Dr. Amit Goswani, THE EVERYTHING ANSWER BOOK. 'Quantum physics is an antidote to the moral sterility and mechanistic approach of scientific materialism and is the best and clearest approach to understanding our universe. In short, quantum physics is indeed the theory of everything' (from the Amazon description).
Amit Goswani is one of the foremost theoretical quantum physicists worldwide and the founder of Quantum University and the global quantum activism movement. He was featured in the film documentary, 'What the Bleep Do We Know.'
Dr. Shefali Tsabary, THE CONSCIOUS PARENT: TRANSFORMING OURSELVES, EMPOWERING OUR CHILDREN. "Instead of being merely the receiver of the parents' psychological and spiritual legacy, children function as ushers of the parents' development. Parents unwittingly pass on an inheritance of psychological pain and emotional shallowness. To handle the behavior that results, traditional books on parenting abound with clever techniques for control and quick fixes for dysfunction. In Dr. Shefali Tsabary's conscious approach to parenting, however, children serve as mirrors of their parents' forgotten self. Those willing to look in the mirror have an opportunity to establish a relationship with their own inner state of wholeness. Once they find their way back to their essence, parents enter into communion with their children, shifting towards a mutual parent-with-child relationship. The pillars of the parental ego crumble as the parents awaken to the ability of their children to transport them into a state of presence." (From the Amazon Description)
Gary Gemmill, Ph.D. and George Kraus, Ph.D., A VIEW FROM THE COSMIC MIRROR - REFLECTIONS OF THE SELF IN EVERYDAY LIFE. This book provides an explanation of the quantum physics principle, from a psychotherapeutic perspective, that all experiences we encounter in life are a reflection of our own consciousness, and especially of denied feelings that we carry within.
A View from the Cosmic Mirror
Robert Fisher, THE KNIGHT IN THE RUSTY ARMOR. This short book is an entertaining and insightful myth (by a former television writer for Groucho Marx), describing the efforts of a knight of old to become the perfect image of knighthood at the expense of his humanity and his relationship with his loved ones. He becomes stuck in his suit of armor, providing a metaphor to the plight of many modern relationships.

Clarke Moustakas, LONELINESS. Loneliness is a stage we go through on the way to aloneness (all oneness), where loneliness transforms into the experience of being alone with oneself in a joyful reunion with the soul. In this short book, Moustakas introduces new seekers of oneness to this beautiful process.

Ceanne DeRohan, RIGHT USE OF WILL: HEALING AND EVOLVING THE EMOTIONAL BODY. This is the book where I learned the Deep Feeling Awareness technique I use in my therapy approach. This is the description of the book offered on Amazon:
"The Will has for so long been misunderstood, judged against, disciplined, punished and denied that most people no longer even know what the Will really is. Many are now calling positive thinking by the mind Will power. While Mind is the masculine aspect, Will is the feminine aspect of our nature and is experienced as intuition, feeling, emotion, receptivity and desire. This book helps the reader understand what the Will is and how to evolve it from the immaturity that has resulted from long suppression."

THE KEYS.
If you are interested in learning to meditate, these techniques taught by Prem Rawat are a simple and powerful way to turn inside and calm your mind so you can experience being yourself without interference from thought.
"THE KEYS is a series of five videos, each one hour in length, which provide the foundation for four practical techniques that enable a person to turn their attention inside in order to experience the peace that resides there. These techniques are called Knowledge.
Each Key video is a presentation on a particular topic that will help you prepare for Knowledge. Once you have watched the five Keys, you can attend a session where you will be taught the techniques of Knowledge." (from the Words of Peace website)

INSIDE OUT, 2015
This is an animated film in which the emotions inside a young girl's heart are represented as individual people vying for her attention as the child goes through an emotionally upsetting experience of being uprooted from her home town and relocated to a new city. By the way, as amazing as it may seem, the representation of quantum physics in the film is scientifically accurate, including the concept of travel faster than light, theoretically at least, having the capacity for past and future time travel.
PRACTICAL MAGIC, 1998
This is a beautiful story which brings together true love, quantum reality and deep magic (that which we all have access to), resulting in a journey through experiences of loss, being different and coping with evil to a state of magic and joy. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman From the novel by Alice Hoffman.

WHAT THE (BLEEP) DO WE KNOW?
This is the original film presenting the discoveries of quantum physics to the public. Part documentary, part drama, this film will introduce you to the understandings that have come from the experimental work of theoretical quantum phsyicists over the past 65 years in language that is understandable by non scientists. Entertaining and informative.
SHADOW WORK EXPLAINED
This is a 37 minute youtube clip describing what the 'unconcscious' is, how it got there, how it serves your false self image, how it is distorting and diminishing you and your experience of life. The role of judgement, self deception and hierarchal thinking in creating and maintaining the 'unconscious' is also revealed.
I recommend this clip to clients working with me in order to understand the importance and purpose of deep feeling therapy in unraveling and revealing the parts of ourselves which we have bound and gagged within our unconscious and which keep us trapped in self deception and societal conditioning.
I will be adding links and resources tailored to individual client needs as they come up. If you are interested in links or resources on any particular topics, please let me know.
