Books with author Robert Burns

Amid personal turmoil and wretched economic conditions in Sweden, Johan and Anna left for America in 1867. As peasant farmers with five children, they were willing to give up the familiar at home for the unseen abroad, to abandon the poverty they had inherited for a prosperity they hoped to find on their own. They sought a future, not a fortune, and the search took them on a 33-year odyssey across rural America, from Minnesota to west-central Iowa and northeast Nebraska, and finally to the shores of Puget Sound. Along the way, they faced disease, death and disappointments in a 19th century rural America unfamiliar to today's generation. Their odyssey offers timeless lessons in the value of family cohesion and the meaning of home.

Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls has been called "one of the truly transformational works of our time" - and it's author Robert Burney referred to as "a metaphysical Stephen Hawking." This joyously inspirational Spiritual book presents a set of beliefs about the meaning and purpose of life from a Cosmic Perspective that combines Twelve Step Recovery Principles, Native American Spirituality, and Ancient Metaphysical Truths. It explains why a New Age has dawned in human consciousness on planet Earth and explores the interrelationship between subjects that range from the Bible, Buddha, and Jesus to quantum physics, molecular biology, and AIDS. The belief system the book is based upon is exemplified by this quote from The Dance of Wounded Souls: "We are not sinful, shameful human creatures who have to somehow earn Spirituality. We are Spiritual Beings having a human experience. We are here to experience and learn, to Touch and to feel." A counselor/coach and Spiritual Teacher whose work has been compared to John Bradshaw's "except much more spiritual" and described as "taking inner child healing to a new level" - Robert has developed a unique approach to emotional healing that is the next level of recovery from codependency so many people on a healing / spiritual path have been seeking. He has pioneered an inner child healing paradigm that offers a powerful, life changing formula for integrating Love, Spiritual Truth, and intellectual knowledge of healthy behavior into one's emotional experience of life - a blueprint for individuals to transform their core relationship with self and life.Robert, whose work is firmly grounded on twelve step recovery principles and emotional energy release / grief process therapy, specializes in teaching individuals how to become empowered to have internal boundaries so they can learn to relax and enjoy life in the moment while healing. It is the unique approach and application of the concept of internal boundaries, coupled with a Loving Spiritual belief system, that make the work so innovative and effective. This is a life-changing, life-affirming book."I have been one of the lucky people to read your sensational book! . . . This book is truly a masterpiece. . . Wouldn't it be great if every living being on the planet read this book? Global transformation!""There is much joy expressed in this book. We are given an opportunity to change the dance from one of suffering and endurance to one of celebration and appreciation. Robert's words will move and inspire you""I am a 52 year old psychotherapist and have struggled with codependency all my life. Up until tonight I have been disappointed in the literature and treatment of codependency. Your work is brilliant! I can't find words to express my appreciation with the depth I am feeling.""Your writing is more insightful and instructive for change than Bradshaw and Melody Beattie of codependence no more. Pia Melody's pretty good but you're more broad thinking in concepts and more compassionate too.”"When I found your book, I found myself."“ . . . your perspective on philosophy, spirituality and psychology is really unique. I've read and listened to many spiritual people, but I've never found someone who combines love, acceptance and humor in such a profound manner." "I find it very exciting that you have brought the whole definition of codependence to this spiritual level, where I can much more relate to it's truth."“I have read and studied many authors on this healing journey of mine but you really relate to all of my issues like no one else. I have read over 300 books in the past few years but you explain everything in simple but yet so enlightening truths. God bless you and you are making a difference to many. Oprah needs to read your work." "This book is an affirmation of your true nature: love. I gratefully recommend it."
