Utilizing insights from a new wave of biologists and neurologists, this exploration delves into how we can overcome current cultural and societal crises. It presents a novel biological understanding of the human organism, positing that we possess five brains, with the fifth located in the heart. The text emphasizes that transcending our existing behaviors, thoughts, and beliefs necessitates the dynamic interaction between our fourth brain (intellect) and fifth brain (intelligence). It reflects on historical figures like Jesus and Buddha as models of nature's potential and our capacity for transcendence. The author questions why humanity remains entrenched in a culture of violence and injustice, despite recognizing the transcendent ideals embodied by these figures. By examining our neural organization, the work addresses how we can surpass our evolutionary limitations. The latest research identifies our five neural centers, highlighting the importance of the interaction between the head brain and heart brain. This interplay of intellect and intelligence fosters transcendence, while cultural influences from childhood can hinder this process, trapping us in crises of violence. However, the author reassures us that transcendence is our biological imperative, a state we have been progressing toward for millennia.

Magical Child, a classic work, profoundly questioned the current thinking on childbirth pratices, parenting, and educating our children. Now its daring ideas about how Western society is damaging our children, and how we can better nurture them and ourselves, ring truer than ever. From the very instant of birth, says Joseph Chilton Pearce, the human child has only one concern: to learn all that there is to learn about the world. This planet is the child's playground, and nothing should interfere with a child's play. Raised this way, the Magical Child is a happy genius, capable of anything, equipped to fulfill his amazing potential. Expanding on the ideas of internationally acclaimed child psychologist Jean Piaget, Pearce traces the growth of the mind-brain from birth to adulthood. He connects the alarming rise in autism, hyperkinetic behavior, childhood schizophrenia, and adolescent suicide to the all too common errors we make in raising and educating our children. Then he shows how we can restore the astonishing wealth of creative intelligence that is the birthright of every human being. Pearce challenged all our notions about child rearing, and in the process challenges us to re-examine ourselves. Pearce's message is simple: it is never too late to play, for we are all Magical Children.

This classic work profoundly influences a generation with its insights into the nature of mind and reality. It defines culture as a "cosmic egg," shaped by the mind's need for logical order. The author offers techniques for individuals to break free from logic-based systems, facilitating expanded creative living and learning. Our understanding of the world forms a shell of rational thought, which can trap us in a cycle of reasoning that diminishes our mental power and hinders our potential. Escaping this cycle requires focus and centering, which modern society often disrupts. Drawing on the ideas of thinkers like Teilhard, Tillich, Jung, and Jesus, the author presents a way of thinking that allows imagination to transcend the limitations of current reality and progress toward a new phase of human evolution. This popular New Age classic re-emerges to challenge a new generation, encouraging the development of potential through innovative modes of thought. With a compelling synthesis of recent findings in physics, biology, and psychology, it uncovers the profound connection between mind and reality, revealing nature's blueprint for a self-transcending humanity.

"Connection Parenting" is based on author Pam Leo's seven week parenting series, "Meeting the Needs of Children," that she has been teaching for over sixteen years. The premise is that a strong parent-child bond is the key to children's optimal human development and our most effective parenting tool. Connection Parenting is a proactive approach to parenting that supports parents and caregivers in creating and maintaining the strong bonds children need to thrive.

A joyous account of a progressive family's homeschooling experience. Acting on their conviction that to educate a child well is to enable her to find her destiny, David Albert and his partner Ellen listened carefully, with respect and with love, to how their children expressed their own learning needs. Leaving traditional homeschooling methods behind, they followed their daughters' unique knowledge quests-from astronomy and botany, to opera and mythology-and then went about finding the resources and opportunities to meet those needs within their community. Gracefully written, And the Skylark Sings with Me passionately illustrates that real learning is much richer and more mysterious than any school can encompass.

In his groundbreaking bestseller, the author confirmed that music has the power to soothe the soul and heal the body. He now provides essential guidance for parents and educators to understand music as a vital aid to growth, development, and mental and physical health in children. Research indicates that prenatal exposure to music enhances visual tracking and coordination in babies, while another study found that first graders receiving music instruction and visual arts training caught up academically with their peers, even excelling in math. Music has been proven to stimulate a child's brain, nourish their spirit, and strengthen their body, even before birth. Offering your child the gift of music helps them reach their emotional and intellectual potential and unlocks areas of mental awareness and creativity. The author demonstrates that music can improve children's language, movement, and emotional skills at home, school, and play. He presents dynamic ways for parents and teachers to engage a child's imagination through music, with simple exercises and fun activities for various age groups, from prenatal to age ten. The book serves as an invaluable resource for parents, grandparents, and educators, providing practical and profound ideas to bond with newborns and foster good study habits and stress reduction for elementary students. With informed and compassionate guidance, you can help the child in your life aspire, achieve,

Kniha Mezi myslí a srdcem Josepha Chiltona Pearce, autora bestselleru Magické dítě, přestavuje inteligenci srdce, napojenou na prefrontální mozkovou kůru, jako protiváhu ke kalkulujícímu intelektu nižšího mozku. Příroda s námi má velké plány, které však zůstávají nenaplněny. Kulturní tlaky nás svedly z cesty a péče i výchova, jaké bychom potřebovali, jsou už po generace zapomenuty. Zůstáváme tak v zajetí falešného světa a ve vleku sobeckého plazího mozku, který se soustřeďuje pouze na vlastní přežití. Mezi potenciální a skutečnou realitou vznikly „podivné smyčky“, jejichž výsledkem je nekonečný koloběh katastrof a společenských krizí, které si náš moderní svět sám způsobuje. Pearce vysvětluje, že pokud se chceme z tohoto koloběhu vymanit, musíme se znovu propojit se soucitnou inteligencí srdce. Svůj výklad opírá o množství různorodých materiálů: analyzuje neurologické výzkumy, studuje dávno ztracené i dodnes fungující pečující kultury, předkládá své osobní zkušenosti i odkazy na život a dílo osobností, jako jsou Charles Darwin, Maria Montessori, Rudolf Steiner a další. Ukazuje, že aktivováním původního matrixu srdce a mysli – který je hnací silou naší duchovní evoluce i naším spojením s vesmírem – můžeme naučit mozek novým způsobům myšlení, vykročit ze začarovaného kruhu destruktivního chování a vstoupit do budoucnosti ve znamení míru, duchovního propojení a vědomé evoluce.
