In what way are we called to live amidst our busy world? It is so easy, especially in the work place, to get caught up in the busyness of the day and miss the meaning, lessons and joy in it. The majority of adults spend more waking hours at work than we do in their own homes. The quality of the work place is forming the quality of our homes and our lives. If the work place is not healthy, what are we saying about the health of this society? The purpose of the Place Within Series is to invite brief reflections that connect us to the heart, the soul, the place within. It is the place of peace, silence, wisdom, love, compassion and the source of energy and nourishment. It is a place of hope, always with us, regardless of the external chaos or the extremes that surround us each day at work. When we go within, we are able to reach out and return to the world our strengths and hopes that reflect the unseen capacity of ourselves and an evolving humanity. A unique CD is now available to enhance the reflections that connect one to "The Place Within." It features the beautiful and inspirational voice of Diane Penning.
The Way of Authenticity in the Work Place (Wesorick, 1999) is the second book in the Place Within Series. It is a short, thought provoking read on the topic of being genuine and true to ourselves and others in the work place. It is intentionally designed to offer concentrated insights on authenticity and how it impacts the quality of our life and those we connect with and care about each day.
