| Detlef Wendler | | Prayer | | Discovering Healing Powers |
Autonomous prayer keeps us healthy and contributes to healing – that has even been scientifically proven. Prayer helps us get through difficult times, and improves both the quality of our life and enjoyment of it. It reduces stress, frees us from psychological dependency and fortifies us, and is a source of strength as we overcome destructive habits and thought patterns. But how do we find the right words for prayer in our own hearts? How do we develop prayer rituals and meditations that suit our unique personalities? |

| Antoinette Brem / Barbara Lehner | | Shibashi | | Experiencing Calm and Alertness |
Shibashi, also known as the eighteen exercises or postures of Qigong, is a moving meditation. Tense muscles relax, the flow of energy in the body is harmonized, and the mind becomes calmer and more alert. Shibashi links apparent opposites such as Eastern and Western spirituality, body and soul, heaven and earth, and awakens an inner perceptiveness for the healing presence of the divine. |
