By  Nassir H. Sabah (www.o-books.com) Divine Happiness Through Spirituality Spirituality in the present context is to be understood as the quality of being that is  predicated on a sense of closeness and connectedness to The Almighty – the Creator of the  universe and the Guide and Sustainer of everything in it. The existence of The Almighty is   indisputably evidenced by the Quran, whose myriad miraculous features pose an insurmountable  challenge to disprove its divine origin. For non-Muslims the Quran is to be regarded as a standalone text that should be appraised o ..read more

In Deep Fitness you introduce a specialized form of exercise. What do you call it? It’s called Mindful Strength Training to Failure, or MSTF for short. How did mindfulness and exercise come together in this fitness program?

Philip was immediately hooked, and while Andrei continued to train him, Philip began training Andrei in The Embodied Present Process – the m ..read more

By Devorah    My new single, “Fire Spinner,” is about a girl I was seeing who was passionate about the art of fire dancing. The lyrics “Letting her love flow through those roots, tonight,” is about the practice of grounding down into the present moment, which is apparent in that type of movement. My writing process was inspired by my daily meditation practice, as well as qi gong, kundalini yoga, vinyasa yoga, and reiki. I clear my mind with these practices on a daily basis, and that aids me in being a channel for different lyrics and melodies. The word “flow”, which consistently come ..read more

 By J. Daniel Sims I say goodbye to Australia and board the flight for my first leg back to Kuala Lumpur. I’m flying a Boeing 777 on Malaysia Airlines, the same plane which, just three years later, would disappear over the Indian Ocean en route to Beijing with 227 passengers and 12 staff onboard. This flight arrives safely, but just barely. Lights are flashing on and off. People are screaming. Air masks come down several times. I am fairly convinced we are going to die at numerous points during the voyage. Fearful, immature faith recommitments and quickly forgotten promises to God ensue ..read more

by Akash Sky / www.o-books.com I grew up thinking Self Realisation is for the Holy People amongst us, it’s alien to society as it talks of mystical experiences and life beyond the 5 senses so this subject tends to have a lot of fear based around it. It’s a subject that we are not taught through our education system, a subject which we touch on in religious studies, but religion has division in it itself and doesn’t address Universal spirituality. Its simply the truth of what we are, how we have been created, what is this universe, this world, this body and how we are a multidimensional being a ..read more

This was the question that prompted me to write my latest book, And She Lived Happily Ever After (O Books due out 31st March 2023). What began as one of those ‘Lockdown Projects’ soon became a source of investigating why, despite being in the 21st century, women were still struggling to find their happy ever after in most if not all areas of their lives.  My seventies childhood confirmed to me that men were the ones who called all the shots in a woman’s life. I notice how misogynistic the ‘70 ..read more

Imagine for a moment that you are living a life you feel is not your own. You feel like you’re stuck in a constant cycle of pain and chaos with no end. You try to fight it, but it seems like no matter what you do, the darkness always swallows you whole. This is what addiction feels like. Addiction can be a difficult topic to talk about. It’s often seen as taboo, and many people struggle to understand it. This is in part because addiction can manifest in many different ways. Some people become addicted to drugs or alcohol, while others become addicted to gambling, food, or sex. Regardless of th ..read more
