The Power of Personal Storytelling
by Jack Maguire

“Each story that we tell is a journey. Each journey we take is a story.
Each is an adventure in which we discover our own individual story
and the story that is Everyone’s.”

The Power of Now
by Eckhart Tolle

I remember the first time I read The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle and
how it reminded me of what I had learned in classes at the Center—how
powerful it can be to accept the ongoing invitation to live in the present
moment. As Ernest Holmes puts it, “We cannot be in peace until we know
that the Spirit is the only cause, medium, and effect in our lives. There is
no past, present, and future to It.”

The Power of Myth
by Joseph Campbell

The Power of Myth takes us even deeper than the morality tales of Aesop,
to the inward journey of understanding our essential nature
and learning to read and benefit from the signs along the way
