A sensitive explanation of the body's changes and how Jewish tradition views related matters, such as modesty.

Most of us want to find some reason for being alive. Becoming You considers what would happen if we went to God for the answer. What it would mean if God was the someone who had created us, that he did so with a purpose, and that we could find out what that purpose was from him.Part book, part workbook, the author shares her experiences of seeking God to find out who she was made to be and what her life is for.Like a makeover, it opens with the 'before', as the reader considers the way that they see themselves and ends with the 'after' as they look at the real them - the woman they are becoming.Ideal for any woman searching for the meaning of life, Becoming You looks at the ways in which seeking God can help you to discover the real you, the person you were made to be.

Since early childhood, communing with light beings and then working as a registered nurse for more than four decades, author Kathi Pickett has learned much about how the universe operates with the innate wisdom in your body to heal, to transform, and to manifest your desires. In On Becoming You, Pickett uses experiences from her personal journey to teach you the processes to gain personal power and a deeper understanding of how it all fits together with the energy and mystical laws to heal, manifest, and transform your life. It discusses: the mechanics of the energy system and the tools to foster health and vibrancy; how to heal through processes and tools that awaken you to your true nature; and how to invoke the nature of the highly structured, impersonal universe to create synchronicities, magic, and miracles. On Becoming You invites you to find rhythm and enjoy the life you were meant to live. Through stories, it unravels mysteries in a clear language to provide new insights and knowledge that can be woven into your being. Pickett inspires you to embrace new beginnings, to release inevitable endings, and to ignite a transformation on becoming you.

This groundbreaking volume, written entirely by women, examines the vastly misunderstood and multilayered world of the veil. Veiling— of women, of men, and of sacred places and objects—has existed in countless cultures and religions from time immemorial. Today, veiling is a globally polarizing issue, a locus for the struggle between Islam and the West and between contemporary and traditional interpretations of Islam. But veiling was a practice long before Islam and still extends far beyond the Middle East. This book explores and examines the cultures, politics, and histories of veiling. Twenty-one gifted writers and scholars, representing a wide range of societies, religions, ages, locations, races, and accomplishments, here elucidate, challenge, and/or praise the practice. Expertly organized and introduced by Jennifer Heath, who also writes on male veiling, the essays are arranged in three parts: the veil as an expression of the sacred; the veil as it relates to the emotional and the sensual; and the veil in its sociopolitical aspects. This unique, dynamic, and insightful volume is illustrated throughout. It brings together a multiplicity of thought and experience, much of it personal, to make readily accessible a difficult and controversial subject.

If one is looking for answers to the meaning of life and how to make a happier, richer existence (e.g., relationships, finances, health), then Nevilles teaching from personal experience, testimonies from students, and his amazing visions paralleling and explaining the mysteries of the Old and New Testament will answer those questions. Learn his techniques, unleash your power to create, believe in your imaginary acts, and no power in this world can stop the desired results from appearing in your world.

These 1963 lectures also begin a nine-year odyssey of discovering the deepest meanings of six visions of the end that had unfolded in Neville (19591963). The visions are the signs that this long journey as limited man; the terrible opacity and contraction is over, that the purpose of human life has been completed; man has endured and overcome six thousand years of amnesia plus the fires of experience and has emerged victorious. Hes been transformed by his inner being (I Am or God) back into the divinity he truly is and always was.
