Higher Self Expression: How to Become an Artist of Possibility
What is creative genius, where does it come from, and how can we unleash it in ourselves? These are the questions explored in the ground-breaking new book, Higher Self Expression by Jeff Carreira. We all know that there are some people who demonstrate a capacity for extraordinary creative genius that sets them apart. They articulate things that have never been known before and become the transformative visionaries of history. We often assume that they must have been born with a rare talent for novelty. In this book, you will discover that genius is not only a talent that you are born with, it is a human capacity that can be trained and cultivated by anyone. In these pages, you will learn how to nurture your own creative brilliance by examining the unusual lives of luminaries ranging from: Gertrude Stein, Ralph Waldo Emerson and William James, to Ana s Nin, Philip K. Dick and Captain Marvel. You will compare the genius of Eastern mysticism with the brilliance of Christianity and Islam. You will explore great works of poetry, literature, science fiction, comic books and even extreme sports. There is no realm of human endeavor that can not produce genius. What you learn from this brief history of genius becomes truly valuable as you discover how it can be applied to unleash your own creative potential. You will learn how to develop your own capacity for genius by discovering a mysterious inner state of mind that is intimately connected to life and simultaneously free of limitations and boundaries. You will see how some of the world's most creative individuals have accessed this profound depth of imagination to fuel their artistic endeavors. Genius is always driven by intuitions that arise out of an open-minded sensitivity that can be learned, practiced and mastered. Jeff Carreira, the bestselling author of fourteen previous titles, takes you on a journey at the border between spirituality and creativity. You will see how art is ultimately a spiritual endeavor, and spiritual work is ultimately the artistry of living. By sharing his own inner realizations and the intimate details of his creative process, Carreira gives you the necessary insights that unlock your own creative potential and reveal the gift you were born to give to the world.

As an aerial film pilot, Jeff Senour knows firsthand that there are moments of excitement and awe as well as moments he has had to face fear and the unknown. Filming large aircraft going over 300 miles per hour is as safe as we make it as a result of thorough briefings and protocols. However, there are times unforeseen situations can emerge, kind of like life when we are presented with split-seconddecisions that have to be made.After spending over 30,000 hours, roughly 3 1/2 years in the air, aviation has taught Jeff many things about life. This journey is not all about the landing but soaring through this beautiful world, experiencing what each has in store. Usually, it's a clear, smooth day but sometimes there's a storm in our path that we have to navigate around or an emergency that pops up we have to take care of to avoid a worsening problem. Flying has taught Jeff about love, kindness, forgiveness, striving for perfection, and never accepting the status quo.Jeff wants you to be inspired and motivated to live a life of gratitude and joy as well as find the flame that burns inside of each of us and the gifts that we've been given to leave this world a better place than when we came into it.Almost 8 billion people on earth and no two of us are alike and each one of us has a purpose. We each have unique gifts and it's our job to find those gifts and do something good with them.Jeremiah 1:5 tells us, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born, I consecrated you, I appointed you a prophet to the nations."

Ever since the dawn of time, humans have marveled at the miracle of flight. What was once a pipe dream is now a regular occurrence as over 10 Million people around the world board an aircraft each day and fly somewhere. It is easy to take for granted how easy it is to traverse our planet with ease and comfort. Once upon a time it would have been a lifelong event to travel across a country let alone leaping across an entire ocean at will.As a professional Pilot, I have had the honor of seeing the world from a vantage point that has brought perspective about this journey we call life. With over 30,000 hours or almost 3 1/2 years on a flight deck, I have witnessed some of the most beautiful sights anyone could imagine. Flying has brought me a sense of gratitude of the world we live in and the lessons it has taught me about life. I've always chuckled at the one thing that gets a majority of the attention from passengers. It's the landing. Now don't get me wrong, the landing is definitely an important part of a flight but it's not all about the landing. We have all experienced those landings that are well let's just say, solid. Usually they are smooth as silk. When you make a good landing passengers are usually very complimentary but if you pound one on the pavement, be prepared to hear something like, "What was that?" Or, "You must be a Navy Pilot. It's similar to our life's journey, usually no turbulence and our landings at the end of each day are fairly smooth. However, we all know that life can dish out some of those bad weather days and on occasion some solid landings at times. Even those emergencies that arise that we have to deal with like finances, health, families and such. Life however is a beautiful flight from pre-flight to the final landing and the journeys in between. The landing is the final act, the finale after the culmination of endless pre-flight preparation, planning and executing for an ultimate safe flight. Every flight we do, we have to know which direction we're going, what's our destination. When we fly, we don't just put it on auto-pilot and fly off into the sunset hoping for the best. As we fly this adventure through life, we need to have a destination, a direction, a moral compass. Having a compass in life is key to success as we must constantly strive to maintain a moral compass, a direction of what is right and wrong, always attempting to make that great landing at the end. Setting goals and having a plan will allow us to have success. Aviation has taught me to never give up. When I was in College I went to the Air Force recruiter to see about being a fight pilot. My dream was squashed immediately when they found out I wore contact lenses. Fast forward to later in my career and there I was as an Aerial Coordinator, briefing with the Blue Angels as I prepared to fly formation with them to film a movie called, "Lady And Gentlemen, The Blue Angels". I later went on to fly in major motion pictures as well as film the Thunderbirds and Canadian Snowbirds. Don't ever give up.There are almost 8 Billion people on Earth and each one of us has a unique gift. Aviation has shown me that we should all reach deep inside ourselves and find those gifts and do something good with them. Don't ever let anyone stop you from achieving your dreams and always strive to "Reach For The Sky", so when you make your final landing you can always look back and say, "I Lived".

The Fleet Feet of Spring: Michigan's High School State Championships in Track & Field
FOURTH EDITION: Updated Through the 2023 State Finals Decades in the making, this is the authoritative history of Michigan's high school state finals in outdoor track & field, a meet that traces its origins to 1895. The action, the records, the stories, the fascinating athletes and coaches--it's all here. Also included is a complete listing of every state champion individual ever, even the individuals on winning relays.REVIEWS OF THE FIRST EDITION (all 5 stars): "Even though I don't live in Michigan, I love this book. It is very obvious that a lot of hard work and research went into the production of this book. This book begins with high school track and field in Michigan in 1895 (Grover Cleveland was president) and details the Michigan state meet all the way to last year (2018). I have followed track and field for 57 years and have never seen such a detailed and thorough book on high school track and field. If you live in Michigan or even if you live in Alaska or Florida, you will enjoy the information, photographs, and results in the 439 pages of this wonderful book.""I expected this book to be a list of all of the great performances in Michigan track & field history. It is SO MUCH MORE Great stories, pictures and summaries of amazing races. My entire family had enjoyed reading through it. I can not recommend it strongly enough ""With Jim Moyes being my dad, I'm probably a little biased but he knows A LOT about track and field (he calls it useless knowledge) and is a fantastic writer (majored in journalism and Latin at Central Michigan University). I remember him, for example, going to Rome and Russia for meets and served as a starter for years at our local High School. He was working on this for decades.""Thorough and thoroughly engaging A well-researched mix of statistical history and personal profiles of the coaches and athletes who created it. I highly recommend it ""Good."
Tales from the Indiana High School Basketball Locker Room

Tales from the Indiana High School Basketball Locker Room

It’s often said that while Dr. James Naismith invented basketball in Massachusetts, the sport was raised and ultimately came of age in the high schools of Indiana, the state where politics, religion, and sweet corn fall in line behind the game played with the round orange ball. Tales from the Indiana High School Basketball Locker Room, now newly revised, centers on those special people who have played the game—their stories, their passion, their drive for excellence, their laughs, and their tears. This is a book about Lebanon schoolboy hero Rick Mount, the first prep basketball player ever featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated; it’s about Gene Cato, the Indiana High School Athletic Association’s former commissioner whose father—his high school coach—would not put the young scoring phenomenon into a game until his team’s fans demanded it; it’s also about Marion’s “Purple Reign”—consecutive state championships in 1985, 1986, and 1987 when the Giants were the most important game on every opponent’s schedule. John Wooden, Bobby Plump, Steve Alford, Damon Bailey, Gary Harris, Caleb Swanigan, Yogi Ferrell—it’s as easy for an Indiana high school basketball fan to roll the names off the tongue as it is to find the broadcast of a high school game on AM radio on any Friday night during an Indiana winter. Tales from the Indiana High School Basketball Locker Room is not so much about statistics and winning streaks as it is about the personalities and emotions of those who created a phenomenon that became a way of life in the Hoosier State.

Japanese Version-The Miraculous Results of Extremely High Doses of Vitamin D3

200,000+ Copies Sold Worldwide This updated edition has a fascinating new look at diabetes as an evolved defense to freezing damage in winter gone out of control Book description: 144+ Pages of Fact-Packed Science Based Information-But FUN to read- Upon realizing that taking 4,000 IU of Vitamin D3 a day was not enough for me, I decided to embark on a "dangerous" experiment that directly contradicted everything MD's had told me for years: " DON'T TAKE TOO MUCH VITAMIN D IT IS DANGEROUS " I started taking 20,000 IU a day-50X times the recommended dose of 400 IU a day. After about 4 months upped the dose to 50,000 IU a day or 150X the old recommended "safe" dose I then boosted it to 100,000 IU a day or 300 x TIMES the old maximum safe dose What happened over these last 10 months? Did I die? get sick? No Just the opposite High dose Vitamin D3 therapy over the last year-CURED ALL MY CHRONIC CONDITIONS-SOME THAT I'D HAD FOR 20+ YEARS 1.A painful snapping hip syndrome which I had been suffering from for 23 years and no Dr could help me-It is now 100% gone. No pain and NO SNAPPING 2.Yellow fungus infected toenails (under the nail)- I tried everything over 20 years and nothing worked-10 months of high dose Vitamin D3 and they are clear as a bell 100% cured. 3.A knobby bone spur on my elbow that made me look like Popeye the sailor man-It has now 100% dissolved and my elbow is back to the way it used to be 20 years ago. 4.Painful, clicking, popping, stiff Arthritic shoulders that prevented me from even throwing a ball from home plate past the infield. A condition I've had for 15 years. Gone. No more popping snapping or clicking and I can throw the ball twice as far . 5.A ganglion cyst that persisted on my wrist for over 5 years has shrunk from the size of half a golf ball to the size of a pea and now it is rock hard, painless, and shrinking. 6.A small subcutaneous cyst on my face that had not gone away for 20 years -now gone 7.AND-Without even trying my weight has dropped by 25 pounds from 204 to 179. This book tells you detailed results of my experiment, dangers to avoid, and also discusses a simple and elegant new theory that suggests how High Dose Vitamin D3 therapy Should help PREVENT OR CURE all the epidemics of disease and health issues that have been plaguing us since the 1980's when Doctors started warning us to stay out of the sun and always use sunscreen. This has created the huge epidemics we see today of Obesity, Autism, Asthma, and many others The theory is simple-Vitamin D3 is a hormone that your skin makes when you sit in the sun, it is not a vitamin it was just mislabeled when it was discovered. When your Vitamin D3 levels are low, your body gets you to prepare for winter by overeating, slowing you down to conserve energy, and even making you depressed to keep you housebound. Interestingly it is this same drop in Vitamin D3 levels that signals a bear to start hibernating If your body expects famine-like conditions caused by winter to be likely- it will conserve your critical resources for the future. This leads to what I call the Incomplete Repair Syndrome which in turn causes most of the diseases humans face other than spontaneous gene mutations that cause syndromes and diseases caused exclusively by aging. High D3 can be used to prevent or treat a huge number of diseases MS, asthma, 17 kinds of cancer, lupus, arthritis, heart disease, obesity, depression, Parkinsons+many more... This IS the better mousetrap Most MD's get just a basic 4 years in Med School, then work to earn not learn. I've researched diseases and aging for 20+ years, with a 10 year stint where I spent 12 hrs/day everyday in the Northwestern Med School's library just reviewing clinical and scientific studies .I've had 3 major papers published; the journal has 5 Nobel Prizes between the editors. And described my papers as extremely exciting and of major importance
