The Friend of My Mind by Gil Frank

The Friend of My Mind by Gil Frank

“Written by a man about the woman he loved with all his soul is healing. We NEED more books and works like these.” —Jessica Coates. Victims of Abuse Advocate During the week of mourning Gil opened the blue crate she never agreed to unpack. He discovered her poems of passion and erotic enjoyment with previous lovers. The family was shocked, but the secret consumed him in a tumultuous whirlwind. He hid it until the family left. Then, he let the verses, like Satan bites, scramble his dreams, twist his grief. He did not eat, headaches detained him. By keeping silent about what led her to carnal passion, she obscured how the wounds of their betrayals still impregned her soul and snuck into their relationship. Friend of My Mind is a two-part dialogue between a man and his departed spouse. He writes the letter she wanted to pen—their love story from his perspective. In part two, he recounts his own journey to love — ‘careloving’ face to face with her death, and himself. Across Paris, Jamaica, Jerusalem and America, the story climbs to “Friend of The Mind” as the response beyond distrust, prior toxic relationships, financial inequality, and ge

Choose You First: One Woman’s Journey Through Pain, Resilience and Hard-Won Healing. A Powerful Reminder That Your Story Is Far From Over. by Michelle Bishop

What if choosing yourself first was the most powerful gift you could give to those you love?

As women, it’s almost natural to forget about what we need and put everyone else first. It seems to be part of the mom/daughter/sister package that we’re born with.

But putting yourself last doesn’t do anyone any good. It leaves you tired, drained, and fresh out of creative solutions to everyday problems.

But here’s the thing…

The habit of putting yourself last doesn’t come out of nowhere. How you were raised has an immense impact on how you are as an adult—more than you can imagine.

From self-worth to confidence to your ability to say no and set healthy boundaries. It’s all influenced by those early years.

In Michelle Bishop’s memoir, Choose You First, the author opens her heart to share her deeply personal journey from chaos to self-love. Through candid stories of resilience, she takes you on a path from the struggles of her tumultuous childhood to the healing moments that reshaped her sense of worth.

In this book, she gives you the tools she developed through her most difficult times to help you step further, deeper, and bigger into your life.

Whether you’re seeking hope, healing, or inspiration, Choose You First provides the courage and wisdom to take that step into a future full of love and fulfillment.

As well as learning how to overcome personal trauma, develop inner strength, and choose yourself in a world that often asks you to do the opposite, this book shows you:

The importance of self-love and why it is not selfish to put yourself first.
How to overcome personal trauma and use it as a foundation for growth.
Practical ways to set boundaries with others to protect your well-being.
The value of resilience and how to find inner strength even in the darkest times.
How to recognize and break free from destructive patterns learned in childhood.
Techniques for silencing self-doubt and building genuine self-worth.
Why forgiveness, especially of oneself, is a crucial part of healing.
How to find hope and light within, regardless of past experiences.
It’s time to Choose You First.

The Pink Dress: A Memoir of a Reluctant Beauty Queen by Jane Little Botkin

The Pink Dress: A Memoir of a Reluctant Beauty Queen by Jane Little Botkin

For fans of Little Miss Sunshine and Secrets of Miss America, this memoir from a national award-winning author reveals the reality of being the first Guyrex Girl in the 1970s. Beauty pageant stories have never been this raw, this real.

Growing up in West Texas, Jane Little Botkin didn’t have designs on becoming a beauty queen. But not long after joining a pageant on a whim in college, she became the first protégé of El Paso’s Richard Guy and Rex Holt, known as the “Kings of Beauty”—just as the 1970’s counterculture movement began to take off.

A pink, rose-covered gown—a Guyrex creation—symbolizes the fairy tale life that young women in Jane’s time imagined beauty queens had. Its near destruction exposes reality: the author’s failed relationship with her mother, and her parents’ failed relationship with one another. Weaving these narrative threads together is the Wild West notion that anything is possible, especially do-overs.

The Pink Dress awakens nostalgia for the 1960s and 1970s, the era’s conflicts and growth pains. A common expectation that women went to college to get “MRS” degrees—to find a husband and become a stay-at-home wife and mother—often prevailed. How does one swim upstream against this notion among feminist voices that protest “If You Want Meat, Go to a Butcher!” at beauty pageants, two flamboyant showmen, and a developing awareness of self? Torn between women’s traditional roles and what women could be, Guyrex Girls evolved, as did the author.

Unlocking Ancient Mysteries, Exploring History’s Most Intriguing Legends by M.G. Hawking

About Unlocking Ancient Mysteries, Exploring History’s Most Intriguing Legends by M.G. Hawking:

Explore two of the most profound ancient legends, Shambhala and the Kingdom of Kemet (Egypt), deeply intriguing mysteries that have fascinated and inspired millions since the dawn of civilization. In powerful first-hand accounts, explorer M.G. Hawking takes you into the fabled landscapes and unparalleled knowledge of two lost worlds.
Ancient history is the hazy vestiges of memory; far more of the secrets underlying the mysteries of the past have been lost than preserved. Even the earliest accounts of history were composed long after certain truths had lapsed from human memory, or were considered secrets too powerful—or too sacred—to be revealed. Yet legends inevitably arose in which fragments of those truths were preserved.
Stretching in a vast crescent across Asia, the Himalayan Range protects the most isolated areas of Earth’s landmass; ice peaks towering nearly six miles high shroud remote, lushly forested valleys. For thousands of years the mysterious inner region of this Great Range has inspired countless stories and legends of a hidden sanctuary of great masters. If this hidden realm truly exists, who resides there?
No historical mystery has inspired the depth of fascination as the enigma of Ancient Egypt. Some ten-thousand years ago, as if abruptly descended upon the sands, a small stone-age culture suddenly rose to create the most magnificent civilization of known history. How was this incredible feat achieved? What was the source of the ancient Egyptians’ sophisticated knowledge and technology?
Journey into a legendary realm deep in the Himalayas and far back through the ages to the majestic landscapes of Ancient Egypt to discover knowledge that has long been concealed in legends and sophistry. Entertaining and enlightening, this exploration and anthology is an incomparable read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of our world and greater personal knowledge and power. 2021 Edition, e-reader page count 265 (estimated, actual count varies with the reading device used).

The Masters of Wisdom, A Treasury of Esoteric Knowledge by M.G. Hawking

About The Masters of Wisdom, A Treasury of Esoteric Knowledge by M.G. Hawking:

Explore the most powerful esoteric knowledge of the ages, from its true source. Through the millenniums a body of unparalleled knowledge has accumulated, yet whose most essential elements remain largely unknown to the Western world. In America, fragments of this knowledge have emerged in literature, often referred to as “the secret” or “the law of attraction.” Unfortunately, as many people have been disappointed to discover, attaining the power to manifest whatever you desire to experience in your life cannot truly be achieved through elementary concepts of “positive thinking” or some “secret,” simply because those fragments of knowledge are absent both the essential esoteric elements and the advanced principles of consciousness.
Transcribed directly from the journals and field notes of explorer M.G. Hawking’s sixty-two months in the Himalayan regions of Nepal and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (the Himalayan highlands of Tibet), this book presents narratives from true Himalayan masters and sages, revealing a comprehensive treasury of the greatest esoteric knowledge of the ages, from its legendary original source.
Organized by topics, chapters include: Insights Regarding the Masters, The Ultimate Nature of Reality, The Physical World as Symbols, The Potential of Power and Knowledge, Fundamental Understandings, Advanced Understandings, Utilizing Etheric Energy, Visualization Practice, and Reflections on the Masters’ Teachings.
Author’s Note: “The knowledge and practices presented in this book arise directly from the teachings of highly enlightened individuals. If studied with patience and fully integrated into your core belief system, these teachings can lay the foundation necessary to enable rare abilities. Yet nothing explained in this volume is supernatural or beyond the ability of a properly equipped individual. These abilities are not miracles. Quite the contrary. They do not require any capacities that are not inherent in the human species as a whole, if those capacities are properly recognized and developed.” —M.G. Hawking
This book transports the reader into remote areas of our world to discover what many have found to be the most refined and powerful knowledge possessed by the human race. These accounts reveal the esoteric wisdom and practices of fully enlightened individuals, enabling you to learn directly from dialogues with true masters how to use your own creative power in every aspect of your life—wealth, health, relationships, love, happiness, and in every interaction you have in the world.
An unprecedented, must read book for anyone on a spiritual path or seeking expanded knowledge and personal power. 2023 Edition, e-reader page count 308 (estimated, actual count varies depending on the reading device used).

Mystic Wisdom of the Masters, The Esoteric Knowledge of Great Adepts by M.G. Hawking, Heather Cantrell, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.

About Mystic Wisdom of the Masters, The Esoteric Knowledge of Great Adepts by M.G. Hawking, Heather Cantrell, Jenna Wolfe Ph.D.:

Beginning with the dawn of the ancient Qinghai-Tibet Plateau civilization, throughout Asia there has endured an unwavering belief in the existence of a society of highly enlightened masters living in an isolated valley deep in the vast wilderness of the Great Himalayan Range. Journey into the world of this profound legend through an unprecedented first-hand account to explore knowledge that for millenniums has remained concealed under layers of myth and secrecy.
5-Star Reviews: “Delivers similar information to be found in thousands of pages of ‘A Course in Miracles’ and the ‘Esoteric Healing’ series – in just a few pages. The book may be small, but its weight is immeasurable. Once you accept the findings of quantum particle science, this book makes perfect sense and does not seem so fantastic or unattainable by ordinary folk who are all masters unaware of their own potential.” —ESCT. “Very profound. Will be reading the entire series. This book alone is deeply rooted in the ancient knowledge of the creation of your own personal experience.” —Moon Cat. “Wow, what a truly amazing, and life altering book, full of valuable life lessons. A must read that is meant to be shared. If people read this book and applied it to their lives what a beautiful place the world would be. A magical journey that is truly enlightening. These books are some of the best I’ve read in a long time. Nothing can be compared to them.” —L. Movassaghi “Detailed wisdom of the mystic simplified! A treasure.” —KTC
Transcribed directly from the journals and field notes of explorer M.G. Hawking’s sixty-two months of experiences in a closed region of the Himalayas, this book contains detailed narratives of Hawking’s experiences and discussions with true masters and sages, revealing the profound wisdom, esoteric knowledge, and visualization techniques they revealed.

About Aim for the Uprights: The Intentional Playbook for Success in Faith, Family, and Business:

College football success does not always produce big business victories. Yet placekicker Stu Crum rode a boyhood ambition to the boardrooms of the world’s biggest corporations and private equity firms.
In Aim for the Uprights, Crum shares telling episodes of a life shaped by personal convictions, his burgeoning faith, and his unique partnership with the love of his life, his wife, Mia.
In three sections—“Game On,” “Game Changer,” and “Late Game Score”—the author also reveals his simple yet profound playbook that is appropriate for readers of all backgrounds, both professional and cultural.

“Game Changer” finds Crum fighting the adversity of a crushing heartbreak that tested his faith and physical injuries that haunted his career in the NFL and USFL. After his business acumen grew Down Under, he expanded his leadership reach to Central and South America, where bodyguards and tropical family vacations became an acquired taste. But when Mia was threatened with a terminal illness, love of family took on a luster and depth money can’t buy.
Fortunately, for Crum, life begins at 60 in “Late Game Score,” where he takes a leap from corporate rewards to private equity risks that can, and do, lead to a “life-changing” event. Not the end of his remarkable story.

The Adventures of a Florida Boy by Jim Melvin

The Adventures of a Florida Boy by Jim Melvin

“A joyous glimpse into a childhood we all wish we’d had: fun, carefree, and near the sea.” —JS Hyder

Many of us are in dire need of relief, and sometimes we search for something good-natured, random, and joyous to lift our spirits and put a smile on our faces. This is what The Adventures of a Florida Boy is all about. This short and sweet memoir will make you laugh and feel happy in that stomach-warming way that fond memories tend to inspire.

Jim Melvin’s boyhood was spent in Florida in the 1960s on an island called Coquina Key. His parents’ waterfront home overlooked a large expanse of Tampa Bay. Back then, parts of the island were undeveloped, which left plenty of room for climbing trees, digging forts in the sand, and swimming in shark-infested waters. Some of the things he and his friends did were downright dangerous. But they didn’t care. They were the rulers of their domain. Jim wouldn’t trade his childhood for anything.

In this lovely book, readers will discover moments that will awaken their own childhood memories, regardless of where and when they grew up.

The Unknown Kingdom, Revelations of Shambhala, The Himalayan Journals of M.G. Hawking

About The Unknown Kingdom, Revelations of Shambhala, The Himalayan Journals of M.G. Hawking:

Discover the Unknown Kingdom. You are invited to take an unprecedented journey into a fabled world to explore ancient knowledge virtually unknown to the modern world. Sweeping in an immense arc across South Asia is the Great Himalayan Range, an uninterrupted 1,500 mile crescent of mountains with over 110 peaks rising to elevations of 25,000 feet or more. Extending from Kashmir’s 26,600 foot Naga Parbat through Tibet’s 25,445 foot Namcha Barwa, the vast frozen fortress of the Himalaya cradles the most isolated areas of Earth’s landmass. Yawning gorges as deep as 16,000 feet and ice peaks towering over five miles high shelter remote, lushly forested valleys.
For thousands of years, the largely inaccessible inner portion of this wilderness has been known in esoteric literature as the Great White Island, and has inspired countless stories and legends that it conceals a kingdom of great masters possessed of transcendent wisdom and power.
Years ago, on an extended trek into the remote inner range of the Himalaya, explorer M.G. Hawking chanced on a small valley deep in the wilderness. Surrounded by towering ice peaks, he encountered a beautiful village, a mysterious realm referred to by its residents as Siddhalaya. Siddha, in Sanskrit, denotes a high adept or master; alaya means the abode of—for Siddhalaya is said to be the ‘Kingdom of the Masters.’
Hawking’s discovery marked the beginning of a series of extraordinary encounters and experiences. In that isolated community he had the privilege of meeting a number of remarkable men and women—introduced to him as ‘masters’ and ‘sages’—possessed of wisdom, knowledge and power virtually unknown in the Western world.
Transcribed directly from the journals and field notes Hawking recorded of his encounters with these sages, this book contains detailed narratives of his experiences and conversations, providing detailed, first-hand accounts of their esoteric knowledge and power. As entertaining as it is enlightening, this is an incomparable read for anyone on a spiritual path or seeking expanded knowledge and personal power. 2023 Edition Kindle Unlimited book, e-reader page count 320.

Ancient Egypt, Secrets from the Manuscript of Master Kalika-Khenmetaten, circa 1370 B.C., by M.G. Hawking

About Ancient Egypt, Secrets from the Manuscript of Master Kalika-Khenmetaten, circa 1370 B.C., by M.G. Hawking:

Discover the profound secret knowledge of the Egyptian Master Kalika-Khenmetaten, who lived and authored her manuscript ‘The Golden Crown’ under the patronage of the Kings of Egypt, Amenhotep III and his successor Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten), over three-thousand-three-hundred years ago.
Kalika produced this esoteric manuscript for important reasons. It is to some extent a manual, a comprehensive guide to reaching higher awareness, written by a supreme master for masters, but not only for masters. Kalika intended that it could be utilized by persons of requisite ability to understand and reach, through their own efforts, significantly expanded levels of awareness. It sets forth the fundamental recognitions and essential principles of consciousness necessary to attain extraordinary perceptive abilities and personal powers.
Author’s Note: “I have endeavored in this book to accomplish the last part of an assignment which I accepted many years ago, to compose an in-depth account of what we know of Kalika-Khenmetaten and her brilliant writings. I wish to tell as much as I can of the contributions her genius has made to the heritage of mankind, and to chronicle and contemplate, in their causes and results, the wisdom of her philosophy and the achievements of her art. However, many years of effort have made it clear that no one mind, and no single lifetime, can adequately encompass this task simply because the story of Kalika is one of the most epic in history and her writings reveal the great knowledge and power of the masters of distant ages.”
Excerpt from ‘The Golden Crown’: “Throughout our land, I see men plowing, fishing, toiling, disputing, cheating and being cheated, running after gold or pleasure; each surrounded by a cloud of hopes, fears, illusions, follies, and hates; believing that gods and fate spin the web of life for each human atom, and each in turn waiting to be drawn away by the messenger of death. Men do not realize their own divinity or true nature, yet it lives within them, ever acting on each experience of their life. Were they to recognize this, they would find that their True Self hovers ever about them, like a magnificent angel, holding in her outstretched hands a priceless Golden Crown. Were they to reach out and take that Golden Crown, it would make each man who does so a Prince, each woman a Princess.” —Kalika-Khenmetaten (circa 1370 B.C.)
The material in this book, owing to its nature and depth, will if allowed come to take on a profound life of its own. The knowledge of Kalika-Khenmetaten offers the illumination, guidance and principles which, if studied with patience and fully integrated into your core belief system, will lay the foundation necessary to enable you to acquire remarkable abilities. A truly incomparable book for anyone on a spiritual path and seeking expanded knowledge and personal power. 2020 Edition, e-reader page count 298 (estimated, actual count varies depending on the reading device used).

In this coming-of-age memoir we meet Richard, a handsome, charming, mischievous, great guy with a fondness for the 1980s party drug of choice, cocaine. Yvonne is 11 years younger, awkward, terrified of her own shadow and even more frightened by the idea of disappointing anyone in her life.
Their attraction makes no sense.
Despite obstacles beyond their control, they are exactly what each other is drawn to as they set about doing the best they can, in all four seasons of their beautiful, one season town, Provincetown, MA. Their connection remains the one thing that can save Yvonne from herself, even while Richard struggles under the weight of his own self-imposed demons.
What they develop is a relationship that unbeknownst to both of them, would last a lifetime and change Yvonne in ways she never thought possible.
They were not supposed to be together.
Yet, they refused to stay apart.
