New York fashion model Lara Nelson is swept off her feet by J.D., a mysterious man from the Australian Outback who possesses uncanny psychic abilities, insights and “gifts” that defy all rational explanation. Her fascination with him grows as they casually meet in various exotic locations around the world and his abilities become more apparent. But there is one problem: She is married. Why has this unusual man from the Outback come into Lara’s life and why are they so drawn to each other? Is there more to life and love than the material and the comforts to which she has always aspired? J.D., or James Diamond, hails from a little-known area of Australia, where he was born and raised on a vast sheep station with his lifelong friend, Mulgunya Smith. The son of an Aboriginal elder, “Mully” provides a link to “The Dreamtime” and its influence on life today. Woven through In the Stillness of a Single Breath is also the side story of a hard-bitten journalist pursuing J.D. for his own flawed reasons, ones connected to Japanese war atrocities and his own journey for inner peace. He finds it, in the most unexpected way.

These books are about listening. It addresses the wisdom already within you. It was there before you were born and it will be there after you leave. It is beyond the distractions of the body, the conflicts with the emotions and the contradictions of the mind. It is about who you are and listening to who you are. It is to help you to find your own direct knowledge with your energy, truth in creating abundance, and balance in your life. It is about the stillness of your soul and all its inner harmonies, which are your spiritual expression. You are a creative being whose keys to your emergence lies deep within you. This emergence is beyond space and time and its plays as your inner verse. You are a poetry of being. It is time for you to claim it and to love yourself and all other with the sources within you. It is your soul awareness.

Merging Buddhist mindfulness practices with the Twelve Step program, this updated edition of the bestselling recovery guide One Breath at a Time will inspire and enlighten you to live a better, healthier life. Many in recovery turn to the Twelve Steps to overcome their addictions, but struggle with the spiritual program. But what they might not realize is that Buddhist teachings are intrinsically intertwined with the lessons of the Twelve Steps, and offer time-tested methods for addressing the challenges of sobriety. In what is considered the cornerstone of the most significant recovery movement of the 21st century, Kevin Griffin shares his own extraordinary journey to sobriety and how he integrated the Twelve Steps of recovery with Buddhist mindfulness practices. With a new foreword by William Alexander, the author of Ordinary Recovery, One Breath at a Time takes you on a journey through the Steps, examining critical ideas like Powerlessness, Higher Power, and Moral Inventory through the lens of the core concepts of Buddhism—the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path, mindfulness, loving-kindness, and more. The result is a book that presents techniques and meditations for finding clarity and awareness in your life, just as it has for thousands of addicts and alcoholics.

In secular mainstream America, meditation has become as ubiquitous as yoga. But how does meditation fit into Christianity, and how does it differ from prayer? One Breath at a Time: A Skeptic's Guide to Christian Meditation reframes meditation for those who are skeptical because (1) they doubt their ability to be still and quiet and (2) they doubt the validity of meditation as a Christian spiritual practice. Using scripture, theology, and examples from the early church, this book challenges the prayer habits of Christians that leave little room for enough silence to experience and listen for God. Using five approaches—breath meditation, lectio divina, centering meditation, loving-kindness meditation, and devotional meditation—One Breath at a Time provides a practical, 40-day guide to beginning and sustaining a Christian meditation practice in an often chaotic world.

Discover the healing power of expressive arts with this hands-on guide to using creative mindfulness to reduce stress, find presence, and unlock self-knowledge Expressive arts educator Rachel Rose weaves together mindfulness practice and art therapy to demonstrate how tapping into your own innate creativity can help you find peace in a stressful world This self-directed guide teaches ten key principles of mindfulness through ten creative invitations, along with a series of simple exercises and guided prompts to help you start noticing and flexing your creative mindfulness muscles: Anchoring your practice with ritual Setting intentions Honoring your impulses Trusting the process Non-striving Letting go Requiring no prior experience of the arts or mindfulness meditation, Creating Stillness provides tools to explore difficult emotions and find insight into personal struggles and traumatic wounds. In each chapter, Rose draws from her personal experience as a teacher and facilitator of creative mindfulness to share stories and examples that help ground exercises like sketching, creative writing prompts, and more. Rose carefully walks through the process each time, explaining how to set intention and arrive in the present moment before embarking on your mindful art session; how to use objects and thoughts as creative prompts; how to return your attention to your work as you move forward; and how to distill the wisdom you have found in the process. For seasoned artists, creative mindfulness offers a chance to slow down and rediscover the transformative power that art can offer when it is detached from the need to produce something beautiful or useful. For those coming to expressive arts with existing mindfulness practices or engaged in a therapeutic process, a mindful arts practice may reveal a passion for creation you didn’t know existed. And for everyone, creative mindfulness can help us make sense of our feelings and find new ways of expressing ourselves--in art and in life.
