A study of the use of group prayer was been shown to reduce the crime rate in Washington DC by 25%, Here I report on how the use of a new process can effect such group healing quickly and easily without such a sustained and energy intensive approach.

Let us grasp from the outset that success as understood in the usual secular sense of the word is not promised in the kingdom of God. God never promised anybody a star-studded career. He never promised achievement in the worldly understanding of the word. In fact, He seem to promise the exact opposite.

when life isn’t fair, disappoints arise and things don’t seem to make any sense remember Jesus is our comforter

Myths are dramatizations of our inner journeys. While on the hero's path, we will confront good and evil, right and wrong, wonderments and dangers--and most of all, ourselves.

Is guilt necessary? Is it useful? Is it even a normal human emotion? Many feel this ugly emotion to be an unwelcome intruder which undermines their self worth and self esteem. Do you want to begin to release it forever thereby reclaiming your rightful experience as a Divine Being in your own physical body?

When my dad was nearing the end of his life he began searching his heart to see if there was anything left undone - some unconfessed sin, a misdeed, anything at all he needed to make right before he faced God. He constantly prayed that the Holy Spirit would bring to his remembrance anything he needed to make right with his fellowman. It was during this time that he came across a rusty old garden tiller at the edge of his garden. It belonged to a farmer down the road who had sold it to Dad, but, when it didn't work, the farmer returned his money to him and told Dad just to bring it back any time.

This article is an introduction to the meaning and message of the Gospel of Matthew.

We human beings are used to this concept of giving a form and naming everything that we come across in our life. How did God get his name?

What's the difference? How are we supposed to tell the difference between the real healers and those who are selling snake oil? It's a big seller to claim that your work is divinely inspired. Even...

Why is it that we want to control our lives so much? Why can’t we just turn out lives over to the Infinite Perfection that is God? The sun came up today, didn’t it? If God can make the sun come up then He can also make my life magical. I must allow and surrender.

Why are we really here? Do we have a destination to fulfill or is our existence just by chance? The answer is yes, we have a definite purpose on this earth. Do you know what yours is?

If you haven’t already done so, please start keeping a journal today. It is one of the most effective ways to hear your own voice. You should not share the information in your journal with anyone. These are your private and innermost sacred thoughts.

For the past several years I have struggled with getting (and staying) fit. Ok I admit it, the struggle has been longer than just a few years. As a kid, instead of playing nicely with the girls, I fought with the neighborhood boys. I attempted to join their fun and received new scars weekly in bloody games of soccer. I was always the last one picked to play on the kickball team and, as the catcher of my 5th grade softball team, I pummeled the pitcher in the head with a fast ball. Uncoordinated in team sports, I succeeded only at baton twirling which was fun but I barely broke a sweat. After failures in group sports I thought I'd try running so, a few years ago I attempted to train for a half marathon. I ended up limping home in tears and thought I’d never exercise again. (I couldn't even MOVE after that, much less exercise!)

Quite simply, stress is how the mind perceives a situation and how our body then responds to a difficult challenge, obstacle or demand. Stress happens when we believe we do not have the time, experience, or resources to deal with a situation. The next time you are feeling stressed, take a moment and notice your body. Don't attempt to fix anything, just become aware. How exactly are you doing the experience of stress?

While it may be true that someone under stress may have a tendency to seek a good stiff drink; it is just as true that the chronic consumption of alcohol can cause stress.

Do you find your shoulders hunching up by themselves? Can’t sleep peacefully? Time for a trip to the Athens spas.

If ever you find yourself in a confrontation make sure that you separate your true self from any outside influence. For instance if one were to experience a disagreement with a co-worker, start your own healing and ultimately the healing of the relationship by unrelentingly remaining connected with your breath or a mantra; whatever it is it must be powerful and meaningful to you and must shake you to the awareness that you are not your thoughts and you are not the thoughts of the other party. Only from this state of awareness can a sufficient amount of separation occur to allow for a new compassionate viewpoint.

Anxiety is the feeling that is generated when we are placed in situations of stress or when we experience physical or emotional trauma. The sweating of palms before an exam or the heart palpitations before a big interview, or even while making a marriage proposal, that butterflies-in-the-stomach are all physical manifestations of anxiety.

Do you get the Sunday blues, thinking about the weekend being over?
