God's Answer is Know: Lessons from a Spiritual Life

Are you seeking spiritual empowerment, but don't know where to start?
Then dive into God's Answer Is Know: Lessons From a Spiritual Life by Elizabeth Ann Atkins.
This poignant memoir includes easy instructions for creating a spirit-powered life with meditation, journaling, and healthy eating.
Elizabeth--an award-winning TV host and co-creator of Two Sisters Writing &amp; Publishing--shares her story with poignant vignettes featuring raw honesty about her struggles with food, fat, failure, race, divorce, depression, and even suicidal thoughts.
Her story takes you from her extreme childhood fears of human and supernatural evil... through fantastical spiritual experiences... into peace, passion, and purpose like she never imagined.
Her life unfolds in the context of her parents' controversial marriage during the mid-1960s. Her mother was 19 and African American, and her father was 44 and white, a former Roman Catholic priest. After their union sparked scorn from the Church and their families, Elizabeth's father baptized her as "a Princess of Peace" when racial conflict was erupting in gunfire, death, and destruction in cities across America.
To become that Princess of Peace for the world, Elizabeth lhad to first find peace within herself.
To showcase her quest for peace and how it inspires her personal and professional contributions, Elizabeth offers her life story as an example of how to learn and implement free tools that you can use every day to transform from the inside out--while connecting with divine power within.
Elizabeth shows how meditation, journaling, healthy eating, exercise, and other practices can help you connect with the Divine and experience two-way communication with God, Jesus, angels, ancestors, and other helping spirits and information.
This book will show you how to do certain things every day to awaken power within yourself to find inner peace, enjoy better health, receive more money, attract amazing relationships, find your passion and purpose, and "know" that this power is infinite and always accessible.
Elizabeth teaches you in a way that's simple and user-friendly. This book includes Ascend: 8 Steps to an Infinite You--a Spirituality 101 if you've never meditated--or if you've tried and failed--or if you've never heard of a chakra, or don't know that what you eat and drink can either deepen or dull your intuitive powers.
This book is for you if you're "spiritual, not religious." The messages have universal application for everyone, as expressed by Mahatma Gandhi: "I am a Muslim and a Hindu and a Christian and a Jew and so are all of you."
This book is about cultivating unconditional love and peace within yourself, so that you can "Be the change that you wish to see in the world," as Gandhi said.
This book can help you be that change by connecting with the infinite power of God that's already inside you. Your express pass through this gateway is meditation to tap into the spiritual energy field that's within us and around us.
Just as you trust your cell phone's invisible wi-fi to connect you with information and people everywhere, you can use your spirit power to access information, guidance, and insights that elevate your "believing" to a new level: Knowing.

Self-Help

Journal Writing

A terrorist plot using the obesity epidemic as a weapon of mass destruction to kill Americans.
The terrorists use America's passion for food--and oblivion to the dangers of fat--to unleash an enemy within. They're on a quest to dominate the United States and the world.
Joining forces to stop this evil plot are a journalist known as G.I. Jane, a hunky Special Ops soldier, and a radical surgeon, Dr. Michael Wise.
Set just a few years into the future when obesity and diabetes are so prevalent that people can get dialysis on buses or at vacation resorts. An anti-healthy-eating backlash has created popular restaurants that feature an entire menu of chocolate, ice cream, and other indulgences. This backlash has also spawned an obesogenic culture of eating that includes massive portions, mega fried food fests, and a general disdain for healthy food.
Meanwhile, Dr. Wise is on a mission to stop America's self-inflicted, slow death by obesity. He's asking Congress to pass his aggressive American Obesity Eradication Act, which includes appointing an Obesity Czar and imposing strict regulations such as a junk food tax, bans on fast food advertising to children, and required weigh-ins and nutrition education. Billionaire business leaders oppose it, and the Act is defeated.
That propels Dr. Wise to lead a guerilla war on obesity. Headquartered in a Detroit warehouse that utilizes the salt mines and military-grade technology to evade detection, the underground LifeQuest Movement is supported by tech billionaires, the mafia, West Coast Yogis for Peace, a rural Kentucky group, and the Food Fight Posse from inner-city Detroit.
Meanwhile, the terrorists have infiltrated the highest levels of government and obtained FDA approval of a "flavor enhancer" marketed as a fat blocker, but the drug was actually created in the terrorists laboratories. It's called OC-8, or Obesity Catalyst times Infinity, and it actually accelerates diabetes and causes cardiac arrest.
Journalist Jeri Brewster, whose father is an Army General and whose mother is a health-advocating author, joins forces with the Special Ops soldier, Calvin "Bullet" Alvarez, in a race against time to tell the President that this evil plot involving deadly bioterrorism is killing Americans.
But the terrorists have infiltrated the highest levels of government and the food industry. As a result, the President's chief advisor--along with many government and business leaders--are colluding with the terrorists. In fact, the terrorists have groomed the lead presidential candidate from birth to infiltrate America's highest office and serve as the lynchpin for their quest for global dominance.
This fast-paced story has many twists and turns that explore the insidious nature of the obesity epidemic. It goes into the hearts and homes of two families, as the parents, children, and teens grapple with their addictions to junk foods and overeating, as well as their guilt, and anguished efforts to transform their thinking, eating, and health status in relation to food.
And what if fast food companies took over public school cafeterias, offering not only a plethora of unhealthy fare for children's breakfasts and lunches, but also opening homework lounges and weekend community centers that welcome families to spend a lot of time there, and get hooked on the fattening food? Supporters love it; critics protest this infringement and monopoly on the minds and stomachs of schoolchildren. 
Will the terrorists succeed?
