Description
For centuries, spiritual and meditative practices have helped people become more balanced, focused, and happier. Christian saints like John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila supported the development of both heart and soul. We now know that such habits benefit the whole person. In her book, published by the prestigious Jesuit publishing house Loyola Press, the author draws on current research in the fields of neurology and psychology to connect traditional Christian spiritual practices with health and mental care. Thanks to her education and experience in brain development, positive psychology, and theology, Anne is able to link seemingly simple practices, such as focused breathing, gardening, mindfulness, or walks in nature, with the positive effects they have on your mind, body, and soul. Her book is kind, practical, and readable, with each chapter exploring specific topics like breath, gratitude, and self-compassion, and includes simple procedures that readers can try out immediately. The book received the Illumination Book Award in 2021.
