Neuware - > The journey I've been on has ended up being enlightening, inspirational, and life changing. Despite my initial doubts, the efforts I set in motion to push back boundaries and unlock doors have brought me tremendous rewards personally. Even though not every experience I have had has been totally positive, and not everything I have read or been told has been credible, along the way I have had truly amazing experiences, made deep friendships, enjoyed countless provocative conversations, and spent hour after hour engrossed in what I have been reading or witnessing. The people I've come to know, either in person or through their writings, have taught me so much and enriched my life in so many ways. And for this I owe so much to so many. In sum, not only am I a happier, healthier, more peaceful, and more loving person now, but also my eyes have been opened to a whole new way of living-not to mention a whole new way of way of looking at our existence in this miraculous universe of ours. Many of the ideas and practices I have been introduced to, ones that seemed so wrong-headed in the beginning, I now accept as sound and valuable even though they often directly contradict what I grew up knowing to be the truth. Others have just added new dimensions and perspectives to the understandings I had so long ago. So, why have I put this story about my own personal journey to paper It's a question I've wrestled with myself. Certainly, writing a book was not my objective when I initially set out on my explorations, and I do sometimes wonder how what I have to say will be perceived by my more orthodox friends and readers. But people who open their minds to the vast possibilities outside the boundaries of conventional wisdom and talk seriously of such things in the here and now are sometimes taken with a grain of salt. I do hope that will not be the case with me. I see my work as both enlightening and significant. Also, I am perfectly happy with my life just the way it is without being the author of this book. Not only have I always been blessed career-wise, but also, I am in excellent health, have great friends, and am married to the world's best husband, James Roger Sharp, a well-known American historian and author of important studies on the birth of the nation and its development in the Jacksonian period. And Roger and I have a loving family, including a son, daughter, daughter-in-law, and four grandchildren. It certainly was not my intention to debunk conventional ideas, most of which I am in complete agreement with anyway. Although over the years, I have learned about, experienced, and been impressed by a number of alternative healing techniques, that does not mean that I am not a fan of Western medicine as well. In fact, my own personal experience with allopathic medicine has been superb. In addition to not wanting to discredit conventional ideas, I have not written this book to sell anyone on specific alternative ideas or approaches. It is not my goal to persuade others to follow in my specific footsteps. Far from it. I see my path as mine and mine alone. Although I've spent more than a quarter century tirelessly exploring the multifaceted out-of-the-mainstream world, I only want to tell my story as accurately and entertainingly as possible. But it is my experience and my story. I am definitely not in any position to endorse anything I've learned about, experienced myself, or witnessed someone else .…

Far Out is not a book to debunk conventional ideas. But over the years I have learned about, experienced, and been impressed by a number of alternative healing techniques. Over time, I became so intrigued with things alternative that I was impelled to learn more and more about them. Even so, I have done so cautiously, never abandoning the skepticism and tough questions that were the hallmarks of my career as a reporter and writer for newspapers in Missouri, California, Washington D.C. and New York.
The journey I've been on has ended up being enlightening, inspirational, and life changing. Despite my initial doubts, the efforts I set in motion to push back boundaries and unlock doors have brought me tremendous rewards personally. Even though not every experience I have had has been totally positive, and not everything I have read or been told has been credible, along the way I have had truly amazing experiences, made deep friendships, enjoyed countless provocative conversations, and spent hour after hour engrossed in what I have been reading or witnessing. The people I've come to know, either in person or through their writings, have taught me so much and enriched my life in so many ways. And for this I owe so much to so many.
In sum, not only am I a happier, healthier, more peaceful, and more loving person now, but also my eyes have been opened to a whole new way of living-not to mention a whole new way of way of looking at our existence in this miraculous universe of ours. Many of the ideas and practices I have been introduced to, ones that seemed so wrong-headed in the beginning, I now accept as sound and valuable even though they often directly contradict what I grew up knowing to be the truth. Others have just added new dimensions and perspectives to the understandings I had so long ago.
So, why have I put this story about my own personal journey to paper? It's a question I've wrestled with myself. Certainly, writing a book was not my objective when I initially set out on my explorations, and I do sometimes wonder how what I have to say will be perceived by my more orthodox friends and readers.

Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).

Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
