Comments on the 2011 printed version of Hauntings & Healings:- “This book is totally un-putdownable – a wonderful read.” J.L. Somerset, UK “I love your book, very informative and friendly, which is probably why I felt drawn to it. I am very interested in this subject but have avoided buying direct literature on it up to now. Just wanted to read the right thing first, it’s a minefield out there.” E.C. Bristol, UK “I loved the book and its kind of come at the right time as Ive been really getting into meditation and healing with a little group of friends over the last 6 months. Its answered a lot of the questions I had recently. I did spend ages online trying to find ways to close down meditation sessions and didn't really find anything but the info in the book is really good. I like the book as it was so honest. Lots of books like that are almost bragging about the experiences or gifts people have but yours is very refreshing.” M.M. Newcastle-on-Tyne, UK “Helen Bevan's book draws on her interpretation of experiences over many decades. As a retired librarian of many years standing she writes well and it is easy to read. She benefits from a working partnership with her husband Keith who is also a healer and medium and I recommend it to anyone who finds the subject of interest.” This 5 star review is from Amazon.co.uk by Snowflake 12 Feb 2012 “I wanted to write and let you know Helen how much I enjoyed your writings. Well written and very interesting to read. I especially related to the happenings from Central Library to around Beric's birth time because I remembered you telling me about it as it happened... What an interesting life you have had.” H.C. Bristol, UK Helen Bevan has aimed her book at those who are interested in learning more of this through her wisdom and experience - not trying to convince hard-line sceptics but seeking to open minds, plant seeds and nurture them as they grow, helping people along their various spiritual paths.




Healing Haunted Histories


Book Description

Healing Haunted Histories tackles the oldest and deepest injustices on the North American continent. Violations which inhabit every intersection of settler and Indigenous worlds, past and present. Wounds inextricably woven into the fabric of our personal and political lives. And it argues we can heal those wounds through the inward and outward journey of decolonization. The authors write as, and for, settlers on this journey, exploring the places, peoples, and spirits that have formed (and deformed) us. They look at issues of Indigenous justice and settler “response-ability” through the lens of Elaine’s Mennonite family narrative, tracing Landlines, Bloodlines, and Songlines like a braided river. From Ukrainian steppes to Canadian prairies to California chaparral, they examine her forebearers’ immigrant travails and trauma, settler unknowing and complicity, and traditions of resilience and conscience. And they invite readers to do the same. Part memoir, part social, historical, and theological analysis, and part practical workbook, this process invites settler Christians (and other people of faith) into a discipleship of decolonization. How are our histories, landscapes, and communities haunted by continuing Indigenous dispossession? How do we transform our colonizing self-perceptions, lifeways, and structures? And how might we practice restorative solidarity with Indigenous communities today?

In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts


Book Description

A “thought-provoking and powerful” study that reframes everything you’ve been taught about addiction and recovery—from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Myth of Normal (Bruce Perry, author of The Boy Who Was Raised as a Dog). A world-renowned trauma expert combines real-life stories with cutting-edge research to offer a holistic approach to understanding addiction—its origins, its place in society, and the importance of self-compassion in recovery. Based on Gabor Maté’s two decades of experience as a medical doctor and his groundbreaking work with people with addiction on Vancouver’s skid row, this #1 international bestseller radically re-envisions a much misunderstood condition by taking a compassionate approach to substance abuse and addiction recovery. In the same vein as Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts traces the root causes of addiction to childhood trauma and examines the pervasiveness of addiction in society. Dr. Maté presents addiction not as a discrete phenomenon confined to an unfortunate or weak-willed few, but as a continuum that runs throughout—and perhaps underpins—our society. It is not a medical “condition” distinct from the lives it affects but rather the result of a complex interplay among personal history, emotional and neurological development, brain chemistry, and the drugs and behaviors of addiction. Simplifying a wide array of brain and addiction research findings from around the globe, the book avoids glib self-help remedies, instead promoting a thorough and compassionate self-understanding as the first key to healing and wellness. Dr. Maté argues persuasively against contemporary health, social, and criminal justice policies toward addiction and how they perpetuate the War on Drugs. The mix of personal stories—including the author’s candid discussion of his own “high-status” addictive tendencies—and science with positive solutions makes the book equally useful for lay readers and professionals.




Hauntings


Book Description

What does life ask of us, and how are we to answer that summons? Are we here just to propagate the species anew? Do any of us really believe that we are here to make money and then die? Does life matter, in the end, and if so, how, and in what fashion? What guiding intelligence weaves the threads of our individual biographies? What hauntings of the invisible world invigorate, animate, and direct the multiple narratives of daily life? In Hauntings, James Hollis considers how we are all governed by the presence of invisible forms--spirits, ghosts, ancestral and parental influences, inner voices, dreams, impulses, untold stories, complexes, synchronicities, and mysteries--that move through us and through history. He offers a way to understand them psychologically, examining the persistence of the past in influencing our present, conscious lives and noting that engagement with mystery is what life asks of each of us. From such engagements, a deeper, more thoughtful, more considered life may come. "James Hollis is the most lucid thinker I know about the complexities and complexes that interfere with living a full life.... He is one of our great teachers and healers." --Stephen Dunn, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet




Healing Houses - My Work as a Psychic House Cleaner


Book Description

While it's clear that these wavelengths are sensed, albeit unconsciously, by other living beings, the question of whether our minds still convey energy after our death, or whether such energetic charges can permeate inanimate matter, and cause it to resonate, have yet to be researched, scientifically. Healing Houses details Sheldon Norberg's two decades as a professional psychic whose career has focused on houses where the death, disease, or trauma of a prior owner left not only ghosts, but rationally inexplicable phenomena and physically palpable sensations for his clients to live with. While many of us find ourselves unable to stop thinking, those who can't suppress their ability to feel often find their homes convey unpleasant information, which in some situations can be overpowering. In reporting dozens of his cases, Norberg explains how the energy patterns of previous inhabitants affect the current residents; and more than that, how current models of physics agree with this concept. He also details the intuitive processes he uses to shift these patterns and restore energetic balance, presents a broad cross-cultural perspective to his work, and gives readers basic meditations for working on their own. "People whose homes hold lasting impressions of the deaths or trauma of the previous owners can be seriously affected, and admitting to it can put them at odds with rationality" says Norberg. "Ghosts or no ghosts, my clients find themselves affected by the negative feelings of their new homes, and frequently adjust their lives to suit these feelings." Healing Houses maps out a sophisticated metaphysical perspective and traces its development through case studies of dozens of the houses Norberg has worked in during his 20-year psychic career. Whether discussing his training in the feminine first field of Intuition Medicine, giving a global overview of house healing practices, or offering house healing basics to his readers, Norberg's wry wit shines through. But it is his compassion, for his clients, their homes, and for those whose remnant energy has manifested in some unforeseeable way, that makes this book a healing odyssey. Beginning with Transcendental Meditation at the age of ten, Sheldon Norberg's lifelong interest in states of consciousness led to a number of studies that helped organize his professional practice. After completing his Master of Intuition Medicine training at the Academy of Intuition Medicine, he earned his BA in Psycho-Spiritual Healing at San Francisco State University. His deep interest in consciousness and health led him to extensive practice in meditation and energetic healing, as well as yoga, sensory deprivation, ritual and divination. He has been featured in such media as The New York Times, New York Magazine, Booklist, The San Francisco Chronicle, and The San Francisco Examiner. "Sheldon has a unique intuitive skill set - the ability to detect and identify energy patterns held within a space. Along with this, he has formulated a process to shift aberrant energy patterns in order to induce clarity. Some intuitives heal people- Sheldon heals houses." Francesca McCartney, PhDFounder, Academy of Intuition Medicine & Energy Medicine University Psychic house healing is very serious work. I recommend anyone with an interest in energy healing in general, or in healing houses in particular, to read this book. You will walk away with a much clearer understanding of how we interface with our homes, and the contracts that we enter into with them. August 2010 Bonnie Cehovet
