In the second volume, Milne details the anatomy, physiology, energetics, and techniques that are the essential core of visionary craniosacral work. His particular genius lies in his ability to weave a delicate tapestry of narrative, poetry, and scientific fact into a fascinating and insightful exposition of the visionary healing arts.

Acupressure for the Soul: How to Awaken Biological Spirituality and the Gifts of Emotions, offers a revolutionary view of the emotions inspired by Seth's comment, “Any strong emotion carries within it far more energy than, say, that required to send a rocket to the moon … Emotions send thoughts from this interior reality through the barrier between nonphysical and physical into the †̃objective' world — no small feat, and one that is constantly repeated.†— Seth, session 625, The Nature of Personal Reality Emotions, instead of something to manage or get rid of, are portrayed as magnificent sources of power to fulfill one's innately †̃good' purpose for being on Mother Earth at this time. The ancient teachings of Oriental Medicine, combined with the author's knowledge and personal Shamanic-like experiences provide the reader with a unique formula of how to experience BIOLOGICAL SPIRITUALITY and utilize THE GIFTS OF THE EMOTIONS.

Richard L. Morgan has brought into dialogue his years of pastoral ministry with the sick and his appreciation of scripture as a valuable resource. His meditations bring both challenge (e.g. Escaping into Sickness) as well as comfort (This Too Shall Pass). They are daily thoughts for the sick and the caregiver, mutually engaged in a time of deep significance. - Frank S. Moyer Editor, Chaplaincy Today Morgan arrives at an understanding that while a catastrophic illness can take control of one's life emotionally, physically and spiritually, it can also point to divine presence and healing. This is a wise and excellent devotional for anyone involved in the land of sickness, be it as the afflicted or as the caregiver. - Publishers Weekly Richard L. Morgan's From Grim to Green Pastures writes of reflections that came to him during his time of illness. This book offers 81 two-page meditations properly sized for those who are being cared for, or those who busily care for them. His excerpts about a spirituality of illness, serve us well. - Martin E. Marty, The Christian Century For the day when I am ill again I keep a mental list of books I would take to the hospital. From Grim to Greener Pastures joins that list. As a witness to illness, Dick Morgan, tells the truth. Whether you reread this book as a pastoral guide through illness or as spiritual preparation for the day you too become ill, it can bring grace to suffering. - Arthur W. Frank, author of At the Will of the Body: Reflections on My Illness

Prayer is the key to tapping into the healing energy of the Divine. Yet for many people, prayer has been reduced to a rote practice that has lost its basic meaning and efficacy. In his long-awaited first book for an ecumenical readership, internationally renowned spiritual healer Ron Roth teaches his unique approach to prayer as energy medicine. The Healing Path of Prayer explains in detail the connection between healing, faith, and prayer. Roth shows you how to find your own path to prayer in a way that connects with God's healing energy. As Roth explains, you can use this energy not only for physical healing but also, perhaps more significantly, for healing emotional and spiritual wounds that may be at the root of physical maladies. The Healing Path of Prayer gives you specific guidance in setting up a daily healing prayer practice. Through a series of simple but effective exercises and rituals, Roth shows you how to celebrate your own sacraments and become a mystic in the course of your everyday life. Each chapter offers a new, higher level of prayer, enabling you to acquire more advanced techniques of focus, intention, and insight. As Roth revitalizes many tired, traditional prayers with his fresh and inspiring reinterpretations from original scripture, he also recounts the dramatic story of when he discovered his healing abilities, as well as true cases of healing in which he has participated. The Healing Path of Prayer is a blueprint for a truly democratic spirituality. Roth's instruction on how to pray and establish a daily practice of meditation will lead readers into a vital path of everyday mysticism and personal power.

Patricia Dailey, psychiatrist and ceramic artist, 08/17/2007 A Spiritual JourneyI think this book is the author's way of sharing his trail through the wilderness of spiritual development. It is really quite wonderful to see that his way has worked for him. I think it took great courage to write it down for all of the rest of us to see. Making connections to the greater world or the inner world seems to lead to the same place - one of inner happiness and contentment. It just depends on your own temperament and disposition as to whether or not the path takes an inward or outward course. Respecting your own inner experience is key to that process.
