From the internationally bestselling author of The Heartfulness Way comes a journey to the center of our consciousness, mapping a path for you to connect to your highest self through Heartfulness meditation and guided chakra practices.
When we think of wellbeing, we often think of our physical and mental health-tending to our bodies and minds to find peace, purpose, and connection in our lives. But as Kamlesh D. Patel (affectionately known as Daaji), spiritual leader of the Heartfulness Organization and fourth in line to the raja yoga tradition illuminates, there is a third system we too often overlook: The Spiritual Anatomy.
Acting as a sort of atlas for consciousness, the chakras-the centers of spiritual energy that comprise our spiritual anatomy-lead us back to our hearts, ourselves, and the sustainable happiness and meaning we crave. Along the way readers will learn:
– The role and importance of the chakras
– What blocks our chakras and how to clean them
– Meditation techniques that bring you closer to the heart’s center
– How connecting deeply with our chakras can open our hearts, minds, and souls
As grounding as it is groundbreaking, Spiritual Anatomy is a must-read for seekers, meditators, and anyone who wants to cultivate joy in their life.

itihasa of the highest order, is considered adi kavya, the first poem to have
been composed. Written by Valm ki during Rama’s time, and ratified by him, this
timeless epic has been treated with utmost care by all acaryas in their famed
commentaries. Since the advent of human civilization, it has inspired many
poets and dramatists across the subcontinent and has been transcreated in
almost all Bharat ya languages. Multiple layers of philosophy and theology are
an embellishment to this classic. Its influence on Bharat ya music, dance,
sculpture and textiles is unfathomable.
In
this two-volume presentation, noted Vedic scholar Dushyanth Sridhar retells the
Ramayanam as a conversation between Valmki and Narada. Infused with a dash of
creativity that is accepted even by traditional scholars, and drawing upon
interesting details from renowned and lesser-known works, this timeless epic
has been recreated in a never-before manner. Furthermore, expressive sketches
by eminent artist Keshav, and drawings of rare artefacts by Upasana add great
value to this edition, making it the most trusted rendering of the Ramayanam
for readers across all ages.
How did Brahma create alluring women, and for what purpose? Why did the righteous King Bhangashvana choose womanhood? How did the sage Markandeya’s pupil prevent his guru’s wife from committing adultery? What role did Indra play in the births of Vishvamitra and Parashu Rama? How were death, diseases, desire and anger created? Why and how did the institution of kingship come about? What can one learn from the mouse who escaped the cat, the owl, the mongoose and the hunter; or the wise jackal who was betrayed by the lion king? Why did Shiva swallow Shukra, the guru of the Asuras? Embedded within the lengthy discourse on dharma in the Shanti and Anushasana Parvans of the Mahabharata are answers to a whole range of such questions—moral lessons from a dying Bhishma to King Yudhishthira, on life, death and everything in between. The Dharma of Unfaithful Wives and Faithful Jackals is a highly entertaining selection of these tales—tangled at times, insightful at others, yet always quirky—about women, both good and bad, fathers and sons, kings, gods and kings of gods, and fables. The perceptive translations by Wendy Doniger, hailed as ‘the greatest living mythologist’, are a treat for anyone fascinated by the bewildering complexity of Hindu myth and lore.
We all need a little more sanuk in our lives
Sanuk is a Thai concept that can loosely be translated as meaning ‘fun’. Though sanuk is in fact much more than that; it’s about achieving pleasure and joy in all aspects of life. For Thai people, if it’s not sanuk, it’s not worth doing.
Thai people believe that it’s the little things that add up to a joyful life. Whether it’s raising happy kids, enjoying a quick chat with your neighbour or having a laugh with friends, they try to bring a sense of joy into their daily routines. This easygoing, fun-loving way of life is why Thailand is often called The Land of Smiles.
But how can we learn to prioritise this sense of fun and pleasure in our own lives? With recent clinical studies showing a clear link between a person’s outlook on life and their health, a mindset of optimism and positivity has obvious benefits. Being a glass half full kind of person doesn’t just help us live longer, it helps us live better.
Embracing sanuk and approaching life a glass-half-full attitude can make you happier, healthier and more productive – and this book will show you how.

In hard seasons, it's easy to feel lonely, lost, unsure, stuck, and even flat-out unhappy. Is Everyone Happier Than Me? by Sarah Bragg provides practical and relatable answers to the questions you've likely been asking about your life, and poses a few more, to help you figure out what's standing in the way of your happiness, peace, and connection.
The point where you feel like your life is unraveling can actually be a place of unimaginable growth--an awakening--if you're willing to ask yourself a few simple questions.
In an age where everyone else's successes are flaunted in front of you on social media, it can be a struggle to feel true happiness and contentment exactly where you are.

There are times in life when we look back and feel desperate to make time stand still, particularly when we get blindsided by unexpected changes. But we can't stop the flow of life, and we can't stop time. What's more, looking back doesn't enable us to go back. More often than not, it just makes us stuck. In a place. In a space. In a memory. In a mindset. In a habit.
In Luke 17:32, Jesus drops three little words: "Remember Lot's wife." We don’t know her name, history, or story. All we know is that when she was fleeing Sodom and Gomorrah, she was told not to look back, and she did the one thing she was asked not do. She looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. And out of the 170 women referred to in the Scriptures, she's the only one Jesus told us to remember.
With a rallying cry to "Remember Lot's wife," Bible teacher, international speaker, activist, and bestselling author Christine Caine motivates us to stop looking back, to get unstuck and to keep moving forward into God's promises and purpose for our lives. We may not know all God's plans for us. We may not know where we are going, how long it will take us, or what we will encounter along the way, but with the strategies Christine Caine gives, we can move on from where we are to where God wants us to be.
In this new book, Christine will motivate you to
1. stop looking back and start looking to Jesus;
2. invite Jesus in to help you get unstuck from the many places we often find ourselves;
3. move on from where you are into all God's plans, purposes, and promises for your life; and
4. look forward to the future and keep moving toward it in faith--especially when your world is nothing like it once was.
Jesus is beckoning us onward into the newness of what lies ahead. Stop disqualifying yourself by getting stuck in the past. It's time to remember Lot's wife and not look back but move forward boldly.
