Another option is a book called Anchor in the spirit by Phyllis T. Reid. It differentiates the spiritual and non-spiritual in easy to understand ways - something that was useful for me as I'm as green as green can be to this! And it's not just religious hogwash either. It makes sense... Holy sense.
