Book Description

Publication Date: February 14, 2008

Journey From Head to Heart is...

A Toolkit for those who are exhausted from solving neverending problems, working harder and harder and not arriving at the destination where they truly want to be.

A Map for how to make the journey from head to heart and then integrate the two so that the power of ego is diminished and the Authentic Self can emerge to live and work from the power of the human spirit.

A Reference book you can use for many years to come as the reader meets life's challenges with success that satisfies both the head and the heart.

Journey from Head to Heart is exactly that, integrating logic, reason, emotion, spirituality, recovery, science, and ancient wisdom from a variety of sources to create a recipe for wholeness. The tools and processes are designed for people who are a little wary of "touchy-feely" or "New Age" approaches.
Praise for Journey From Head to Heart

"For beginners on a spiritual voyage, as well as for experienced travelers, Journey From Head To Heart is very powerful. I couldn't put it down. Its stories, told with clarity and simplicity, make it a treasure."
-Dr. Linda O'Neal, Executive Director, Southwest Education Alliance

"This book is for people struggling with work/life balance, for entrepreneurs, for those seeking their authentic purpose in life and work. It lays out a plan to get ego out of the way, lead with humility, and communicate so that others are attracted to your cause."
-Dick Moeller, President St. David's Community Health Foundation

"What separates this book from the majority of self-help manuals is the author's awareness that many people in today's world neglect to acknowledge the importance of personal faith and spirituality in the growth process, and in turn, are unable to integrate their actions with their beliefs."
-Lisa Heidle, Rebecca's Reads
