Awakening to Spirit

Despite unprecedented advances in technology, education, economic growth and material wealth, experience is showing that we have never been so stressed, paranoid and disconnected from God, nature and life's greater meaning. To reconnect with these essential aspects of ourselves, it is becoming increasingly important to take individual responsibility for aligning ourselves with a more transpersonal awareness. Awakening to Spirit, a doctoral research project, delivers scientific, neurological and psychological substantiated spiritual practices suitable to, and more easily integrated with, our present-day culture and demands. Surprisingly, it was the shock of motherhood to the author's previously ordered life that provided the catalyst for her research, given the difficulties she faced in integrating her former spiritual practices into this new chaos. The resulting research and metaphysical journey detailed in this work is an informative read for anyone interested in furthering their understanding of the nature of consciousness, and reconnecting to the divine source of all awareness.
