Bøger af Mike Woodcock

Leaning Into Life is a book about discovery and acceptance. In this book Mike Woodcock shares his truth about stepping out of fear and blame and stepping into radical acceptance. "We have been culturally programmed to avoid pain and suffering, lean away from things that may make us sad, angry, and uncomfortable." Woodcock has learned that to fully express himself as spirit and as human he needs to embrace all things and accept whatever the Universe might provide. In Leaning Into Life, you take a journey from compassion to judgment, from fear to acceptance and arrive at the ultimate understanding that God is in everything and ever-present. The messages in this book are meant to be savored and pondered, read over and over on your journey to find your own meaning. Regarding compassion Woodcock writes, "To fully express compassion with an open heart we need to fully experience and move through our own pain, suffering and sorrow. We need the experience of compassion before we can express it. Our heart is broken open allowing us to be the vessel through which the God of Compassion breathes in and out." The author's spiritual path has meandered through, Baptist and Pentecostal churches, confirmed as an Episcopalian, through Transcendental Mediation meetings in the 1970's and clairvoyant training in the 1990's. He has been a practicing mediator for over twenty years and considers himself somewhat of a spiritual mongrel, spiritual, but not religious. Most recently his path has lead him to a spiritual community affiliated with Unity Worldwide Ministries. As a prayer chaplain in Unity of the Valley Spiritual Center in northern California, he was called to provide messages for weekly meditation services and Leaning Into Life is a easy to read, spiritually-insightful compilation of twenty of his most popular messages written down to be savored over and over again.
