Awake in the Heartland: The Ecstasy of What Is

Awake in the Heartland shows how spiritual practice and the pursuit of "enlightenment" can become an addiction, or yet another goal that can impede us from waking up in the present moment. In her poignant autobiography, author Joan Tollifson encourages readers to look for themselves without clinging to old opinions or relying on outside authorities. Honest, funny, and profound, this is a book that invites readers to discover who or what they really are.
