Power vs. ForceIf you haven't read this book, then you need to. Seriously. Just buy it and read it. This book is the result of over 20 years of research and is a piece that you will always remember reading because the information contained within it is so profound. By reading it you will gain a powerful understanding of higher levels of consciousness as well as your participatory roll in collective consciousness. Very profound stuff here.

The Power of IntentionThis is easily one of my favorite books of all time. Dr. Wayne Dyer beautifully explains intention as something that we can use to co-create our lives the way we want them to be. The reason he uses the word "co-create" and not "create", is because with this powerful model of intent, we tap into a universal force of unlimited supply that will work in conjunction with us in helping us to manifest the people, places, things and events which we desire. This force in the universe is the source of all things. It is source energy. Wayne Dyer does a wonderful job of explaining the nature of this source and how we can come to "be in rapport" with it. I also particularly enjoy the audio book version of this piece which can be found on audible.com.

A New EarthThis is a beautifully written book. The words contained within will resonate with striking clarity. Spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle explains how we can get a much needed break from the endless mind-chatter that we all experience and enjoy the power of living in the moment. Learn to step beyond the ego and into true consciousness in this powerful piece. I like taking this book with me to a quite and serene place and just allowing the text to consume me. Reading this is a truly wonderful experience. And, oh yeah, it's an Oprah Book Club pick!.... Now what could be better?

The Divine Matrix

Between 1993 and 2000, a series of groundbreaking experiments revealed dramatic evidence of a web of energy that connects everything in our lives and our world—the Divine Matrix. From the healing of our bodies, to the success of our careers, relationships, and the peace between nations, this new evidence demonstrates that we each hold the power to speak directly to the force that links all of creation. What would it mean to discover that the power to create joy, to heal suffering, and bring peace to nations lives inside of you? How differently would you live if you knew how to use this power each day of your life? Join Gregg Braden on this extraordinary journey bridging science, spirituality and miracles through the language of The Divine Matrix.

The Spontaneous Healing of Belief Another amazing work from Gregg Braden.  This guy really knows how to make what would otherwise be esoteric scientific information very accessible and highly interesting to the reader.  He does such a wonderful job of giving the new cutting-edge science real and practical meaning.  If you liked The Divine Matrix, you will love this book.  Your beliefs play a very powerful roll in your life, and mastering them can change everything.  The title is intriguing, and the content is even more so.  Don't miss this one.    

The Power of Now

Another beautifully written book by Eckhart Tolle.  This is a transformative peace that is likely to impact you in a powerful way.  Eckhart is a highly enlightened person and has chosen to share his knowledge with the world.  When I was originally drawn to this book I thought that it was going to be more of a motivational type of work with an emphasis on getting things done.  That is not at all what this piece is about.  This book will teach you how to maintain a state of conscious awareness and presence in everything you do.  We tend to allow our minds to spend a lot of time in the past and in the future while neglecting the only time we ever truly have: the present.  Learn to rise above and start truly enjoying life in the present.  

Getting Things Done

A modern classic in personal development, this book will teach you practical methods for getting more done in less time. Void of any unrealistic exercises that you will never actually complete, this book offers only the most practical and applicable of advice. It's principles are so easy to apply that you will find yourself doing so naturally once you understand the techniques. If you are a goal setter and accomplisher, and I know you are if you're reading this, then you need to get this book.

Emotional IntelligenceIt is obvious that having a high IQ is no guarantee of success or happiness. This book explains how something called "Emotional Intelligence" is even more important in life than what would traditionally be categorized as intelligence. Highly developed emotional intelligence will allow you to get what you want in life in a way that is calm, relaxed, and confident. You will learn to effectively control your emotions as well as to foster an intelligence that is most beneficial. This is a book contains a message that you will always remember and refer back to. Truly profound stuff here. 

The Intention ExperimentThe book you hold in your hands is revolutionary, a groundbreaking exploration of the science of intention. Drawing on the findings of leading scientists from around the world, The Intention Experiment demonstrates that thought is a thing that affects other things. It is also the first book to invite you, the reader, to take an active part in its original research.  Using cutting-edge research conducted at Princeton, MIT, Stanford, and many other prestigious universities and laboratories, The Intention Experiment reveals that the universe is connected by a vast quantum energy field. Thought generates its own palpable energy, which you can use to improve your life and, when harnessed together with an interconnected group, to change the world.
