“Eileen delivers a new perspective on the burnout crisis with humor, good sense, and unique ideas on how to manage our brains. I owe my daily well-being to her. Keep this book at your side to help you glide through your workday.” –Marcia Reynolds, PsyD, author of The Discomfort Zone

It’s official. For the first time, the World Health Organization has classified burnout as a health problem. Renowned motivational speaker Eileen McDargh proposes that to tackle it, we must learn to break out of energy-draining thoughts and behaviors.

Resilience, she argues, is strictly a matter of energy management–by better managing your energy, you can both build resiliency and overcome burnout. Breakthrough happens when our energy is consciously distributed to what matters most in our lives. So after a short survey that will tell you where you fit in a burnout and resiliency profile, McDargh helps pinpoint the causes of your burnout and examine the energy demands that keep you from refueling and recharging. She provides an in-depth energy analysis and gives you the keys to master the four dimensions that can give you a resilience breakthrough: head, heart, hands, and humor.

McDargh guides the reader through the process of identifying energy drains and implementing strategies for handling them, whatever phase of life you are in. Her intention is to help you not only to successfully manage work and life demands but also make even larger strides in understanding how to put together a life by design and not by default.

Develop your innate intuition, deepen your connection to the energy flow of the universe, and manifest your heart’s desires using the power of your own electromagnetic field by diving deeply into the spiritual science of auras, the colorful energy fields that surround each and every one of us.

A fresh take on auras from a medical intuitive who has been working with energy on a quantum level for over twenty years. Take a deep dive into the history and science of auras with this in-depth guide, learning not just what the colors of auras mean and how to see them in yourself and others, but how to raise the frequency of your own aura and those of others and use that knowledge to manifest your best life, filled with harmony and abundance.

This books dives profoundly into the truth of complete interconnection in the universe and the living electromagnetic fields around all living things, which we call auras. In essence, the study and awareness of auras is an opening to feel the connection between all life. It also encourages and necessitates opening the clairvoyant and other intuitive senses to feel, taste, smell, touch, see, and hear auras and perceive them in new and expanded ways. These experiences allow the reader to open mind and heart to the universal life force that comprises all existence.
