On an unsuspecting Friday night, Liyla lost her son to an accident. Lost and disillusioned, all she wanted was a chance to speak to her son again, tell him she loved him and missed him. But death is the end, isn’t it? In a mind bending journey through the many planes we humans exist in, Liyla’s life changes as she encounters people who help reach across the veil of life and connect her to her son. This event opens a door in her life through which she discovers the meaning of life and beyond. Her studies ranging from contemporary Western sciences to ancient Indian wisdom lead her to understanding what it means to live, and our purpose on this planet along with a clear realization that the universe is just energy. This book will take you on a journey that answers many questions that have plagued humanity. What exactly is the mind? What is Consciousness? What is destiny? And the biggest one of all-- What happens after our physical forms pass from this life? Liyla looks at these questions with a scientific lens, hoping to bridge the gaps between science and spirituality — for each one of us looks for answers for these same questions within this cosmos. In this book, the spiritual aspects of life are explained with reference to the Panchakosha (five layer) theory of Indian spirituality which is elucidated in the Upanishads and other ancient Indian books. This gives a strong logical basis to understand Consciousness, and life in the physical and subtle planes.

Women are naturally healers. Throughout time, they have performed curative roles as mothers, midwives, caregivers, and wisewomen, but modern medicine has suppressed this important tradition. Ancient women healers knew that the body is more than what is seen: through body, emotions, mind, and spirit, we can connect with the Goddess and actively choose to heal ourselves and others. By relearning and using ancient skills like aura and chakra work, creative visualization, meditation, laying on of hands, psychic healing, and working with crystals and gemstones, women can prevent or transform many dis-eases of the body and spirit before they become matters for modern medicine. In THE WOMEN'S BOOK OF HEALING, Diane Stein, author of the best-selling ESSENTIAL REIKI, demystifies, explains, and teaches these skills in ways that modern women can learn and use. She first introduces basic healing, then applies those skills to healing with crystals and gemstones-a beautiful, effective, and empowering aspect of the ancient woman's healing methods. A comprehensive guide from a knowledgeable healer, THE WOMEN'S BOOK OF HEALING proves that well-being is within a woman's choice and natural abilities, and reaffirms her timeless role as healer of herself and others. • An affirmation of woman's traditional role as healer, speaking to a national trend toward alternative medicine and natural healing methods. • Demystifies, explains, and teaches the healing capabilities of auras, chakras, laying on of hands, crystals, gemstones, and colors. • Thoroughly revised and updated, with a new introduction. • Diane Stein's books have sold more than 600,000 copies.
