LOA for the Real World: 7 Big Fat Clues to Getting What You Want	by Jeannette Maw Oct. 13, 2011	Free!	6771 words	Read a sample
Author bio: Good Vibe Coaching isnâ€™t about me â€“ itâ€™s about you â€“ but hereâ€™s a little personal background: For years I did everything the way many still do â€¦ struggling with job changes, relationship breakups, financial upsets, health problems, etc. Little did I know I was making life harder than it needed to be! After building a â€œsuccessfulâ€ corporate career in financial services as a Certified Financial Planner and retirement plan specialist, I soon lived the rut of autopilot. I didnâ€™t know there was any other way to do it, until one day a homeless guy invited me to hit the road with him and the invite appealed! I realized something might not be right with this life Iâ€™d built if giving it all up to wander the streets sounded like a good trade. It was one of those turning point moments that led to a heartfelt search for change. (Thank you, homeless guy, for the wake-up call.) Soon afterward I discovered the Law of Attraction and became passionate about sharing this secret for life transformation. Trained at CoachU and a certified Martha Beck Master Coach, I created Good Vibe Coaching for the extreme privilege of helping you remove the obstacles keeping you from the life you want. In fact, I co-founded Good Vibe Coaching Academy in support of other coaches' success as well. Author of " The Magic of Pray Rain Journaling,â€ contributor to Jack Canfieldâ€™s "Life Lessons for Mastering the Law of Attraction,â€ co-author of â€œ101 Great Ways to Change Your Life, Vol. 3,â€ and regular contributor to The Catalyst Magazine, I also speak on deliberate creation to various groups across the country. This is your official invite to challenge your beliefs, revive your fantasies, know that anything is possible and harness the Law of Attraction to get what you want, once and for all! For those interested in more details: Iâ€™m an animal lover and volunteer for my local animal shelter as a foster mom. Nature is my touchstone and I love hiking with the dogs! I'm an avid movie-goer; Mexican food is my staple; yoga helps me stay grounded and feeling good. Chocolate, music, classic cars also top my list of favorite things in life. My studies over the years have included personal finance, diet & nutrition, astrology, feng shui, angels, chanting and kinesiology, among other things. Pleasure to meet you!

The Principle of Gift	by Laurie Sones Dec. 06, 2010	Free!	13150 words	Sample 100%
Author bio: Laurie Sones was born in Essex, UK in 1950. His Christian upbringing coupled with a love of music led him to become a leading church choirboy. But this spiritual side was brought into sharp question when his mother, so much the driving force in his life, died before he had yet reached 18 years old. Laurie began his quest for wider philosophical and spiritual answers to the meaning of his life and life in general. Despite all the study and note-taking there was always a reluctance to attempt to put discoveries into bookform. It was a BBC report of a multiple rape of a 6-year-old girl in the Bosnian war that finally galvanised things. A deep emotional reaction unleashed the drive to try to tackle, on paper, the big questions the individual asks himself, this shocking violation used as the backdrop. (â€œIf such a terrible event can be rationalised philosophically then so surely can all thingsâ€). His first work, A Pocketful of Reasoning, illustrates not just depth and breadth of study but a capacity for practical suggestions the individual could follow. It represents over 40 years of ongoing experience, work and deliberation with the subject matter. The Principle of Gift, his second work, majors on creativity and the application of its fundamental principles for use in the lives of ordinary people. It also serves as a much shortened and simplified version of its predecessor with some common usage of material. Three more books are already in various stages of development. The idea is to produce a series of concise works (2/3 hour reads) under the broad umbrella of 'Realign Your Thinking, Realign Your Life'. 'Healing You: The New Keys' on the subject of self-healing is set to be the next publication. The author welcomes contact from readers. (â€œThere is always more for each of us to learn. The journey is never completeâ€). Laurie Sones is a qualified advanced hypnotherapist.

Yes we can!!! God's manual on self talk.	by Free From Bondage Ministry Oct. 21, 2010	Free!	11177 words	Read a sample
Author bio: Free From Bondage Ministry was started just a few short years ago. As a newly ordained minister, I felt that too many people were tinkering around with God's Word. Translating it into what made them comfortable, rather than how God's Word could help them be accountable and truly righteous. And the stakes are too high to be tinkering. It is your eternal life you are gambling with. Because there is a distinct difference between saying to believe in God, and acting as a believer in God. And that difference could make all the difference for your salvation. The message from Free From Bondage Ministry is simple, yet not easy. But we have seen "miracles" that even many with a strong faith discard as "impossible". Which made us aware that the message we got from God needed to be brought to a bigger public. Hence these books. There is more information available at our website: www.freefrombondage.weebly.com And yes, we are a very small ministry. No bells and whistles, no fancy stuff. We use what comes our way to spread God's Word. So referrals are highly appreciated. May God bless you, Free From Bondage Ministry.
