Review & Description

“We are one” is the thematic thread, which stings together The Naked Truth Meditations. It is a fascinating book filled with transformational art illustrating this universal principle and truly demonstrating the connection to all through the use of fine art nudes, merged with images of nature and the elements. Scientific principles as well as spiritual principles serve as the foundation laying the groundwork for our journey here. Quantum physics and its principles of energy being neither created nor destroyed is beautifully illustrated through these merged images and thought ponderings, which leaves one thinking, meditating and questioning…. Always-good things to do, and sometimes more than once a day…

This exquisite picture book is designed for the artist, the art lover, the scientist, the comedian, the believers and the non-believers, the thinkers, the philosophers, the mothers, the fathers, the sisters and the brothers… Is anyone left out? The author certainly hope not for the book is meant to be inclusive not exclusive.

The Artist is a true lover of the human form and all of the amazing things it’s capable of doing. Many of the fine art nudes are delicious yoga poses mixed with some of her favorite elements; water, fire, metal, earth, wood… It’s all very zen, feng shui, yoga, groovy… and did we mention fun?

The Naked Truth Meditations provides an easy to do guide for the basics on meditation. Several guided meditations are listed as well as a simple introduction into many forms, techniques and ways to help one shift vibration.

The principles of entrainment are touched upon as well and suggestions on how to manage control and positively shift one’s own personal vibration and energy levels. Basically, when we take responsibility and go for the brass ring baby, life shifts for everyone in a brilliant way! Life is about the journey and this one is going be good.

The 72 names of God, sacred geometry and many other interesting elements are mixed and merged with the intention of revealing more light to the viewer, and just plain making a fabulous finished work of art to captivate the viewer… or at least do a double take and ask… What is that? Yes, we made you look twice and that is the point! Once you get a glimpse below the surface of the fun façade, you will be touched on a deeper level and realize there is more love and depth than your first perception would reveal.. Just as in life, what appears one thing on the surface is much more once we scratch below the surface.

So the author asks you to join in and enjoy the ride of the “Naked Truth Meditations” and be open and playful, two of her favorite things. She asks you to consider… What if… She asks you to let all the rule go… Well almost all the rules… Keep your eyes on the road when driving… And see what comes up for you with the “Naked Truth Meditations”, when you let the walls down and the love in and remember “WE ARE ONE.”

First tagged by Katie M. S.
Customer tags: woodstock chimes, chimes, wind chimes, wind chime fun, windbell, feng shui, metal wind chimes, bells, temple, wind chime

Review & Description

Handcrafted, antique copper powder-coated steel Heroic Windbell has a charm that is both contemporary and rustic. The design and bold tones will add visual and aural art to your home or garden. Use it to call the kids in for supper, or as an alternative doorbell. Available in large, 40-inch long and 6.75-inch diameter, and medium, 24.5-inch long and 4-inch diameter. Woodstock Chimes are the original, musically-tuned, high-quality windchimes known worldwide for their superior sound. When listening to a Woodstock Chime, you hear a fine musical instrument played by the wind, perfectly hand-tuned using the ancient system of "just intonation" based on natural harmonics. This means the frequencies at which the different tubes vibrate are related to one another by simple whole-number ratios. Tones that are related in this way produce the most beautiful musical intervals. The sonic effect is exceptionally pure and soothing. More than 30 years ago, the first Woodstock Chime was created by founder and owner Garry Kvistad from an aluminum lawn chair he found in a landfill. As a professional musician and instrument designer, he was fascinated by the Scales of Olympos, a 7th century pentatonic scale that can't be played on a modern piano. Garry had the idea to cut and tune the lawn chair tubes to the exact frequency of the ancient scale. The resulting Chimes of Olympos was the first Woodstock Chime and is still one of our bestselling windchimes. Garry and his wife Diane founded Woodstock Percussion, Inc. in 1979 and it remains a family-owned business in New York's Hudson Valley.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR


PART ONE – Motivation

INTRO

Consider this: Your time and how you spend it is basically your life. If your home and castle are not set up—organized—to support you in exploring your passions or recharging from your wild-and-crazy outside life, then you are wasting your life.

Who says the “dining room” space has to be a dining room, if you never formally entertain? Why not make it a library, music room, or model boat-making room, if that speaks to your hobbies more directly?

What if you had a dedicated scrap-booking area? I imagine it tidy, gleaming, and ready for you to drop into in a minute when a spare half hour opens up.

Wouldn’t that refresh, relax, and satisfy your creative urges better than half an hour flopped in front of the TV, or roaming aimlessly around the house being pulled at by dozens of misplaced or useless items?

Be not afraid to look at your rooms with new eyes. They are there to serve you, not live up to some outdated floor plan....

Customer tags: peaceful, new age, meditation, serenity, energy healing, relaxation music, relaxation, feng shui

Review & Description

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese practice of manipulating your surroundings so that the flow of chi energy is optimized, leading to better health and a greater sense of well-being. In addition, a room that benefits from harmonious feng shui is often quite peaceful to reside in. The concept of feng shui applies to the sonic aspects of a room as well as the physical - soft, quiet music can add a dose of tranquility to your surroundings. In the case of FENG SHUI from the "Solitudes" series, that ambience is crafted from a zen-themed atmosphere of Chinese instruments (erhu, guzheng, shakuhachi flute), soft, lush synths and garden-themed nature sounds. Each of the pieces is soft and gentle. "Chi in Balance," the opening track, begins with a few graceful flourishes from the guzheng, followed by the yearning voice of the bowed erhu. Other highlights include "Whispers in the Wind" and "Nurture With Fire."

Review & Description

Immerse yourself in the peaceful patterns of Gregorian chant with this classic-style windchime. Tuned to a medieval scale, it echoes the vocal music of the gothic era sung to accompany meditation in the churches of Europe since the late 8th century. The sound produced by the 8 precision-tuned tubes is soothing, uplifting, and incredibly rich. One of a series of 5 differently sized windchimes tuned to the same scale, the Gregorian Alto Chime harmonizes beautifully with the other Gregorian Chimes. Imagine the sound of all 5 Gregorian Chimes hung outdoors and sounding together with their rich melodies.

Woodstock Chimes are the original, musically-tuned, high-quality windchimes known worldwide for their superior sound. When listening to a Woodstock Chime, you hear a fine musical instrument played by the wind, perfectly hand-tuned using the ancient system of “just intonation” based on natural harmonics.

Review & Description

In folk history and religion, from the Shakers to Zen, simplicity has generally been considered a good thing. Our own motivation may be to leave a smaller carbon footprint, to express a compassionate solidarity with those who have least; or simply to downsize. Whatever our concern, it is likely that the motivation to live a simpler life will spring from within. At heart, simplicity is a focus on what matters. Reducing the clutter in our lives, whether in material objects, use of time or money, or in our religious practices, leads to an increased clarity of vision and a focus; a view of life and its priorities that is in itself simple. Step by step we can move towards a state in which our attitudes and life are all of a piece, integrated and made one. Simplicity is the outward and visible sign of an inward and spiritual grace. With this inspiring book, discover how simplicity can become a way of life.

Review & Description

The first edition, released in 1995, was lauded by seasoned practitioners and beginners alike. And no wonder. While most of the early English-language books on feng shui were dauntingly mystical or relied on complex calculations or culturally specific design practices, Feng Shui Made Easy took a more holistic approach, clearly explaining the fundamentals while guiding readers on an inner journey of understanding.

Thoughtfully written and beautifully illustrated, the book is structured around an “architecture of consciousness” that is really the inner landscape. The book explores each “house” of the bagua—the chart representing one’s journey through life; relationships with parents, loved ones, and community; creativity; spirituality; and connectedness to the source of life—and the symbolism of the corresponding I Ching trigram. Feng Shui Made Easy helps readers discover the nature of these connections, as well as learn what obstructions must be removed to change fixed patterns of behavior and restore balance, harmony, and inner peace—a process that, when combined with external adjustments, results in increased success and lasting change in all areas of life.

This revised edition expands on the author’s intuitive approach with new sections on health, children’s environments, and ecological concerns and sustainable practices. The author also corrects misconceptions about feng shui and uses fascinating case studies to share valuable insights he gained from interactions with his clients and readers.

Review & Description

As the time nears for the people of the planet to take refuge in the protected place known as Heaven's Jewel, the exact location of the mysterious island is as yet unknown. In order to buy time, the four grandchildren of the original travelers search for the Eternity Stone, the only object capable of stopping time worldwide. However, before the search for the stone can even begin, the four are called upon to tackle a set of challenges on Elmara Lodés in which they must survive encounters with phantasms, gooleegungs, and other foul creatures. Amidst the many twists and turns of their journey, the new travelers form unusual alliances and make difficult decisions that actually end up changing the events of the past for their ancestors. Once the stone is found, they must piece together an unusual puzzle in order to finally locate the safe haven for mankind.
