Synopses & Reviews
The personal narratives collected in this spiritual guide are woven together into themes, such as living authentically, the importance of play, finding one's power, loving relationships, and self-compassion. Many years of working with the dying have shown the authors that certain life lessons will always resurface until they are understood. The result of this discovery is a collection of practical and spiritual lessons, garnered from conversations with dozens of people, and arranged by theme into fourteen accessible chapters, such as "Lesson of Love" and "Lesson of Happiness."
