 Hand Pulling Carrot Out of Ground


Grow To Survive:

Building a Self-Sufficient Garden Using What You Have 


Food security is no longer optional—it’s essential.

Grow to Survive is a practical, no-nonsense guide to building a survival and homestead garden using what you already have. Whether you live in an apartment, a suburban neighborhood, or on rural land, this book shows you how to grow real food with limited money, limited space, and uncertain resources.

Inside, you’ll learn how to turn natural materials, refurbished items, and everyday “waste” into productive garden systems. From rain-catchment and DIY irrigation to recycled raised beds, vertical gardens, and off-grid food production, this book offers multiple setups and flexible designs for every situation and climate.

Unlike traditional gardening books, Grow to Survive focuses on resilience—high-calorie crops, fast harvests, perennial food sources, seed saving, natural pest control, and long-term storage. You’ll find options for emergency gardens, mobile gardens, and full homestead systems, along with strategies to protect your food supply through drought, shortages, or disruptions.

Whether you’re preparing for uncertain times, building self-sufficiency, or simply wanting to grow food more sustainably, this book gives you the knowledge and confidence to start—right where you are.

No perfection required.
No expensive tools needed.
Just the will to grow and survive.

A Medical Doctor Should Never Say That...:

Itinerary of an AIDS specialist


35 million people are still infected by the HIV virus across the globe, despite undeniable scienti c progress. In France, 140,000 people are currently diagnosed HIV-positive, while 30,000 are unknowingly infected. In the words of Dr. Alain Lafeuillade, author of a work intended to shake up our certainties and take a critical look at France's public institutions, "The War Is Not Over". The title of "A Medical Doctor Should Never Say That!" is no coincidence. Dr. Lafeuillade's resolutely irreverent character even earned him an arrest. Faithful to his convictions, he was nicknamed "The Outsider" by Parisian peers astonished at his audacity: a local hospital doctor who organizes international conventions in Toulon, then Marseille and Miami, attended by acclaimed specialists such as Professor Robert Gallo, the co- discoverers of the HIV virus, Bob Siliciano and many other "VIPs" in the eld...This surprising book offers readers a y-on-the-wall plunge into the daily struggle of an MD.

Astara is Born: Under the Hollywood Sign…the Quantum Novel

 Purple Gear in the throws of Time


Quantum narrative of the 80s indie film/New Age zeitgeist. This is the second volume in the Kundalini Awakening trilogy following “Champagne Tango” (1992) and preceding “Wolf in the Bottle”. There will be a promotion on NetGalley in April. A reluctant Icon tries out her new name Astara Dawn on an irresistible English actor while stuck in a holding pattern on a flight into Los Angeles. Awaiting her on the ground is a Hollywood studio sublet filled with mystical books and a freelance job as a script reader. As she settles into her new home and starts to explore the city, Astara stumbles into the zeitgeist of 1980s New Age Movement and the birth of a dynamic new Hollywood era of the indie film.

Astara’s freelance lifestyle is guided by a universal vision—to become the writer, director, producer, and star of her own movie. However, she learns that outer success in achieving this goal is predicated by the inner process of awakening; as Astara begins to see herself as the heroine of her original Hollywood story, she is rewarded with an evolving consciousness guiding her into a quantum reality: consciousness becoming aware of itself. This is where the new quantum era of the transformative novel comes in play. The quest for freedom busts through all existing categories…forcing the protagonist to invent a new literature chronicling an ever-evolving consciousness. As she pushes through obstacles with the help of a healer, she begins to understand the affliction propelling her to the edge of psychosis was actually a kundalini awakening. The awareness of the Self gains a new holistic perspective on the dynamic between inner and outer informed by a steady trail of synchronicities providing a linear structure to her creation of her new identity summed up in the title of her script, “Astara is Born.” Surmounting the obstacles on the path of Self-mastery has a requirement: newly defining the contemporary literary heroine as Bringer of the Dawn, filtering the new value of an evolving consciousness sourced in the twenty-first century icon of the hieros gamos (sacred marriage). Kundalini Awakening trilogy of meta-novels pioneer a quantum style of storytelling in which a female protagonist becomes aware of her evolving consciousness, a higher form of intelligence scientists now refer to as metacognition.

An Intuitive Healers View:

Stories of Trusting Guidance and Lessons Learned


Learn to Bypass Painful Spiritual Lessons: Follow Your Intuition and Stand in Your Power

This book is a collection of personal stories and the insights I've gained from my hard-won victories for inner growth and healing. Throughout my life, I have often learned valuable lessons the hard way. However, these experiences have ultimately allowed me to help others heal and grow. These stories express the importance of listening to your intuition, which demonstrates what can happen when you follow its guidance and when you do not. They also highlight the importance of protecting your energy and standing in your own power.

These experiences, along with any examples provided, are spiritual in nature and have been revealed to me through clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, claircognizance, and signs from my guides and loved ones who have passed on. Maintaining an open mind is essential to appreciating the importance of listening to your inner voice and following its guidance.

Flourish: Living Out The Fruit Of The Spirit

 Several Fruits some cut in half


What does it really mean to walk in the Spirit?

In Flourish, Jesse Lucas takes readers beyond surface-level understanding into the heart of transformation that only the Holy Spirit can bring. Drawing from Galatians 5 and connecting it to everyday life, this book explores how each fruit, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, can flourish in the soil of surrender.

Through vivid storytelling, practical insight, and a tone that feels more like a conversation than a lecture, Jesse shows that the fruit of the Spirit isn’t something we strive to produce, it’s what grows naturally when we stay connected to the Source.

Each chapter offers wisdom that challenges and encourages, guiding readers to reflect, apply, and live out the gospel in real, tangible ways. Perfect for personal devotion, small group study, or church discipleship, 
Flourish will help you not only understand these qualities, but become them.

Grow deeper. Live fuller. Bear fruit that lasts.
