Customer Reviews

Very thought provoking.

The diversity of essays allows one to consider several ineresting means of traveling a spiritual journey.

Great place to begin.

This book is a great place to begin if you want to change up or even begin your spiritual practice(s). I highly recommend this book for newbies and those who are pros in the area of spiritual practice because it shows you first hand accounts written in their own words, of people who used/use these ideas. Very creative and worth the purchase for people of all religions and paths.

Don't Pass on This Book

A wonderful collection of ideas to help you implement spirituality into your life. There are several chapters that provide ideas on how one might include spirituality into daily living. Not every idea is going to appeal to every person, but there is enough variety and depth that everyone should come away with helpful ideas. This book is especially appropriate for persons who are willing to consider other avenues to spiritual living besides only Christianity.
