the Law of Wholeness
• the Law of Flow
• the Law of Balance
• the Law of Limits
• the Law of Cause and Effect
• the Law of Planes
• the Law of Evolution

Greer explains each law, offering meditation, an affirmation, and a theme for reflection, to show how the seven laws can bring meaning and power into our everyday lives.
