I'm particularly interested in the mind / body link, and also the EI / spiritual link - also the link between these two links!

So books that are frequently leafed through on my bookshelf (plus a couple of dvd's) are:

The Inner Game of Tennis
Applied EI :-)
Molecules of Emotion
You Can Heal Your Life
Conversations with God (non-religious exploring non-judgment)
Heart of the Soul

For the concept of the law of attraction:

Ask and It Will Be Given (how our thoughts and feelings create our reality)
The Secret (dvd)
What the Bleep Do We Know? (dvd)

[Maureen Bowes]

One of my favourite books on EI is The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupery. (It was one of James Dean's favourite books too.) From it come the quote "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye."
