Pitch: In this day of sky-rocketing mental illness, prescription drug abuse and overdose, a broken criminal justice system, and a presidential election characterized by divisive language and an emphasis on blaming others, it's nice to hear that modern neuroscience indicates that we use the power of neuroplasticity to cultivate and strengthen our overall wellbeing. 

Through years of study and rigorous mental training, guided by generous mentors and teachers, John Lykurgus Wade overcame alcholism, depression, severe PTSD, and 8 1/2 of incarceration, and now teaches Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT), developed at Emory University and is now even taught at the Emory School of Medicine. In fact Research is currently being conducted at Emory and other universities to examine the benefits of CBCT for a variety of populations including medical students, nurses, cancer survivors, veterans with PTSD, HIV+ individuals, school children, and parents of autistic children.

In 2014, John and his wife Roxy reached out to Timothy Harrison, the Assistant Director of CBCT and Carol Beck, the Assistant Director of the Emory-Tibet Partnership (ETP) to learn more about CBCT and its ability to develop and cultivate well-being. Realizing compassion training’s (which includes “mindfulness") ability to foster prosocial mental states (including mental stability, resilience, gratitude, empathy, and compassion), John, and his wife Roxy, travelled from their home in the Hill Country of Central Texas to Atlanta Georgia to attend the Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT) Foundation Course. Acceptance into the extensive CBCT Teacher Training program followed, led by Geshe Lobbing Tenzin Negi, PhD.

In 2015, John and Roxy, working with Timothy Harrison, and with the approval of Dr. Negi, led an initiative to bring Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT) to an online platform, motivated by the wish to bring the program to a wider audience. And after months of research and experimentation, John and Roxy were given approval to launch the world’s first platform (Living Heart+Mind) to offer Online Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT). 

In her book, Landscapes of the Heart: the working world of a sex and relationship therapist, published April 7 2016, Juliet Grayson takes us through the doorway into the hidden world or a psychotherapy session.  She shakes our assumptions about how relationships work, and what to expect from our intimate partners, showing us different routes to more satisfying and loving intimacy, and giving us a grounded understanding of what makes relationships successful. 

These compelling stories give us privileged access to the therapy room, providing a vivid picture of the therapeutic process, which includes the therapist’s inner thoughts.  We sit on Juliet’s shoulder and witness her humanity and compassion, as she uses a rich blend of life-changing approaches, drawing on twenty-five years of clinical experience.  In each fascinating journey, we follow the client(s) through two or more sessions, covering weeks or months.  Thus we can track the effects of the insights her clients (five couples and one individual) have gained, as they progress to more loving relationships. In each case, Juliet shares a particular aspect of theory, so we can see the methodologies that underpin her work. 

A variety of methodologies

Juliet shows us a range of methods from Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), emotional fusion, anger management, Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP), and introduces us to two of her new models: ‘The Pleaser,The Boss, The Loner and the Self-Developer’, and Five Star Conscious Relating.

The first book showing sessions of Pesso Boyden System Psychmotor Therapy in the UK

Juliet introduces us to PBSP: a potent methodology that is relatively unknown in the UK.  PBSP was established in USA in 1960’s, and is well known in Holland and many European countries.  She shows us how PBSP works in action, both in one-to-one sessions, and within a group.

This book is for the general public, anyone interested in relationships, for one-to-one therapists who want to learn about working with couples, for students of counselling and psychotherapy

This book will give helpful insights, tips and tools to anyone who wants to have a good relationship.  It will be fascinating for anyone thinking of attending a therapy session.  It is a must for students of counselling and psychotherapy. It is an invaluable resource for any therapist who wants to learn more about working with couples, and stands alongside Juliet’s six modular workshop on: How To Work With Couples: for therapists who usually work one-to-one.

What others say about the book

A powerful, compassionate & authoritative guide to the secrets of an exceptional sex and couples counsellor.  Juliet Grayson captures the essence of this mysterious, transformational process of working successfully with couples on their most painful and intimate issues.  It's an essential read for anyone who also want to enhance their own self awareness and emotional intelligence.

Judith Lowe, PPD Learning Ltd, NLP Training Institute

Beautifully written. A compelling and lively read, steeped in humanity and

Dr Michael Crowe, DM, FRCPsych

I am delighted to see Juliet publish the first book in the UK describing

the effectiveness of Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor (PBSP)

in individual and group sessions. This continues Juliet’s passion:

to spread the message that PBSP is a transformative method that

supports people becoming more fully who they truly are and finding

greater meaning and pleasure in life.

Landscapes of the Heart can be read from several perspectives. Its easy to-

read style will inform struggling couples – as well as benefit couples

who want to improve a satisfactory relationship. Therapists (or anyone

interested in becoming a therapist) will learn about the systemic nature

of working with couples from the comprehensive client cases. And

there are powerful examples with explanations of how to use the Pesso

Boyden method in psychosexual work. This is an absorbing, practical

and beautifully written book we will recommend to many people.

I wrote an essay recently called Healing the Mother Wound that was published. Little did I know that baby would grow wings and fly all around the world. It went viral. I tapped into a universal vein that had mind blowing impact.  I received letters worldwide thanking me for writing that piece- a deep, personal window into rage, grief and healing.  A forgiveness that not many come to in life.

These letters in my inbox spilled out cathartic releases from people.  One woman said her tears had been locked up inside her, a dry- to- the- bone empty well that she had to live with, bury, hide. When she landed on my essay, she said a waterfall of tears poured out of her for the first time in years. A healing so deep penetrated the core of her anger and resentment toward her mother, and she found her way back 'home' to herself. Softened. Open. Fueled with compassion. 

This is the direct impact of sharing our stories. The hard ones. The ones that make me cringe to send out into the world, exposing my under belly to thousands of people.  The ripple effect that I witnessed is the very reason why I write, why I help writers' write, why writing the truth, being courageous enough to craft it out, is powerful beyond measure. 

Not only is the process of writing an alchemical unveiling, it has the ability to reveal yourself to yourself. A peeling of layers, an unearthing of personal truth has the capacity to reach deep inside another person and literally change their lives as it changes your life. 

I am a writing coach. I edit books and essays. I look beneathe the grammar and typos for the deeper story, the voice that wants to be speak and be heard, for the heart's pulse threading the words together like strands of pearls.  

There are many people with poignant stories they keep hidden in the darkest cavern of their memory, in fear of letting them out into the light of day, of being vulnerable, of hurting others.  Maya Angelou said, "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside of you."  The weight of it is exhausting and detrimental to the soul and peace of mind. To lay it down on paper and step by step, saying it out loud, the load of life lightens and we realize our grief, our shame, our wound is universal. What is also universal is resilience, the cultivation of wisdom that can come from our hurt, and the shared journey of being ever so bone and blood-filled human.

Leslie Caplan is a fiercely courageous heart who has found her way whole through the alchemy of writing. She is a powerful advocate for writers, and uses the depth of her skill and innate abilities to guide writers deeper into their stories. An editor, writing coach and internationally published writer, Leslie brings it to real with an unwavering passion for authenticity, fluidity and telling your story from the inside out.

Guided by intuition and Spirit, I discovered my soul assignment to scribe the book, Love's Curriculum: Messages of Enlightenment, for the High Council. As our companions through the current spiritual Awakening, Jesus, the archangels, and other spiritual teachers have gathered as the High Council and now share with us in Love's Curriculum their messages of enlightenment. These Divine messages have a clear goal: To awaken us to the Love that connects all. This book is the High Council's gift to us--a guidebook for the journey.

Through Divine grace and enormous trust, I traveled a path from lawyer to student of spirituality and mother of three, to spiritual counselor and intuitive, to learn of my soul assignment. It is with great humility, courage, and gratitude that I have brought forth Love's Curriculum. Now, I work to spread its messages and help individuals and groups connect with the High Council on their path to Awakening, to being LOVE, to igniting Divine LOVE in the world.

Jenny Hogg Ashwell is a natural bridge to the spiritual realm, and gifted guide and mentor on the spiritual journey. Also a Registered Therapeutic Counsellor, Jenny is dedicated to awakening Love in the world. In her work she displays a beautiful balance between the intellect and the spiritual mystic, being highly gifted in both areas. Jenny began her career with a bachelor of science in business administration with honors in finance from the University of California, Berkeley in 1992. She then went on to earn her juris doctorate from Northwestern University School of Law in 1996. After graduating from law school, Jenny worked as a lawyer for a large law firm in Phoenix, Arizona. It was then that she embarked on a path of spiritual and personal discovery; a path that led to her leaving her first marriage, and leaving her career as a lawyer when she realized it was not her soul’s calling. Jenny then moved to Canada in 1999, remarried shortly thereafter, and eventually became mom to two beautiful girls.

In Canada she continued her spiritual and personal growth. Her journey brought her through a second divorce, remarriage, the birth of her son, personal development workshops with Insight Counseling and Training, and a diploma in trans-personal counseling psychology from Clearmind International Institute in 2013. All the while, Jenny tuned in to her connection to Spirit to help guide and direct her through healing, learning, and growing. Her spiritual and personal growth path led to the discovery of her soul’s assignment to scribe Love’s Curriculum for the High Council. You may read more about her journey in the Afterword to the book. Jenny lives with her husband and three children in Western Canada where she enjoys walks in the woods with her dogs. In addition to raising her children with as much love and consciousness as she knows how, and continuing to step into her assignment as conduit for the High Council’s messages, she also operates her own private practice, Shining Heart Personal Growth.

Greetings,  I'm the foremost authority on Edgar Cayce's natural health products.

Former house painter, I studied the Cayce readings in Virgina Beach during the 90's with a focus on the concepts dealing with the health/illness question, and developed the concepts which were unique to Mr. Cayce including the Radial Device, Animated Ash, The Wet Cell, and a number of other concepts/products.  I was so successful in demonstrating the viability of these ideas that the organization discredited my work as a means of protecting their own dysfunctional approach and handling of the readings for several decades.  Mr Cayce presented a comprehensive overview of natural healing which set the standard for the industry, but today this knowledge is all but forgotten due to the pervasive fear consciousness within the controling body.
