n his popular books The Leap and Extraordinary Awakenings, Steve Taylor has presented his groundbreaking research into the phenomenon of spiritual awakening. Here, he lays out his program allowing listeners to experience awakening for themselves.

Three Magic Words presents a simple but profound truth: we can shape the outer world by shaping our inner thoughts. Instead of being controlled by circumstances, we can become architects of our reality by harnessing the power of consciousness itself. Throughout the book, U. S. Andersen illustrates this principle with meditations to help you reframe difficult situations and cultivate liberating thoughts.

What does it mean to be enlightened or spiritually awakened? In The Leap, Steve Taylor shows that this state is much more common than is generally believed. He shows that ordinary people—from all walks of life—can and do regularly "wake up" to a more intense reality, even if they know nothing about spiritual practices and paths. Wakefulness is a more expansive and harmonious state of being that can be cultivated or that can arise accidentally. It may also be a process we are undergoing collectively.

Originally published in 1961 and here presented in a fresh new edition that has been edited for gender neutrality, cultural inclusivity, and greater relevance for our times.

What if meditation didn’t require discipline, technique, or hours of sitting still but was actually something you looked forward to? In How to Meditate Without Even Trying, Peter Russell shares the liberating insight at the heart of his decades-long teaching: The harder we try to meditate, the more we get in our own way. True meditation is instead about the practice of allowing—releasing effort, relaxing the mind, and gently returning to the present moment.
