We are so delighted and pleased that three of our books have been chosen for Nautilus book awards this year!

Previous Nautilus award winners have been Jean Houston, Lama Marut, Tami Lynn Kent, Jon Gabriel, and Sarah Stillman.

This year awards went to the following Beyond Words titles:

Leap of Perception by Penny Peirce: The 2014 Nautilus Silver Award

With a growing holistic view of the universe and a greater awareness of personal collective energy, we are experiencing a global shift from the Information Age to the Intuition Age. In the ever-increasing pace of modern culture, we are beginning to perceive the world and ourselves in a radically new way—changing from the physical form to a greatly expanded awareness that includes tapping into our intuition easily, being in the past and present simultaneously, balancing the right and left brains, and aligning heart and body.

Writing to Wake the Soul by Karen Hering: The 2014 Nautilus Silver Award

This is a book about words, but it’s equally about what pulses beneath them, what lies between the lines. It opens a path to the inner self and to the timeless wisdom deep within. By focusing on ten key spiritual words, Hering provides an elegant practice for readers to explore a greater intimacy with their spirituality, their soul, and their world.

Healing with the Arts by Michael Samuels, MD and Mary Rockwood Lane, PhD: The 2014 Nautilus Silver Award

Through art projects—including visual arts, dance, writing, and music—along with spiritual practices and guided imagery, Healing With the Arts gives readers the tools to heal physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual ailments.

So there you have it, 2014 has been an excellent year for Beyond Words so far! You can of course read more information about each award winning title and their authors on our site.
