Zapchen Practice
Resources
The best way
to learn the skills of self-regulation and self-responsibility
-- the basics of well-being -- is to do them over and over again
until they are so much a part of our fibre that they are virtually
impossible to forget. The resources listed below can help.
Good company is also important. See also
the other websites listed at the
bottom of this page for links to some of Julie's teachers and
also to Zapchen offerings by some of her students.

It is best for us if you send us the funds (in US$, of course)

Books
Bedtime Stories for Waking Up **EVEN NEWER!**
A new little book of, you guessed
it, bedtime stories. ($11 USA, $12 Int'l)
The Hum Book **NEW!**
Surprise, this book is entirely
about humming! How to hum more "inside" than "outside";
how to touch deep inside yourself with the pulse of the hum;
how to increase our intrinsic well-being by humming. Human beings
often express envy of cats' ability to purr. I am going to guess
that the sort of humming we talking about here is going to provide
many of the benefits that cats get out of purring. These benefits,
as it turns out, are simple, deep and easily accessible with
just a little practice. And this book is a simple, deep and easy
place to start. ($26 USA, $28 Int'l) read

Embodying Well-Being **revised and extended!**
This book is an introduction
to the simplest and most playful ways of restoring well-being.
Many of them are recognizable from childhood play. That is because
this level of care for ourselves is inherent in how we function.
They are simple, and they work. Beyond these most basic and effective
tools for being kind to ourselves, this book offers a glimpse
toward some very high peaks of perception indeed. ($25 USA, 20euros, A$29)
Int'l -- now available in Australia from Pete & Vas in Sydney, Hendrika in Melbourne, and directly from the publisher of the German edition.) read a little
The Lover Within
If you have ever felt energy
from a person or a situation, this book will reassure you that
you are not crazy. This exploration of energy and sexuality teaches
how to develop energetic skills (perceiving energy and energetic
exchange) in any relationship (sexual or not), including your
relationship with yourself. In seventy-eight
exercises that you can practice alone or with others, Julie gives
us the basics of a tantra adapted to the West. She teaches how
to create boundaries and how to merge. She talks about bad energetic
habits -- compression, diffusion, disappearance -- and how to
replace them with other habits that allow you to pulse and live
as an energetic being. ($20 USA,
$22 Int'l, now also available at Amazon.com)
I Ching: Revealing Story, Training
Mind
The purpose of this -- yet another!!!

too rigid or too self-indulgent. ($20 USA, $22 Int'l)
