Navigating Life: Commonsense Reflections for the Voyage (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781974403899)

Plenty of books describe and offer steps toward mindfulness, or simply put, awareness of your inner state and surroundings without making judgments about them. All of the reflections in this book are based on everyday experiences and ways you can use them to become more mindful and more peaceful.

Life is an adventure. You can ignore it and let life's winds blow you where they will. You can complain about the trip. Or you can embrace your travels and make the best of them. I can't help you with the first two choices. If you choose the third option I have some provisions for your journey.

I will share with you suggestions for how you can better appreciate life. I also have some thoughts about how people choose to conduct their lives. Spirituality to me means "Awakening to the goodness and joy for which you were created." Following are reflections on how to live a spiritual life in this sense.

We have some extraordinary powers as humans. I offer you some thoughts on how to use them. We are social beings and, like it or not, live in society. I also offer some thoughts about how to manage social life. We are creatures with feelings. Here are some ways to make good use of them. We all have talents and I have some ideas about putting them to good use. Life can be stressful but you can use it to move ahead rather than let stress paralyze you.
