The Book of Nothing is a large gathering of quotes and questions that were painstakingly pulled from live satsangs by my dear friend, the late Gordon Goodman, M.D. He spent an entire year pulling out helpful quotes and questions from my responses to students during our live, online Sunday Satsangs. It is a book you can read forward, backward, or start anywhere you like. You can read one quote or question at a time, or all 624 of them one after the other. Do as you will: it's Your book! And it's my hope that You'll come to recognize this as You go through it. The Book of Nothing can be used as a morning meditation or you can use it to take a dose of clarity as many times during the day or night as you want. I've always wanted to publish a book like this, with quotes ranging from the deceptively causal to deep-consciousness and questions in the same way that I had always wanted to write a book about both recovery and nonduality prior to publishing Beyond Recovery: Nonduality and the Twelve Steps back in 2012. May You find it as rewarding as I have. This book has been a real labor of love-my love for you. This teaching is not for everyone and it doesn't try to be. But for those who come to call it their own, there's literally nothing like it in the world. It's the fastest way to wake up that I have ever encountered. It's not "mine: " it just arrived here. Welcome to The Living Method of Spiritual Awakening.

Thirty years ago, Gigi Langer was a prisoner of her worries who used alcohol, romance, and professional accomplishments to soothe her frayed nerves.

Worry Less Now offers four life strategies and 50 eclectic tools to dissolve the “whispered lies” of negative self-talk. Although many books address negative thinking, very few give the reader step-by-step directions on how to defeat it. Others simply advocate a single approach. With candor and humor, Langer describes a wide variety of strategies that helped her and others defeat dysfunctional relationships, perfectionism, addiction, and worry about loved ones. As an award-winning writer and professor, Langer skillfully shares compelling stories and exercises that empower you to: -MANAGE life’s most difficult challenges with calm wisdom -CREATE healthy relationships that blossom and thrive -FULFILL your dreams through positive thinking -SERVE others in their personal growth Regardless of the situation, Worry Less Now will help you move through it with courage, hope, and insight.

"The feeling was electric-energy humming through my body. I felt like blood was pouring into areas of my tissues that it had not been able to reach for some time. It was relieving and healing, subtler than the feeling from getting off on drugs, but it was detectable and lovely, and of course, there was no hangover, just a feeling of more ease than I could remember. I felt a warmth come over me similar to what I felt when I had done heroin, but far from the darkness of that insanity, this was pure light-a way through." - Tommy Rosen, on his first yoga experience Most of us deal with addiction in some form. While you may not be a fall-down drunk, anorexic, or a gambling addict, you likely struggle with addiction in other ways. Workaholism, overeating, and compulsively engaging with technology like video games, texting, and Facebook are also highly common examples. And if you don't suffer from addiction, chances are you know someone who does. Through more than 20 years of recovery and in working professionally with others, Tommy Rosen has uncovered core elements of recovery and healing, what he refers to as Recovery 2.0. In the book, he shares his own past struggles with addiction, and powerful, tested tools for breaking free from the obstacles that stand in the way of a holistic and lasting recovery. Building off the key tenets of the 12-Step program, he has developed an innovative approach that includes • Looking at the roots of addiction; your family history and "Addiction Story" • Daily breathing practices, meditation, yoga, and body awareness • A healthy, alkaline-based diet to aid with detox, boost immunity, increase vitality, support your entire recovery, and help prevent relapse • Discovering your mission, living on purpose, and being of service to others Recovery 2.0 will help readers not only release their addictions, but thrive in their recovery.

America has always been committed to the idea that citizens can work together to build a common world. Today, three afflictions keep us from pursuing that noble ideal. The first and most obvious affliction is identity politics, which seeks to transform America by turning politics into a religious venue of sacrificial offering. For now, the sacrificial scapegoat is the white, heterosexual, man. After he is humiliated and purged, who will be the object of cathartic rage? White women? Black men? Identity politics is the anti-egalitarian spiritual eugenics of our age. It demands that pure and innocent groups ascend, and the stained transgressor groups be purged. The second affliction is that citizens oscillate back and forth, in bipolar fashion, at one moment feeling invincible on their social media platforms and, the next, feeling impotent to face the everyday problems of life without the guidance of experts and global managers. Third, Americans are afflicted by a disease that cannot quite be named, characterized by an addictive hope that they can find cheap shortcuts that bypass the difficult labors of everyday life. Instead of real friendship, we seek social media “friends.” Instead of meals at home, we order “fast food.” Instead of real shopping, we “shop” online. Instead of counting on our families and neighbors to address our problems, we look to the state to take care of us. In its many forms, this disease promises release from our labors, yet impoverishes us all. American Awakening chronicles all of these problems, yet gives us hope for the future.

Suffering A Path of Awakening takes the reader on a 39-year journey of one woman's incredible life from a victim of sexual abuse, drugs, alcohol, and depression to the doors of death, into 12-step recovery, many spiritual paths and finally to full embodied awakening to Consciousness in August of 2008 with almost 11 years of sobriety. Similar to a pebble in a still lake, this book is more like a rock in a pond. Its ripples are great and they will touch the shores of many hearts almost immediately and in a profound way. Dive in wholly and feel the raw truth and vulnerability of this incredible real-life story. You can't help but to be inspired and deeply touched. This brave and heart-wrenching adventure will forever change the way you look at suffering and enlightenment. "I am fascinated by this book...! It is very moving, sad, interesting...it brings so many feelings in the way the author tells the story that "has to be told"! I couldn't put it down. I finished the book thinking this is an Awakening material that everyone, teenager or adult MUST read! I have not read any explanation of the unity of the self with the universe with such flow of energy and so graphic; I could float!" Esther Gonzalez, Graphic Artist, Orlando, FL "WOW! This is one helluva book. I think that may be what happens when one lets the words coming from the creative brain pass through the heart before getting into print. Shellee Rae manages to create a mental and emotional linkage with the reader that is very strong. About three pages into the book, the power of her words and her style, and the pervasiveness of the emotions behind them, the emotions that made the words and the style something alive and something uniquely hers, took over my mind! There are a lot of ways in which books are classified {novels, bios, how-to's, etc.} but if there is a category called, "If I can do it, so can you, don't give up, give it a try, I will help.", that is where this work belongs. It is truly inspirational!" Lou Goldberg, Boston, MA

In this interdisciplinary work, Kent Dunnington brings the neglected resources of philosophical and theological analysis to bear on the problem of addiction. Drawing on the insights of Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas, he formulates a compelling alternative to the two dominant models of addiction--addiction as disease and addiction as choice.
