Discovering Your God Self... 
The Incredible Secrets of Your Spiritual Nature Revealed\nSpirituality is often misunderstood. We have become accustomed to looking outside of ourselves for answers, distracted by the many wonderful options our world presents. However, a true spiritual awakening is an inward journey of self-discovery, understanding, and connection to our inner spiritual essence.\nDiscovering Your God Self is a roadmap for this journey. It shows the way, explaining our collective spiritual nature in detail and offers a method to connect with this inner power.\nIt’s human nature to want happiness, peace, and even success; to feel loved, fulfilled, worthy, and safe. Many find these goals difficult or even impossible to achieve and maintain. Spirituality is at the core of all these things.\nLiving our dreams and manifesting our desires has become a chore for many, rather than the amazing journey it could be. We hope and search for a better way. But, like a hamster running on a wheel, this search can be endless.\nKnowing what to look for and, more importantly, where to look, is the answer.\nHere's Some of What You'll Discover in This Instructive and Enlightening Book: The fundamentals of spirituality and our spiritual nature The five key elements within and how to productively use them to create your best life The Duality within and how to overcome hidden factors that control your life A path to deepened awareness, inner connection, and peace How to actively access your inner guidance — your intuition Much more... 
We all have enormous power within. Few truly have a relationship with that power and know how to actively enlist its help. Understanding this dynamic force and developing the ability to actively and consciously create your connection to it is the point of spirituality, and is the way to higher levels of consciousness.\nYet, many are distracted by the outer world, looking there for validation, happiness, and peace. They seek joy outside of themselves, not realizing that it’s not out there. It's within.\nHigher Consciousness is the result of deepened awareness and a connection to our spiritual essence. This is the awakened state many seek and is the path to a more fulfilling, joyful, and creative life.\nDiscovering Your God Self offers insights and a self-empowering perspective which, when applied, leads to positive inner changes which then manifest as outer-world experiences.\nSpirituality is about inclusion, not exclusion, and connecting to and understanding your true nature. It opens the door to real love and creativity. Consciously create the life and experiences you desire.\nSpiritual knowledge has faded over the centuries, giving way to more limiting views of ourselves and the world. Discovering Your God Self presents a non-religious explanation, and offers a defined path to expanded awareness, higher consciousness, and a happier, love-filled life.

Life keeps knocking 12-year-old Alan down. Can he find the courage to get back up?
Orphaned at a young age, all Alan Michaels wants is a place to belong. But the independent, street–smart kid, who lacks self-confidence, has no clue how to deal with disappointment – or a formidable bully who won’t back down. And New York City is a tough town to grow up in if you are a kid who doesn’t have much. But when he starts training at Sensei Hideki’s School of Karate, he hopes his life will change forever.
Determined to prove he’s got what it takes to become a true warrior, he pushes his body and mind to the limit. But just when the karate school starts to feel like home, tragedy strikes again. Does Alan have the courage and inner strength to overcome the odds stacked against him?
 “When you get knocked down, you just keep getting back up. …You never give up.” Sensei paused for a moment and spoke louder. “That’s what takes real guts.” He stared at Alan intently. “You know, sometimes failures are your steppingstones to success.”
You Gotta Have Heart is hopefully a new addition to the great coming of age novels in the tradition of S. E. Hinton, Jerry Spinelli, Gary D. Schmidt, J.K. Rowling, Rebecca Stead and E.L. Konigsburg.
