I AM, YOU ARERosemary Gallagher
Are you in need of a little self-love? Do you want to let someone else know how special you think they are? If so then this perfect little “pick me up” book is just what you need. The simple A–Z format provides inspiring and encouraging single words of wisdom–little words with big meanings. The words have been chosen to encourage self-love and acceptance, each one selected to be a friend and companion to help you to believe in who YOU ARE. Experience each word, practise using it, and believe. You don’t need lots of words to express who you are or how you feel–sometimes ONE is perfect. Small, simple, powerful. The “I Am” side of the book is an affirmation of our internal journey, who we are to ourselves; the “You Are” side is a statement of intention to the world on your external journey, how we would like to the world to see us. They mirror each other in perfect symmetry–inner and outer meeting as one.
Rosemary Gallagher was born in Melbourne, Australia, but moved to London in 2000 where she began formal tarot studies at the College of Psychic Studies.

THE NOTE FROM HEAVENHow to Sing Yourself to Higher ConsciousnessGitha Ben-David
Githa Ben-David presents a method for liberating the natural voice using regressive cell singing–one of the most direct ways to get in contact with the subconscious mind. This liberation has a healing effect on body and soul and can be experienced by every speaking person. With inspiration from India, Githa has put together a program for self-study, along with a practice instruction plan that can be downloaded. Utilising this method you will sing yourself free from traumas that have their origin in this life, the womb or previous lifetimes. In regressive cell singing, the “note from heaven” is used as a tuning fork to retune cells to their former harmony. Any notes, sounds or outbursts that genuinely express The Note from Heaven can release blocked energy imprisoned in the singer’s body as trauma. The process starts a cell-dance, which reorganizes the body back to its original balanced matrix.
Githa Ben-David is a sound therapist, singer, composer and author. Githa is the author of the only comprehensive work on sound therapy in three volumes, published in Danish. She is married to musician and writer Lars Muhl, with whom she created The Gilalai Institute for Energy and Consciousness.

This cycle of conscious celebration helps us, year on year, to align with nature’s rhythms with greater wonder and insight. Based on sound extensive research, as well as many years of practical experience through both personal practice and teaching, the book will act as a guide for weaving a new, more soulful way of living into readers’ everyday existence.

PLAY THE FOREST SCHOOL WAYWoodland Games, Crafts and Skills for Adventurous KidsPeter Houghton and Jane Worroll

It celebrates the Forest School philosophy of encouraging self-esteem, confidence and social skills through engagement with nature. The charming illustrations create a magical feel and chime with the “back-to-nature” content, inspiring parents and teachers to guide their children to really play the Forest School way!
