A self study course in spiritual psychotherapy comprised of a 600 + page text, 365 day workbook & a manual for teachers.
Many spiritual teachers have specialized on the Course & many more reference it in context of spiritual principle & practice. I needed a lot of help understanding this book & read many of them. But in the end whether it was Marianne Williamson, Ken Wapnick, Gary Renard or Wayne Dyer, this is the book that really formed my spiritual spine.- MAL

A brilliant work correlating the 7 chakras in the human energy system to the 7 Christian Sacraments & the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. I refer to this correlation often in my own personal interior healing work.
But its beginning has Myss telling her own story of how she came to her path & to healing as a medical intuitive, quite clearly not what she was expecting. A MUST for healers & those wanting a deeper route of their own healing. - MAL

My introduction to The Teachings of Abraham. The 1st half of the book is text, explaining Abraham, their teachings & mostly aboutThe Law of Attraction & how it works. The 2nd half contains numerous exercises / games to help one find their alignment with Source.
This is where I learned about The Emotional Guidance Scale with all the many emotions along the spectrum by number. Very helpful in helping me get an idea of where my vibration is, then how to gradually step it up to a better feeling place of increased alignment with Source.- MAL

The Upstream / Downstream metaphor has stuck with me all of these years & helps me remember when I am moving away from or toward what I want to be. do & have. Understanding ,ore about emotional guidance really was a gamechanger. It's somewhat differently defined here than you would intuition.
But Abraham's broader nonphysical perpective on emotion helped me understand & utilize my emotions as the most immediate aspect of guidance. - MAL

Caroline Myss is a genius teacher in my opinion. I've been studying what she teaches for decades.

This was the first "New Age/ Metaphysical" book I read when I was a senior in High School.

The first few chapters alone are a brilliant introduction to the essential premises of metaphysics & very worth the read. - MAL

This book is where I found out what Grace is really all about.
As a Witch, the idea of the 7 Deadly Sins & the 7 Holy Virtues didn't thrill me.
Sin isn't necessarily in the Witch's viocabulary. But I can't seem to get enough of Carolione Myss' work, so I went for it.
She redifined the 7 Deadlys as 'shadow passions' & the virtues as 'graces.'
Not only did that help, it shifted the way I saw why we do what we do when 'possessed' by a shadow, but the shadow was always within, not a paranormal experience. No, quite the contrary, humanity gets possesed by its shadow on a constant basis individually & collectively. The Graces then, are the powers of the soul that cancel out shadow bit by bit, like a bright light eradicates shadows, because shadows aren't a real thing, they are an absence of light. This, in tandem with her audiobook Channeling Grace, are a perfect launch into the subject for those called. - MAL

I tried to make it through A Course in Miracles many times. I would get about 3/4 of the way through the workbook, then drop it for a year or so. When Dissapearance was dropped on me, I was struggling & asked for a miracle.
The Course isn't an easy read. Gary Renard's work opened it up for me. If the Chrsitian language used in very radically different ways doesn't throw you, Dissapearance will really help you see the Course in a clear, simpler, even practical light. - MAL

The Yoga Sutras have been translated a great deal. Sanskrit is a dead, but very deep, langage with one word or even syllable having many meanings. I found MSI's intrepretation, if not that of the Ishayas themselves to be truly clarifying.
Not that it is an easy read, but it does simplify many approaches to enlightenment & Yoga itself.
I don't think you have to have studied with the Ishaya monks & teachers to read & learn from Enlightenment.
But the book gave me a deeper understandiung of meditation, the divine & even sanskrit itself. - MAL

There's been a lot written & spoken about holistic healing for many decades now. I've always felt Shakti Gawain has a very clear & understandable approach here. It's not all about organic food & massage, that may indeed address the physical aspect of healing, but what about the other 3 levels: emotional, mental & spiritual?
Gawain goes chapter by chapter integrating all four while offering insights, exercises & her own story as you go.
Really good for people new to the healing path. - MAL

Though I read this & its companion book, "Gods in Everyman" from cover to cover in my 20's, I still refer to it as a reference when I realize the Gods are at work in me. Archetypal dynamics fascinate me & I read Bolen decades before I even knew who Caroline Myss was, let alone her book "Sacred Contracts" reviewed below.
Bolen's layout of description of each Goddess in layers/circles. The Myth, The Archetype & the person with each archetype are tumblers in a lock for me. I've since been able to sense what God/Goddess patterns are at work in others & if I'm lucky, catch which of my own are at work in me. - MAL

Byron Katie's "the Work" is worth a good look. Her approach is simple, but what it does is practical & works, if you work it. Questioning our thoughts and beliefs is not a new idea. But the process, with practice does help a lot & in some cases brings instant healing of the mind & emotions. - MAL

I am tempted to just write 'no words' because Sacred Contracts is so good, so valuable & a resource I still return to.
"Know thyself" right? This is deeper. This work covers what motivates on a soul level.
What drives us to do the things we do both in light & shadow?
For what purposes did we incarnate? What are soul agreements I made before I was born? Just learning about, understanding & working with the 4 Survival Family archetypes is enough to turn any life around toward health and clarity.
The Audiobook isn't a book, it's a lecture on the subject. She doesn't read her written work into microphones & I adore that about her. She's a teacher of the highest caliber.

Yet another brilliant update of The Teachings of Abraham via the Hicks. The vortex is used as a metaphor for 'vibraional escrow' the nonphysical space where all things reside before physical manifestation.
The whole book is about how to get in there & be a vibrational match to what you want.

But it lays the framework looking at many false premises that truly do effect our ability to be, do & have what we want to be, do & have. Thankfully Abraham speaks to how to undo what was never true & align with what always is.
