Synopsis

Awake at 3 a.m.? Again!? Overwhelmed with fear and anxiety, troubled by confusion and dismay over how you reacted during your day to everyday moments? Are you feeling emotions, but not able to identify or articulate the feelings that gnaw at you when you find yourself saying or doing things that don’t fit what you want to say or do? Most of us have those feelings. And we rarely have the words to sort them out much less empower them to lead us to a higher road of understanding and appreciation. We’re more likely to ignore them, giving them even more power over us instead of acknowledging and letting go. And we’re even less likely to see the beauty in them or in their lessons. Paula Gardner has drawn from your heart and mine the words to express those feelings and "wrap these fears in wonder" by putting them in the form of prayer poems that acknowledge and then retool the fears to let us see their underbelly of beauty...and wonder. Whatever Higher Power you pray to, or whatever Universal worship you might enjoy, these prayers will bring you a sense of peace and wonder that comes from reframing your fear and seeing it through the lens of the gift that you receive each time you choose to read one of these beautiful prayers. You’ll find yourself in love rather in despair. In fact, you’ll find enough here to last you a lifetime, for your insights will grow and expand with each reading and lead you to an ever-deepening appreciation of your heart, your mind, and your spirit. Let these prayers lift you heavenward, for that is their purpose. Let Ms. Gardner’s words draw you into your heart of hearts and help you find release and relief, laughter and love. Amen.

À propos de l'auteur

About The Author Paula Strupeck Gardner, M.A., M.A. is a Mom In Transition: Her sons are currently in their second year of college and final year of high school. She has been writing since before she knew the words (Her 2-year-old’s scribbles are part of the family book collection.) and teaching for almost as long. A former French, ESL, and Linguistics instructor, Paula’s favorite teaching experience was that of stay-at-home mom although Paula feels she did more learning than teaching during that time! She now teaches yoga and ayurveda and leads workshops and retreats for people who enjoy balancing their lives with sound, movement, meditation, and food! (To receive her emails about upcoming retreats or to plan one of your own, register at www.retreatwithpaula.com). She also directs marketing efforts in the family business. Paula sees herself as a facilitator of learning and is delighted that so many people have embraced her prayers as reflections of their own hearts and minds. Friends, family, and students have encouraged her over the years to publish so that everyone could experience the sense of peace that her writing and speaking evokes. Paula encourages you to listen to your own heart and to the hearts of those around you.
