	Deepak Chopra
Peace is the Way Click book cover above to purchase from Amazon.com	Title: Peace is the Way Author: Deepak Chopra Description: The title of this book comes from Ghandi "There is no way to peace. Peace is the way". Chopra opens the book by stating, "Today is a good day for war to come to an end." He discusses the reasons for war then explains how justifications of war are based on illusions. Chopra offers a seven-point plan for each of us to follow to make peace the way, noting that peace must begin within each of us. Who picked it? Bonnie Why? Deepak Chopra has committed himself to peace. I appreciate the way he applies concepts from his previous work to the issue of world peace. His seven point plan makes sense.

	Wayne Dyer
The Power of Intention Click book cover above to purchase from Amazon.com	Title: The Power of Intention Author: Wayne Dyer Description: This book explores intention, not as something you do, but as an energy you're a part of. Wayne Dyer identifies 7 attributes of the all-creating universal mind of intention as creative, kind, loving, beautiful, expanding, endlessly abundant, and receptive. He explains the importance of emulating this source of creativity, and explores specific ways to apply the co-creating principles in daily life. The book closes with an exhilarating vision of a world in harmony with the universal mind of intention. Who picked it? Karen and Bonnie Why? The power of high intention is a foundation concept for us, so we are delighted Wayne Dyer wrote this book. If you don't know about the Power of Intention, this book will help you understand and use it. If you already know about Intention, this book will deepen your understanding.

	Caroline Myss
Invisible Acts of Power Click book cover above to purchase from Amazon.com	Title: Invisible Acts of Power: Personal Choices that Create Miracles Author: Caroline Myss Description: We become channels for divine grace and miracles through kind, compassionate, generous actions or, as Carolyn Myss calls them, invisible acts of power. When we act compassionately, without expectation of credit or reward, God works through us. As we move from visible to invisible acts like prayer and healing, we undergo a profound journey of personal empowerment. Seven stages of compassion and generosity show that the choice to act in service to others is a biological and a spiritual necessity. Who picked it? Karen and Bonnie Why? The stories are inspiring and the message is empowering. It is intriguing to see how Carolyn Myss links different types of acts of kindness with the seven energy centres (chakras).

Who picked it? Karen Why? Jane Roberts is one of our favorites.
