PAUSE FOR THOUGHT by BBC Radio 2
Taken from Radio 2’s daily broadcast on the Chris Evans and Vanessa Feltz shows, this includes contributions from an eclectic mix of contributors from a wide range of faiths. People express themselves in slightly different ways according to their religions but what is more significant is what unites them, especially around such qualities as love and gratitude. There is a great deal here that will inspire and comfort everyone; they might be written by rabbis and priests, comedians and actors, but the views are expressed with the kindness and generosity that we treasure in the Cygnus community. Contributors include Rev Richard Coles, Father Brian D’Arcy and Rabbi Julia Neuberger. 176pp, 206 x 152 mm, Paperback, RRP £12.99

The Daily Promise provides 100 ways to feel happy about your life.

The modern world is so steeped in noise it is easy to lose awareness of sound. Our brains are powerfully programmed to respond to certain sounds, because sound is audible energy. In this book Lyz Cooper, co-founder of the Therapeutic Sound Association Research, introduces us to the power of music explaining how sound can be used for healing. It provides a bridge between our bodies, the world we live in and our innermost spiritual senses. Drums, singing bowls and the voice are examples of wonderful therapeutic tools.
