper. At 17, at 2 o’clock in the morning (after a night shift at Wendy’s) I sat down and wrote an essay for San Diego’s East County Essay Writing Contest, and took First Place. At the age of 21, with my Journalism degree in hand and a passion for writing in my heart, I hurried back to Denver and obtained employment as a writer/editor for Golden Bell Press. A few years later, I became a Technical Writer for the United States Government (Bureau of Reclamation). When my contract with the government expired in 1990, the lure of the snow-capped mountains to the west of Denver was unbearable, and I moved up to Dillon, Colorado (elev. 9,800 feet!) on faith alone. The cost of my seat-of-the-pants decision to trek to higher grounds was high. With employment scarce and writing opportunities non-existent, I rode out a storm of odd jobs and inspirational (spiritual) challenges. The reward for this choice, however, was also high. Sitting on a boulder next to a lost lake in the Eaglesnest Wilderness (overlooking my new mountain home), I realized that I could now fulfill my thirst for even higher education, as well as my desire to help others traverse the highs and lows of our mutual journey on this planet. In 1993, at the age of 30, I went back to school to obtain my Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from Regis University in Denver. Building my own psychotherapy practice in Dillon, I sound found that traditional therapy lacked the equipment and traveling tools necessary to reach the depths of truth that existed deep within mind and emotion, body and feeling. Tired of talking around and around in circles, I went back and trained at the Transpersonal Hypnotherapy Institute (THI) in Boulder, Colorado and became a Certified Transpersonal Clinical Hypnotherapist and a Certified Transpersonal Medical Hypnotherapist. (Transpersonal hypnotherapy is a natural extension of Transpersonal Psychology, the fourth wave of psychology which recognizes the spiritual potential of human beings.) My areas of expertise included transpersonal journeywork (emotional healing; working with the unconscious mind; mind/body therapeutic practices; and ego strengthening); Jungian complexes and archetypes (working with archetypes in a transpersonal context; developing inner resources; and archetypal guidework); retrieval work (hypnotic regression therapy; healing early childhood trauma; abreaction/reframing; working with introjected parent figures; and inner child work); shadow work (Jungian dreamwork and active imagination); sub-personality therapy; resistance and problem solving strategies; phobias, weight management, smoking cessation, pain/disease management, work therapy; pre- and post-op therapy; hypnodontics, allergies, and natural childbirth. In 2004, I moved to Boulder and became an Intuitive Life Coach (helping clients build a complete physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual tool chest that would enable them to weather the storms of the passage on this planet and climb to the heights of their wildest dreams).

In addition, pulling my passion for creative writing off the back-burner, I have now completed two novels: Dance for the Rain (about a young woman overcoming her fear of change and finding passion in the turmoil that is life) and Sight Seeing (the first in a series of paranormal suspense novels about a reluctant psychic/hypnotherapist who fights to protect the mountains behind her Colorado mountain town). Enjoying my journey and trusting my knowing, I now spend my time working with clients as their personal Intuitive Life Coach, working on my next novel (Ghost Time, which is about a woman who must face the sins of her past -- past life, that is -- in order to find healing and forgiveness in this lifetime, before it’s too late yet again…); spirit trekking up and down and around and beyond the illusory mountains of this life’s journey with all of my fellow spirit trekkers, and physically trekking up and down and around the very real, and very tall, mountains that hold up the Colorado sky. |

The Well Within -- Harnessing Your Inner Healing Power Using Self-Hypnosis, The Complete Practical Guide That You Can Actually Use to Enhance Your Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual Health, Books 1 through 10 | by Kristina Woodall May 07, 2012 | $29.99 | 127920 words | Sample 20% |
| Author bio: My base station is, and pretty much always has been, Colorado. Living in one of the most beautiful places on Earth, Boulder (nestled on the edge of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains), my focus is on building bridges between what we believe life is all about and the mystery destination just beyond the veil. I am, like you, a spirit trekker -- always seeking to discover, explore, question, analyze, and heal the rift between flesh and spirit; illusion and truth. There is more to life than paying the bills, losing fat, getting (or not losing) our current source of employment, being politically correct, and forever striving to meet the external expectations of others; there is the inner spiritual journey to discover who we truly are, why we’re actually here, and what we really need to know and learn in order to summit to the light. EDUCATION: I began my adventures in higher education at the age of seventeen. Winning a Resident Honor’s Scholarship (one of thirty people across the nation), I spent my Senior year of High School at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles. A year later, I opted to transfer to Humboldt State University in northern California. (Planting myself in the midst of tall trees, healthy skies, and open spaces, Humboldt was just what the doctor ordered for one dreadfully homesick for my native Colorado.) Four years later, in June of 1985, I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a double major in Journalism and Political Science. First published at the age of 14, winning Third Prize in the Denver Post’s State-wide Christmas Essay Writing Contest, I long possessed a passion for putting word to paper. At 17, at 2 o’clock in the morning (after a night shift at Wendy’s) I sat down and wrote an essay for San Diego’s East County Essay Writing Contest, and took First Place. At the age of 21, with my Journalism degree in hand and a passion for writing in my heart, I hurried back to Denver and obtained employment as a writer/editor for Golden Bell Press. A few years later, I became a Technical Writer for the United States Government (Bureau of Reclamation). When my contract with the government expired in 1990, the lure of the snow-capped mountains to the west of Denver was unbearable, and I moved up to Dillon, Colorado (elev. 9,800 feet!) on faith alone. The cost of my seat-of-the-pants decision to trek to higher grounds was high. With employment scarce and writing opportunities non-existent, I rode out a storm of odd jobs and inspirational (spiritual) challenges. The reward for this choice, however, was also high. Sitting on a boulder next to a lost lake in the Eaglesnest Wilderness (overlooking my new mountain home), I realized that I could now fulfill my thirst for even higher education, as well as my desire to help others traverse the highs and lows of our mutual journey on this planet. In 1993, at the age of 30, I went back to school to obtain my Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from Regis University in Denver. Building my own psychotherapy practice in Dillon, I sound found that traditional therapy lacked the equipment and traveling tools necessary to reach the depths of truth that existed deep within mind and emotion, body and feeling. Tired of talking around and around in circles, I went back and trained at the Transpersonal Hypnotherapy Institute (THI) in Boulder, Colorado and became a Certified Transpersonal Clinical Hypnotherapist and a Certified Transpersonal Medical Hypnotherapist. (Transpersonal hypnotherapy is a natural extension of Transpersonal Psychology, the fourth wave of psychology which recognizes the spiritual potential of human beings.) My areas of expertise included transpersonal journeywork (emotional healing; working with the unconscious mind; mind/body therapeutic practices; and ego strengthening); Jungian complexes and archetypes (working with archetypes in a transpersonal context; developing inner resources; and archetypal guidework); retrieval work (hypnotic regression therapy; healing early childhood trauma; abreaction/reframing; working with introjected parent figures; and inner child work); shadow work (Jungian dreamwork and active imagination); sub-personality therapy; resistance and problem solving strategies; phobias, weight management, smoking cessation, pain/disease management, work therapy; pre- and post-op therapy; hypnodontics, allergies, and natural childbirth.

Follow the Why by Velocity | by Deborah Whitaker May 07, 2012 | $3.99 | 19477 words | Sample 20% |
| Author bio: Deborah Whitaker Deb has always been fascinated by the transformative power of story. As a young girl, words charmed her in their ability to weave ideas into shape and color. Unifying her early excursions into both poetry and psychological research, she wrote and published a thought-provoking parable on the art and science of self-love called Looking Glass Sky, which arose from her years in private practice as a psychotherapist. Deb’s love of story next led her deep into the fabric of screenwriting, from which she spun four feature length screenplays based on the mythic hero’s (heroine’s) journey format. Threaded throughout the lives of each of the leading ladies in these inspirational stories, you’ll find hers. They include an ageless astronaut, a 40’s jazz singer, a Clipper ship Captain, and a mother with a deep dedication to both her daughter and the earth. Deb’s latest heroines, including Ms. Bee Haven, Miss Guided Light and Velocity, brings full circle her childhood passion to paint the world 3D. Craig Cloutier Craig’s passion in life is to uncover the art and science of the dream. This passion has taken him on many exciting journeys, starting with a bicycle ride across America at the age of 20, operating a successful Tropical Design business in New York City, building “Airships†in the 80’s, and to producing, directing and hosting the television series “Power of a Dream.†Craig is a musician (bass guitar), a designer ("it's all about form and function!"), and meditates best while roller skating. He regularly chats with plants, animals and bugs. Some of the extraordinary stops on his dream journey include the time Tony Robbins stopped the firewalk to add more shovels of hot coals just as he was about to take his first firewalk, his exclusive interview with the man who saved the Hubble telescope; and the time he first set eyes upon Mzzz Pink on a hot July day at York Beach, Maine. |
