With spacious insight, playful humor, and engaging prose, From Illness to Stillness is a journey towards true freedom, liberation and authentic well-being. Part memoir, spiritual inquiry, and exposé of mainstream Western medicine, From Illness to Stillness points to the root causes of many disorders, highlighting a truly holistic vision of wellness. As I attempted to come to terms with bodily illness, something intrinsic was discovered. I realized that we all share this underlying inner quest for freedom, from ignorance to wisdom. Some are okay with just living life, trying to get ahead and some feel very drawn to probe the depths. All will eventually hear the call, for the ring is eternal. And when that call comes, it may be subtle like a whisper or one may feel like they are moving down Niagara Falls in a barrel. In this book, I weave threads of the mystical and the ordinary, sharing insights garnered through spiritual practice and cutting edge holistic modalities and treatments. Your traveling companions and guides throughout the book are earnestness and spiritual truth. The book is written in a way that points one beyond the mind-body idea, and reveals the futility of searching for objects and external things outside of one's Self. The authentic spiritual path to awakening and realization is highlighted throughout, revealing the pitfalls and obstacles that many sincere aspirants encounter. The book does not stop with initial awakening but goes further, sharing the nuances and ever-deepening expanse of consciousness. The Search for Immortality, often referred to as liberation, enlightenment, or Self-realization is the true purpose of all human life. Through insights shared within the book, difficult events can be reframed, so that life's intensities can be seen as gifts and blessings. Divine grace is always operating, at the heart of all circumstances and events, but much of the time we do not feel or realize this. With a background as a yoga teacher, health coach, massage therapist, acupuncturist and end of life caregiver, I offer an intimate and unique perspective for the reader. Those immersed on the conscious spiritual path, interested in yoga, meditation, or holistic health, and all those interested in authentic spirituality of the Eastern lands, like: India, Thailand and China will find much to support them. I draw from insight, research, direct experience and numerous spiritual teachers, saints, healers, and medical and naturopathic doctors, interspersing their wisdom throughout the book. Revelations from Buddhism, Yoga, Advaita Vedanta, and Chinese Medicine and other non-dual spiritual teachings are highlighted as well. Awakening Christians and those of any religious affiliation who treasure unity consciousness will also find much to nourish them in these pages.
