Hello Friends,

Autumn is the perfect time to begin to turn inward as golden, burnt umber, and crimson leaves begin their winter journey of slumber, and regeneration. The following is an idea to inspire your inner trek this year .

Recently I posted about a wonderful opportunity that came my way, and I want to follow up with you.  I had the great pleasure of being interviewed for Sandie Sedgbeer’s No BS Spiritual Book Club!  Sandie interviews authors about the ten most influential spiritual books that have shaped their lives and their work.  What an insightful adventure! To re-read my all-time greatest ten books was a time-travel journey! As I re-explored each book, I remembered viscerally, emotionally and cognitively my exact place and mood when I first encountered it. Rereading these favorites so many years later, I could remember the powerful Aha! moments I experienced. I also uncovered layers of meaning I missed at a younger age. Current books, as well as my classic favorites, have joined this list.

I hope you want to join me in this and I encourage each of you to meander through your own exploration of your “ten best!” Doing this is a heart-expanding entry into a life-review!  Walk over to your bookshelf now and begin browsing…. 

 My list of Ten Best has been posted on Sandie’s website here:

I hope this adventure inspires you to move toward winter’s repose, to gather your books, curl up in a sunny window and begin to read.

Enjoy!
