“David, thank you. This is very clear and sensible.… I appreciate that you have the gift to fully articulate how crating a sacred space occurs. In the past, I have been told to simply "ground the energies" or to "own the new way." Maybe I am dense, or maybe just too literal in the way I receive instruction, but simplistic or trite phrases go right over my head.

Crafting Relationships explores ideas of "co-incarnation," the ways in which we may hold and empower others and in that process enhance our own incarnations. It investigates the "chalice" of relationships, the way in which together we create conditions that can hold energy and consciousness in new ways. It examines the energetic or "subtle" side of relationship and relationship as an expression of an incarnational dynamic.

All of this might be called the energy work of relationship and in particular the concept and techniques of blessing. This book looks at what it means to love, not simply as an emotional affection or attachment but as a spiritual act.

This book originated from the transcript of an online class by David Spangler called Crafting Relationships: The Holding of Others.

“David, you said: ‘The point is that individuality is not lost or subsumed; it's expanded and made more complex and fluid through participation and sharing.’

Yes, that's exactly what emerges for my clients--and it emerges from their own growing sense of the complexity that their incarnation is composed of, which ultimately enhances their experience of their sovereignty. It's not an experience of merging or oneness, which is a different kettle of fish. Thanks for articulating this so clearly. ”

This book seeks to place the emerging worldview of the Incarnational way in context with other more established worldviews. It develops a core spiritual exercise called "Embodying Eden" and showcases other foundational incarnational practices. It starts with a short story and concludes by highlighting how an incarnational perspective can be applied in practical ways towards manifestation, healing, collaborations and blessing.

"The Incarnational Way has needed a good introduction for many years, and Jeremy Berg is exactly the right person to write it.  He has explored and lived its principles and practices and has been instrumental in its development.  He combines wisdom and experience and his own unique understanding with a down-to-earth writing style that makes this book both rich and accessible.  I highly recommend it and am very grateful it exists."

This Deck has 27 cards, 16 of which symbolically represent the process by which the Soul takes incarnation and the generic stages by which many things take form. These core "Stage Cards" may be used as visual aids to assist in your incarnational work, inner attunements and spiritual practice. The 11 other cards represent Principles and Conditions. When these are added to the Stage cards, an oracular deck is created which can give a "snapshot" of your incarnation. Tapping into a source of intuition and inner perception in this way may help you in the manifestation of projects. The cards are 3.25" X 4.75" in size, and are accompanied by a 136 page manual of instructions and exercises.

This memoir is an account of Geoffrey Oelsner's continuing education with experiences that defy rational explanation, but point toward a more holistic, interconnected Reality than we normally perceive. It sets forth a vision of our intimate relationship with Nature, and offers scientific evidence as well as personal anecdotes to support the thesis that we can influence the natural world positively through attunement, meditation, prayer, intention, loving presence, mindful ritual, celebration, song, dance, and other expressions of joyful creativity.

Geoffrey Oelsner has been actively addressing community health and environmental issues for thirty-five years, as a community organizer in Georgia and Arkansas; while engaged with others in anti-nuclear research and activism; as co-author of a book about natural forms of radiation protection; and most recently working to alert the public and public health officials to the environmental hazards of "fracking" for subterranean natural gas deposits. He is convinced that we can help sustain and restore environmental harmony through our loving interactions with the natural world in a way that complements such necessary and important political work.
