| | | |  | Dear Friends,
Is it August already? Dear warm and playful Summer, stay a little while longer. Pretty please? While some of us are traveling Down Under to our I Can Do It Conferences in Sydney and Melbourne this month, the rest of us are preparing for the adventurous ride into Hay House’s Fall season. Fasten your seatbelts and hold on tight as we plummet into a whirlwind of wild events and wistful releases where you’ll be encountering whispers from above, a changing course, flower therapy, a spiritual awakening, pillars of health, choices and illusions and a return to the light.
In the meantime, let our selection of summer reading help you discover a deeper faith and perhaps the missing piece to abundant health, wealth, love and happiness.
So sit back, take a healing deep breath, fix yourself a refreshing glass of iced tea and savor this month’s banquet of inspiration from Hay House.
P.S. We love connecting with all of our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and social media friends at our I Can Do It! events and just to stay in touch. So fire up your e-devices and let’s keep the conversation going! (Remember to "Like" us on our Hay House and HealYourLife Facebook pages and "Follow" us on Twitter and Instagram.
| |  | The Rosary
A Conversation with Heaven
By Immaculée Ilibagiza
Immaculée Ilibagiza lost most of her family in the Rwandan genocide of 1994. She survived miraculously to tell the story. Here she describes the experience of hiding from the marauding bands of killers in a tiny bathroom with 7 other women.
I quickly learned that, with my rosary in hand and my heart humbled before God, I could open a door in my mind and step out of the bathroom to be with Him. By the time I finished the rosary’s opening prayers I’d feel a warmth in the center of my chest, as though a glowing ember had been placed beside my heart; after making the Sign of the Cross, that warmth would begin to radiate throughout my entire body. My state of mind became so peaceful that by the time I chose the mystery I intended to meditate on, the bathroom was a blur to me, the shouts of the killers—whether they were outside or searching within the house—were a barely noticed thrum of background noise.
If my heart was sincere, my fingers danced along the beads and my thoughts dropped like a stone in a deep pool of cool, clear, quenching water. My body was still on the hard tile floor, wedged beneath the other women crammed into the tiny space with me, but my mind was no longer in the pastor’s house, no longer in Rwanda—it was with Jesus and Mary in the Holy Land.
I was not hallucinating or experiencing any kind of psychotic break; I was always conscious that, somewhere just behind me or in front of me, armed men were trying to murder me. But my rosary carried me to a place of such deep prayer that the mysteries I meditated on became as real to me as any waking experience or any memory I had of my own life. My prayerful state wasn’t a daydream or surrender to a hyperactive imagination; rather, I was engaged in an active conversation with heaven.
When meditating upon a mystery I felt the same way I did when I was a child sitting beside a wood fire, with my head resting comfortably on my mother’s lap. It wasn’t my earthly mother’s lap in which my head rested now, however, it was the lap of Mother Mary. If I opened my eyes while I was praying, I’d see the beautiful face of Our Lady smiling down at me, calming my soul with her loving presence. Sometimes it was as though she were showing me a movie. If I was confused or frightened, she calmed me wordlessly by softly touching my hair, stroking my cheek, or putting an image in my mind that resolved my question.
As you will soon see, it was through meditating on the mysteries of the rosary with the Blessed Mother at my side that I found the courage, strength, and faith that saved my life, and saved my soul.
Now, the idea that I was sitting and chatting with the Virgin Mary while praying the rosary may seem strange to some people, but it didn’t seem strange to me. Not then and not now. What sometimes is hard for me to believe is how, sitting in the center of the most wretched killing fields the world has ever seen, I was repeatedly able to reach a near-blissful state of prayer. Yet that is exactly what happened to me. While enduring unbearable suffering, I received the most beautiful gift I’ve ever gotten: I discovered how to pray the rosary, find the Blessed Mother, and talk to the Lord. I discovered how to appreciate and receive the full beauty and power these precious beads offer to each and every one of us.
Reflecting on the Mysteries of the Holy Rosary deepened my understanding of God and my place in His kingdom more than anything else I’ve ever seen or done. The lessons I learned through meditating upon these mysteries delivered me from the evil of the genocide and showed how me how to let go of the anger and hatred I felt toward the men who killed my family.
Learning the secrets of the rosary has been a long journey for me, that in many ways, I am still just beginning. I discover new meaning and more blessings in the mysteries every time I kneel to pray.

Yes, You Can Forgive
by don Miguel Ruiz
“You don’t need to change the world, you need to change yourself.”
Before you learned to speak, you loved with no effort, you forgave with no effort. It was natural to love; it was natural to forgive. But then you learned how to behave from other people who didn’t love, who didn’t forgive. Today, if you really want to, you can return to love and let go of whatever is not love. Today can be a new beginning—a day to remember how to love and forgive those who are closest to you.
Imagine that you are in the presence of your mother. Even if your mother is no longer alive, she still lives in your mind. Imagine your mother sitting in front of you so that you can experience a great communion of love with her. Imagine giving your mother the most wonderful hug and kissing her beautiful face. You can feel her emotional reaction to you, and what you feel is love coming from your mother to you. Today, in this moment, you can forgive your mother for any resentment you might have. You don’t need to remember what she did or failed to do; you don’t need to justify your resentments. To forgive is an act of love, an act of union—to get together again.
Today, if you are a mother or a father, imagine the presence of each of your children in front of you. Feel all the love you have for them, and then forgive them and feel that they also forgive you. Today you can experience a communion of love with your children, a moment of communication, a moment of forgiveness. If you are not a mother or a father, imagine a communion of love with someone close to you whom you need to forgive. What happened in the past is no longer important. What is important is to enjoy the presence of the people you love the most.
Many things can happen in life, many misunderstandings and conflicts. But every time we feel hurt, it is because we believe in something that is not even truth—something that may look like truth, but is not. Believing in lies is how we get hurt; believing in lies is why we distance ourselves from the people we really love. Now is the moment to break free of all those lies and let go of all resentments.
Why not enjoy the people we love the most? Why spend precious time creating resentments against our parents because we want to be ourselves, and not what they want us to be? Why don’t we change our point of view and realize that we have so little time to let them know what we really feel in our hearts for them? Why not put away our pride and ask their forgiveness? It isn’t important that we believe they are to blame for some injustice. What is important is to let go of all that pettiness and get together again.
| | |  | The Book of Afformations
A New Way to Banish Negative Talk
by Noah St. John
What is an afformation? No, that’s not a typo. Noah St. John created a new dimension of positive thinking to describe the process of creating and asking empowering questions. Questions compel us to seek answers. By changing the negative questions we ask ourselves into positive ones, we empower ourselves!
Are you one of those people going through life asking yourself disempowering questions without realizing it? And then wondering why you’re not getting the results you dream of? Let’s take a look at the disempowering questions you’re unconsciously asking yourself right now. Then we’ll learn how to consciously turn those disempowering questions into Afformations®, my term for questions which empower.
What are disempowering questions? They’re questions that do precisely that: they disempower you and effectively take away your power to act, by focusing your mind on what you don’t have, what you can’t do, and who you are not.
Disempowering questions take away your power to act.
Of course, no one goes around asking these negative questions on purpose. But you may be unconsciously asking disempowering questions without even realizing it. That’s why I’d like you to try something right now. I want you to say these common disempowering questions out loud, and see how you feel as a result. Ready?
- Why don’t I have enough money?
- Why am I so lonely?
- Why am I such a loser?
- Why am I so fat?
- Why am I so broke?
- Why do I never get the breaks that other people get?
- Why can’t I do anything right?
Each of us is carrying around what I call a Negative Reflection in our subconscious mind—that negative inner voice that tells us we can’t do anything right. The Negative Reflection always asks negative or disempowering questions like the ones listed above.
The ultimate result of them is that you manifest what you focus on. In other words, when you ask yourself negative questions, you get negative results.
Create an Afformations Journal for yourself and write the five most disempowering questions that your Negative Reflection asks you on a regular basis.
Yes, I mean right now.
These disempowering questions may have come from someone in your past, or perhaps you made them up on your own. Either way, it’s vital that you know exactly what your own disempowering questions are so you can begin to turn them around.
Are you ready to find a better way?
Empowering Questions—the Right Questions to Ask
Now that you’ve identified the disempowering questions you’ve been unconsciously asking, you’re probably asking another question right now: “Okay, if those are the disempowering questions I’ve been asking, what are empowering questions—and how can I start asking those instead?”
Empowering questions are those that have precisely the opposite effect of their negative counterparts. While disempowering questions focus your mind on what you don’t have, can’t do, and are not—and therefore take away your power to act—empowering questions focus your mind what you have, what you can do, and who you are.
Empowering questions unleash your ability to take action and express Who You Really Are.
The answers to empowering questions produce feelings of positive self-worth and ultimately lead to answers that tell the truth about Who You Really Are.
Let’s try something fun right now. I want you to change the five disempowering questions you just wrote into empowering questions. How do you do this? Simply reverse the negative question into a positive! For example, let’s say one of the disempowering questions you wrote was: How come I never get the breaks other people get? Your empowering question might be: Why am I so lucky?
Or if one of the disempowering questions you wrote was: Why am I so fat?
Your empowering question could be: Why is it so easy for me to lose weight?
Got it? Grab your pen and change your five disempowering questions into empowering questions in your Afformations® Journal. Are you ready to experience the Afformations difference? Go for it!
Pretty cool, huh? Did you notice something shift in your mind? What does it feel like? Congratulations! You’ve just begun an amazing journey to your new abundant lifestyle.
| | |  | Led by Grace
by Sandra M. Lowe
In this column, we’d like to introduce you to a new family of authors.These are the writers who have followed their innermost dreams and taken the quest to make a difference in the world with their self-published works. We invite you to sample and enjoy their words here…
“Spirit is in a state of grace forever. Your reality is only spirit. Therefore, you are in a state of grace forever.”
—A Course in Miracles
Embarking on an inward journey of awareness may initially be painful. If we see this as the cleansing that it is, we will be better able to remain steadfast in our quest for Inner Peace. We need to look at what we have hidden—what keeps us captive to low self-esteem and self-worth—so that we see it with the eyes of vision and diminish its force over us.
We need to paint our Self-portrait with a brush that knows our Inner Beauty. How have we drawn our portrait? This will reflect how we will draw the portraits of others. If these portraits resemble anything but our magnificent Inner Beauty, then they are being colored by the paint of the ego, which would have us think that we are not good enough in countless ways. We need to stare at the blank page before us with the willingness and conviction that what we begin to draw with vision will be our True Self. When we can see our Self-portrait as such, we will see it in others—even if they are, as yet, unable to paint it themselves.
Most of us are wearing armor or building barriers to protect ourselves. But these things are only protecting our bodies; our Soul needs no protection since it will never be harmed by anything of this world. When we drop the barriers, we become vulnerable, not to potential threat, but to exposing our Self. In doing so, we become “safer” than we ever imagined.
Sandra M. Lowe says she has been searching for something most of her life. She didn’t really know what it was until she had her first Reiki treatment. When she started experiencing visions of familiar settings and spiritual guides, Sandra grabbed a pen and started writing. These journal entries became the key to Sandra’s quest to get to know her true Self. They are also the focus of her new book, Led by Grace, which is the first in a collection of books that will guide readers to their Soul—to know it, to be it. Writing is Sandra’s third career. Her first was director/senior investment analyst and the second was a full-time mother of four children. An avid reader of Hay House’s Present Moments newsletter, Sandra lives in Wawa, Ontario and spends much of her time in the pristine natural environment of the area writing, doing yoga and meditating.

| | | Remembering Peter Calhoun
At press time, we just learned that our beloved Hay House author Peter Calhoun passed from this Earth on Sunday evening, July 21. Peter was a former Episcopal priest who had followed the path of modern shamanism.
“Peter had such a unique sensitivity to all living things which gave him a deep insight into many situations and what was needed for each, whether it was a healing for a person or a healing for the Earth,” Peter’s longtime partner Astrid wrote in a letter to their web community. “Because of the depth of his compassion, Peter would often push himself beyond his limit in order to be a helping influence.”
In 2006, Peter published his insightful book, Soul on Fire, with Hay House. It’s a magical collection of stories describing the awakening of spiritual powers and the quest for “lost knowledge.”
All those who knew Peter can certainly resonate with Astrid’s beautiful words here: “I know it was his passionate desire that this healing technology become available far and wide. Over the course of many years, through his writings, his speaking, his teaching, his healings, and the overflowing love of his heart, Peter has left a giant footprint for good on this planet.”

How to Find Out What's Really Wrong Using Advanced Clearing Energetics
by Richard Flook
In Why Am I Sick? Richard Flook explains how disease really works, revealing how the body has not, in fact, made a mistake, but that there are different types of stressful experiences that can cause specific diseases to occur. He tackles the challenging questions of why cancers develop, how chronic diseases are caused, how allergies start, why our beliefs about bacteria and viruses are flawed, and how our present way of treating disease is in desperate need of updating.

10 Life Lessons from Your Favorite Authors
“Dig your well before you’re thirsty.”
—Seth Godin
Brace yourself—the biggest cheerleader for the Hay House World Summit is back again this month. Okay, you may be getting tired of me babbling on ad nauseum about this collection of rich and inspiring interviews. But as a proud member of the cheering squad, I must shake my positive pompoms in your space one more time because this content is really that good.
Are there a few drops of room left in your well?
I know. It’s the age of information bombardment and you’re getting empowering content thrown at you in all shapes, sizes and forms. It’s everywhere—in books still sitting on your shelves, in e-letters you haven’t opened yet, in social media posts you haven’t had time to keep up with, in downloads sitting in your Hay House account waiting to be clicked on, on USBs from past I Can Do It! shows that are still in your suitcase, and so on.
Sometimes it’s like you’re in one of those batting cages and the balls keep coming at you faster and faster. They are all opportunities for a home run, but there are too many for you to take a swing at. So you trust your instincts and go after one or two that you think you can connect with.
Since you’re here, let me toss you a couple of gems to play with…
