30 Days To A More Spiritual Life

These days it seems that more and more people seek a satisfaction in their lives that goes beyond having a successful career, a comfortable lifestyle, and access to the latest high-tech gadgets and conveniences. For the answers they can't find anywhere else, they look to the spiritual world. But most have never been touched by an angel, and few have the patience for sweat lodges, the stamina to climb the Himalayas, or the fashion sense to wear crystals. It's one thing to draw inspiration from the books in the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, but quite another to become a spiritual person through one's own deeds. For these interested yet wary people comes the perfectly accessible program of 30 Days to a More Spiritual Life. This simple guidebook is designed to help readers find personal, comprehensible ways to tap into their spirituality in every aspect of daily life. Growing closer to God (or whatever Higher Power) means communicating not only through prayer and meditation but also through understanding and appreciating one's self and one's world. 30 Days to a More Spiritual Life guides readers toward creating holy moments in the day and discovering their spiritual sides in interactions with others, in conducting business, and even in expressing love. Based on Shana Aborn's very popular article on the same subject for Ladies' Home Journal, 30 Days will incorporate personal anecdotes from the men and women who have benefited from the 30 Day program. This plan will have people of all faiths, backgrounds, and experiences on the road to serenity, greater well-being, and renewed sense of purpose right from the first page.

30 Days to a More Powerful Vocabulary quickly became a bestseller in its category back in 2015. Now, in this updated and revised edition—which now contains the 700 most important words you need to master--you'll quickly learn why this title has been such a positive impact in the personal and professional lives of tens of thousands in the English-speaking world. As Dan Strutzel asserts in Chapter 1, numerous studies show that those people with large vocabularies are smarter, wealthier and happier than the average person—and substantially so. And here’s the best news of all, a large vocabulary is not tied to your social status, your genes or even your education level. It is a skill that can be learned—and it takes only 30 days. And since the original book was written, as technology has advanced further---from the smartphone to Artificial Intelligence, some people have speculated that the need for a vast vocabulary will reduce in importance. But, according to Dan Strutzel, nothing could be further from the truth. He argues in the new edition that, due to technology's ability to "flatten" the distinction between individuals, the art of personal communication via a rich vocabulary will be one of the ways to truly distinguish yourself from the masses. The new edition contains the original, most impactful 500 words which cover many topics from persuading others, relationships, financial issues, science and technology, and more words that ensure you will be a great conversationalist and rise fast in your chosen profession. And, best of all, you'll be provided with an additional 200 words which, according to research, have become particularly important in the last 8 years, particularly since the worldwide pandemic. Those words will cover topics like the new world of virtual work, health topics, Artificial Intelligence, and much more! Research shows that learning new words has an exponential effect on the size of your vocabulary---since learning one word, naturally produces an association between two to three more words. In short, after listening to and applying the system in this 30-day program, you will not only have a bigger vocabulary—you will have a brighter future!

The section on Spiritual Resiliency and Neuroplasticity is so powerful every Christian should read it! Guide to the 30 Day Program Resilience, Neuroplasticity and the Christian Spiritual Life Instructions for using the Prayer Journal If you want greater peace, serenity and joy in your life, then this 30 Day program is for you! The value of a prayer journal is that it can help you become more alert to how God is working in your life. When you write, you evoke your souls to 'speak' what is there so that it comes forth and you can see what God sees. When you use the journal to note what inspires you, disturbs you, to lay out your needs and desires, your struggles and joys, then you can look at them in a new way – more and more as co-observers with God, on the progress of your spiritual life. From the science of neuroplasticity, we now understand that when you write your reflections, they become embedded in a different part of your brain where you will remember them longer. And then as you go back and reflect on what you wrote, it becomes more a part of you as you recall them time and again. In fact, you rewire your brain doing that! To that end, it is a valuable exercise to review the prayer journal every few weeks or months and summarize your insights. You will often note a pattern to how God is working in your life. Sufficient space has been left for your reflections on each chapter from Volume Two and each Day of the book, then for each of the questions. Note that if you go back to a chapter or question later, it is helpful to add the date, time and place where you are when you add the note. That will give you a sense of the progression of your insights. "That Flame in Your Heart? Turn it Into a Blowtorch!" is a 30 day journey of the heart that will reignite the spiritual life of the reader, turning whatever is there now into a blowtorch. It will introduce the reader to a deeper, more intimate dialogue with the Person of Jesus Christ beyond what they have previously known. The fruit of that journey is peace, serenity and joy in every circumstance of your life no matter what you are going through. He does not care who or what you are, saint or sinner, He wants a more intimate relationship with you and only cares that you get started right now, not later. Big promise? Yes, but as you will come to realize, the unique style of the book will bring you immediately into a dialogue with Jesus who always exceeds your expectations! Its format lends itself to spiritual/inspirational reading or as a small group program in your church.
