Return to Essence: How to Be in the Flow and Fulfill Your Life's Purpose
Author: Gina Lake
Publisher: Gina Lake
ISBN: 0615141196
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 184
Book Description
Return to Essence describes how to get into the flow and stay there and how to live life from there. Being in the flow and not being in the flow are two very different states. One is dominated by the ego-driven mind, which is the cause of suffering, while the other is the domain of essence, the divine within each of us. We are meant to live in the flow. The flow is the experience of essence--our true self--as it lives life through us and fulfills its purpose for this life. You will learn: - What the flow is, how it feels, and what you find there - How the ego/mind and conditioning keep you out of the flow - How to get back into the flow - How action, talking, knowing, and choosing come out of the flow - How to discover where the flow is going - How to find and fulfill your life's purpose. Exercises throughout provide an opportunity for practicing and integrating the understanding.

Pages : 178
Book Description
IN THIS LUMINOUS MEMOIR, LEGENDARY SINGER AND ACTRESS NATALIE COLE TELLS A REMARKABLE STORY OF LIFE-THREATENING ILLNESS AND RECOVERY, AND THE STORY OF A DEATH THAT BROUGHT NEW LIFE. In 2009 Natalie Cole was on dialysis, her kidneys failing. Without a kidney transplant, her future was uncertain. Throughout Natalie’s illness one of her biggest supporters was her beloved sister Cooke. But then Cooke herself became ill, with cancer. Astonishingly, as Cooke lay dying in a hospital, Natalie received a call that a kidney was available, but the surgery had to be performed immediately. Natalie couldn’t leave her sister’s side—but neither could she refuse the kidney that would save her own life. This is a story of sisters, Natalie and Cooke, but also of the sisters who made the transplant possible, Patty and Jessica. It was Jessica’s death that gave new life to Natalie, even as Natalie experienced the devastating loss of Cooke. Patty, too, suffered her own terrible loss, but when she met Natalie, she found that her sister’s spirit still lived. Through the gift of life, Natalie and Patty became sisters in spirit. Love Brought Me Back is a story of loss and recovery, sorrow and joy, success and despair—and, finally, success again. It will touch you as few memoirs ever have.
