Here Are 30 Brilliant Books & Tools on Amazon That’ll Help You Grow Personally & Spiritually

The Yoga Deck, $14, Amazon

If you're looking to mix up your yoga routine, there's The Yoga Deck. It features 50 yoga poses and meditations on gorgeous cards that you can pick at random or arrange to create a new practice. "The instructions on each card are easy to follow and are extremely helpful by adding diagrams on the back of each move," one reviewer describes. There are also affirmations on the cards to help keep you centered and motivated.

Neurosculpting, $41, Amazon

Using modern neuroscience to back it up, Neurosculpting is an audio CD that offers a complete approach to effectively restructuring your brain for greater health, happiness, creativity, and compassion. It's centered around the idea that everyday stress produces a physical reaction, but with guided meditation and practice, you can control this — which helps you connect more with others, set limits, and live a more peaceful, productive life. Lisa Wimberger offers in-depth training that you can apply to any area of your life, and reviewers say, "There should be a 10 star choice because this audio program is truly that good."

I Am Here Now, $11, Amazon

If you have trouble setting aside time for mindfulness and/or journaling every day, I Am Here Now makes both of those things more accessible. It features exercises, meditations, coloring pages, and habit-breakers in a beautifully designed format that you'll look forward to every morning or evening. It will also help keep you rooted in the present, instead of focusing so much time on the past or future. "Filled with lots of fun mindfulness activities and information without it feeling like it's being drilled into your head," says one reviewer. "I love it."

Yoga Paws, $29, Amazon

Practice yoga anywhere and everywhere with Yoga Paws. Their compact and breathable design feels like a second skin, but these gloves and socks have a full layer of natural rubber that easily grip any surface — they're great to use on hard surfaces or concrete, but can easily function as a little extra security on a yoga mat. Basically, they're like an extremely portable mat that you wear, and they're available in four sizes and five colors. They also wick away moisture and are fantastic tools to allow anyone to practice yoga whenever and wherever they want to.

The Divine Matrix, $11, Amazon

My favorite thing about best-selling author Gregg Braden is that he is, first and foremost, a scientist. In his book The Divine Matrix, Braden explores peer-reviewed scientific experiments and discoveries that could shift the way we think about our bodies, the universe, and the way we heal. "Made me order 3 more of his books," says one reviewer. "The topics and scientific backing makes them so engaging and interesting." The basic concept of this book is intriguing: Everything is connected, we all hold the power to help heal the universe, and to heal within creates ripples that will heal those around you.

Not only is this DAWAY yoga mat non-toxic, eco-friendly, suitable for tall yogis, and affordable, but it has special alignment charts to ensure that your hands and feet are centered and symmetrical in all your poses.

BambooMN Finger Labyrinth, $30, Amazon

Made from 100 percent sustainable bamboo, this finger labyrinth is a great, highly-portable tool for meditation. The user traces the maze with his or her finger (or the included tools) to center the mind and focus their attention.

Undated Coloring Planner, $13, Amazon

I find it nearly impossible to focus inward when I've got dates and to-dos swarming around in my head. This undated planner has weekly and monthly pages as well as spots to jot down your appointments and goals. The best part, though, is that nearly every page has an intricate picture that you can color to cultivate creativity, mindfulness, and stress-relief. The thick card stock prevents bleeding, so you can use markers to create your own little pieces of art.

Roughly every single self-help book I've read (and I've read hundreds) mentions A Course In Miracles. This combined volume is a complete self-study spiritual thought system that teaches peace, forgiveness, and accessible spirituality.

SPACECARE Magnetic Zen Sand Garden, $30, Amazon

This SPACECARE box set is not your traditional Zen garden. Instead of regular sand, it uses high purity magnetic sand that interacts with the tools and included magnets so you can build stereoscopic patterns. Not only does it encourage creativity and help you focus your mind, but this adult play area (box included) is a great addition to any work desk when you feel the need to fidget.

Better Me: The Game Of Growth, $55, Amazon

A great way to build stronger personal relationships with friends and family is with this game — it harnesses the principles of positive psychology to encourage real-world actions of improvement, and it helps players connect through insightful reflection. Some of the questions include "is taking risk scary, exciting, or is both?" and all inspire deep conversations. One reviewer writes: "Great game! Created a discussion tonight with my daughter that I don’t know I would have ever had otherwise!"

Orthopedic Coccyx Seat Cushion, $30, Amazon

Even though it can be placed on any chair or couch, this orthopedic cushion has reviewers saying, "It’s so nice to be able to sit in the yoga position or meditation position so comfortably." That's because it's made from high-density memory foam that improves your posture and reduces pressure on the spine. It's even got a cut-out for your coccyx so you can sit straight, and it reacts to both your body type and temperature.

As his skepticism erodes, Weiss explains what this could mean for reincarnation as well as interconnectedness.

This essential oil diffuser by ArtNaturals has all the best features: a quiet ultrasonic mist, seven soft LED color options, a powerful 12-watt system that distributes aromatherapy to large rooms, and an auto-off function that keeps you safe when the water runs out. The coolest part, though, is that it also doubles as a tranquil sound machine. It's pre-programmed with six natural and calming sounds to block out machinery, barking dogs, traffic, and loud neighbors, so you can finally relax.

With prefaces by Oprah Winfrey and Maya Angelou, The Seat of the Soul is a highly-rated book by Gary Zukav that invites you to understand your own power as a human being. Using his scientist’s eye and philosopher’s heart, Zukav shows us that rather than manipulating the world around us, we can align our minds and our souls with it, so we can live our lives with purpose and meaning.

Chakras Incense, $13 (Pack of 3), Amazon

Available in seven different types, these incense sticks are Ayurvedically formulated to coincide with the Chakras. According to reviewers, "each incense stick smells different and yet all are appealing," and they burn for 60 minutes each. So whether you're looking to stimulate your root chakra with feelings of security or open up your throat chakra in order to better communicate, incorporate these into your yoga or meditation practice.

Law of Attraction Daily Planner, $30, Amazon

From the outside, it looks like every other planner, but the Law of Attraction daily planner is designed to help you become the best possible version of yourself — mentally, physically, and interpersonally. It utilizes tools and exercises like weekly and monthly feel-good lists, time management sections, gratitude journal prompts, a fold-out vision board, mind maps, habit trackers, and inspiring stickers.

Gaiam Muse, $249, Amazon

Ever wonder just how effective your meditation practice is? Gaiam Muse is a wearable headset that both helps you reach that state of peace, and documents it once you get there. It measures whether your mind is calm or active and reflects it using nature sounds. The headband even has brainwave-sensing technology that syncs up to an app so you can review your data, set goals, and build a deeply rewarding meditation practice. "Completely worth every single penny," says one reviewer, while another writes, "The headband improved the quality of meditation immediately due to the real-time feedback."

Its adjustable elastic band fits any size, and it can be used for all sorts of things including sleep, yoga, meditation, stress relief, relaxation, facial acupressure, and headache relief.

10% Happier, $11, Amazon

If you have trouble taming the incessant voice in your head, or you often let it get the better of you, 10% Happier is a must-read book. It's by Dan Harris, a journalist who had a nationally televised panic attack and realized something had to give. His journey into mindfulness includes a disgraced pastor, a mysterious self-help guru, a gaggle of brain scientists, and the realization that his so-called "greatest asset" (his thinking mind) was also the source of all his stress and anxieties.

ProSource Acupressure Mat And Pillow Set, $20, Amazon

The benefits of this acupressure mat are based on the same core concepts as Acupuncture, but given you can do it at home, it's way less of a hassle. The thousands of tiny spikes stimulate pressure points along your energy pathways, which increases circulation and releases endorphins in the brain. The result is lessened back and neck pain, an easier time getting to sleep, and in some cases, a deep meditative state. It comes with a free neck roll, and reviewers say it's "surprisingly amazing" how well it works.

Cards For Calm, $20, Amazon

This therapeutic game is meant for those who struggle with anxiety and negative thinking — it helps find new ways to deal with confrontation, encourages positive thinking, focuses your attention, and reduces stress. It can be played by one player or more, and contains a variety of question cards that work to pinpoint your underlying problems, along with answer cards that assist you in improving on those problems.

The Miracle Cube Timer, $14, Amazon

If you struggle with time management, you know how much your life could improve if you could master that timing. This Miracle Cube is more than a timer — it's a mindful way to keep track of reading, studying, brushing your teeth yoga, meditation, and other little tasks you tend to get lost within. Just set the timer down on a time, and the cube will go off when you're done. One reviewer credits this timer to his 4.0 average: "Studies prove that mental retention drops significantly after 25-30 minutes and continues to decline. However, in only 5 minutes of genuine break (actual fun, fresh air, etc) that removes the mind temporarily from the subject and receives endorphins from something the student 'actually' wants to do, is enough time for a complete mental recharge. This cube made such practice, practical."
