Books
Reading is such a beautiful way to enhance our awareness. When choosing a book to read to read, perhaps meditate before choosing your next read (to allow for clarity). Or perhaps look for “signs” for what should be your next book venture. Also, keep in mind, sometimes we pick up a book to read and we are not yet “ready” for its messages. This happened to me when I went to read The Power of Now in 2012; but when I picked it up in 2018…perfect! Here are some books that have truly provided drops of wise awareness into my life…

The Enneagram is a fascinating systematic way to understand our motivational patterning. The work of bringing this to light began in the 4th Century and it has been distilled over the years by many people whose insight has shed much light on the workings of those motivational patterns.

Sitting in Presence Meditation
We live in a world where our attention is often focused on the past or the future. The only moment we ever have, though, is this moment right now. When we are able to Sit in Presence and engage this present moment, we begin to transform our experience with one drop of awareness at a time.
