Way to Be
Are You Ready to Change Your Life?
Wherever you are on your journey to self-discovery, personal transformation, and the art of being, the forty insights and transformative practices in this book can provide you with a comprehensive and practical guide for a heart centered approach to changing your life.
The authors, a yoga teacher and a psychotherapist, have blended their insight and experience to come up with 40 practices that create a holistic approach to transformation and positive change. Each unique practice, called a “Be,” is a simple and concise approach to change that will challenge the ingrained habits of thought and behavior that keep you stuck.
Each practice contains specific, unique meditations, journal prompts, and a plan for taking action in the world. Done consistently, these practices will help you to develop mindfulness, the new patterns of thought and action and new ways of relating to yourself and others that will literally transform your life.
There is no specific order of the practices; you can dive in any way you wish. The following are a couple of suggestions:
- You can do one practice a day and go through the whole book.
- You can do the same practice for forty days.
- You can open the book randomly and make that page the practice of the day.
- You can choose the practices which attract you the most, doing them until you feel inspired to choose another.
- You can pick a practice a week and share your process with someone or a group.
The options are endless, and they are all good.
Done consistently, these practices will awaken your authentic self by developing your mind, body, and spirit and teaching you to be at peace with the constant unfolding of who you truly are.

Being rather than doing? There are already thousands of books about this topic on Amazon. And those books you bought and never finished because there was no place to dig in your toes and find enough traction to change anything about your doing life. This book is different. If taken to heart, these 40 “Be” practices offer a profound taste of how to live in your body, kinder and more awake. Don’t miss this opportunity.
