JärjejuttʼIḥsān ʻAbd el-Quddūs, "Ärge jätke mind siia üksi". Postimehe kirjastuselt.Tragikoomilise „Ärge jätke mind siia üksi!“ tegevus toimub 1940.–1960. aastate lõbujanulises ja poliitilistest intriigidest pulbitsevas islamimaailma kultuuripealinnas Kairos. Peategelaseks on judaismist islamisse üle läinud Lucy-nimeline naisterahvas: emalikust armastusest, kuid ka naiselikest kapriisidest pakatav juuditar, kes ühiskondliku staatuse ja raha järel tormates kogeb nii võite kui kaotusi, õnne ja hingeahastust.

Chris Kala Podcast#244 Raivo Juhanson vaimse impeeriumi loomisest, varjukülje teadlikkusest ja rikkusest läbi oma väeRaivo Juhanson on olnud pikaajaline ettevõtja, jooga ja meditatsiooni õpetaja ning enesearengu nõustaja. 90-ndatel alustas ta esmakordselt ettevõtlusega ning oli pikalt seotud kinnisvaraäriga. Vaatamata sellele, et ta oli saavutanud selle, mida oli elult soovinud, painas teda siiski sisemine ärevus ja rahulolematus. Vaimsesse maailma suhtus Raivo algselt suure skeptitsismiga, kuid pooljuhuslikult avastas ta enda jaoks siiski enesearengu teekonna.
Ennast ise nimetab Raivo täna teadvuse treeneriks, sisemise väe ja potentsiaali aktiveerijaks, teadlikkuse ja inspiratsiooni koolitajaks, enesearengu nõustajaks.
Raivol on võime selgelt näha takistavaid alateadlikke uskumusi/ varje, mis segavad avanemast enda unikaalsele andele ja potentsiaal...
