In the busyness of our modern lifestyle, it is difficult to see and experience God in our lives. Unless we stop and listen, it is hard to hear what God wishes to reveal to our hearts. In publishing this book, Fr. Brendan offers us not only a challenge but an invitation. An invitation to take a break, to find some quiet time to be with the Lord. It is there, in the quiet of God’s presence that we will find rest for our souls. The book is comprised of a series of homilies. Each one of the homilies was delivered in Fr. Brendan’s parish. Each one emphasizes the presence of God in the daily events of our lives. He challenges us to step back from the busyness of the modern world and all its distractions and focus on the Word of God. Many of the homilies tell a story of a day-to-day life. Fr. Brendan then connects that story of ordinary life to the story of God acting in our own lives. When we step back and reflect on the presence of God in our lives, we see that God is not only present but that he has woven a fabric – a fabric rich in grace, telling the divine the story that is deep within each of us.

Use this spiritual guide to equip yourself with the tools needed to tear down anxiety and build inner peace. Spiritual people often find that their own expectations of living a life dedicated to a higher power makes them more susceptible to high-functioning anxiety. Sometimes, traditional relaxation techniques either do not work, don’t last, or, in some cases, actually increase their anxiety. Psychotherapist, yoga teacher, and interfaith minister Rev. Connie L. Habash has helped hundreds of spiritual people overcome fear and anxiety, regain happiness, and feel calmer. In over twenty-five years as a counselor helping spiritual people overcome anxiety, Rev. Connie has taught that it takes more than chanting mantras, stretching, or relaxation techniques to calm anxiety. It requires a transformation in perception, moment-to-moment body awareness, and a conscious response to thoughts and emotions. Awakening from Anxiety provides valuable psycho-spiritual tools to deepen spiritual awakening and calm fears:Learn what anxiety is and when it becomes a problemUnderstand the six mistakes spiritual people make that increase anxietyDiscover the seven keys to a more calm, confident, courageous lifeKnow how to break through the old patterns of stress, worry, and fear into a new perception of your true selfExplore spiritual principles and yoga philosophy to cultivate inner peace If you enjoyed Stop Anxiety from Stopping You and First, We Make the Beast Beautiful, Awakening from Anxiety will take your healing and renewal from anxiety to the next level. “A book I will recommend to many for both practical advice and spiritual insights for handling stress, worry, and anxiety.”?Becca Anderson, author of Prayers for Calm

Based on comprehensive research of textile arts and traditional symbolism, this compendium explores how societies, in the absence of writing, imparted wisdom to the next generation through the use of objects and practices of daily life, namely fiber arts—knotting, weaving, spinning, basketry, among others. Arguing that symbolism has been overshadowed by rationalism despite its continued existence in remote parts of the world, this unique record strives to examine these traditions and reunite them with their ancient meanings. This invaluable account will appeal to academics in the fields of anthropology, art history, and religion.

This book is the natural unfolding of my own unique destiny thread that I picked up by way of sacred embroidery of my Slavic destiny rug called "Rushnyk" in May of 2017. It continued to unfold in most mysterious but somehow more and more conscious ways through planting seeds of my Celtic Birthtree "Rowan" along powerful places on my journey back to my roots with the Transsibirian Railway through Russia, Kasakhstan (my country of origin) and Mongolia while also embroidering and holding the thread of my ancestral lineage. It continued with powerful connection with the three Norns of the past, present and future and the World Tree "Yggdrasil", all the way to simply becoming a vessel for co-creative destiny weaving together and through the Norns, my Soul and Source. This book is a documentation of my own heroine's journey ever unfolding through "seeing" signs and symbols in embroidered textiles, runes and other interconnected messages in the everyday life with divine eyes. Come with me on this wondrous journey called life and start weaving your own destiny with ALL that you ARE, with all your senses and ALL seeing and feeling. This is the mysterious art of weaving your own destiny- the WYRDING WAY.Testimonials:"Erika shares so very generously the insights and knowledge she has been given during her travels in the Altaimountainregion and it feels very special and personal to be able to take part in this wisdom. It's a rich travelers story to oneself and reading Erika's book I can see the women in Mongolia and Kazakhstan in front of me stitching their destiny thread, and with their help and the inspiration from Erika's book, which can really work as a guide, I hope to be able to pick up my own thread!" (Johanna Norrbo, journalist and writer, Sweden) "The Wyrding Way is an amazing account of Erika's journey in which she masterfully interweaves her life story about finding her roots with her integral vision on life and with the rich and ancient wisdom from the metaphysical world. She is an inspiring example for others in consciously creating your life through what she calls 'destiny weaving'. (Eric Creemers, Filmmaker and Integral Life Coach, Netherlands) "An inspiring, heartfelt and beautifully researched story of our interconnectedness to Life and each other. Erika demonstrates how we can blossom into our Destiny by finding our roots and destiny thread and digging deep."

***An Act of God (previously published as The Last Testament: A Memoir) is now a major Broadway show starring Jim Parsons (The Big Bang Theory) and directed by Joe Mantello (Wicked)*** Over the course of his long and distinguished career, God has literally seen it all. And not just seen. In fact, the multitalented deity has played a pivotal role in many major events, including the Creation of the universe, the entirety of world history, and the successful transitioning of American Idol into the post–Simon Cowell era. Sometimes preachy, sometimes holier-than-thou, but always lively, An Act of God is the ultimate celebrity autobiography.
