Enlighten Your Life: 52 Prayers with Visualizations, Affirmations & Love
Description:
What is the real purpose of prayer? Is it a way to get what we want from God, or a magical means of wish fulfillment? In this original and stunning collection of prayerful meditations, French-American writer Lyna Rose reminds us that “Prayer does not exist so that we may get our way, and God is not Santa Claus. Prayer exists so that we may align our mind and our heart with the divine order of happiness that exists deep within us, but is so often forgotten.” Organized in sections of prayers, visualizations, and affirmations for Relationships, The Self, Family, The World, and The Inner Life, this passionate book is rooted in the author’s own life experiences as an orphan, single mother, and dedicated seeker. Drawing from many spiritual perspectives, Enlighten Your Life will do just that - by offering powerful, well-chosen words to help you align your mind and heart with the divine happiness within.“Lyna Rose has a lovely voice, soft and tender but deep and serious. I harken to the sound of her prayers.” — Marianne Williamson “In a world of spiritual self-help books, it’s a thrill of the soul to come upon Enlighten Your Life, a gift of impeccable teaching that can guide you to your own indispensable truth. I feel as though I’ve stumbled upon the journals of a saint, the electricity of one who has tussled to ignite her light, and who writes like a dream, yet a human being I can relate to, one who fills my bones with courage, love and recognition. This book is sweetness, strength, and genius.” — Tama Kieves, USA TODAY-featured visionary career catalyst and best-selling author of A Year without Fear: 365 Days of Magnificence and Thriving through Uncertainty “For those who work with A Course in Miracles, I heartily recommend this trenchant book of ACIM-inspired prayers by Lyna Rose. Lyna’s brief preface on the hype and reality of prayer is itself a statement that you will never forget.” — Mitch Horowitz, author of One Simple Idea: How Positive Thinking Reshaped Modern Life“Lyna Rose’s magic is that she’s able to transmute our mistakes and problems into exquisite and uncommon states of grace. She takes us on a journey that starts between a rock and a hard place, and ends in a subtle state of peace and joy. Readers will enjoy this book for other reasons, too. For one, Lyna’s personal revelations keep the reader continuously engaged in what she’s saying. She also takes the time to be original, presenting her ideas in fresh, compelling ways. Best and last, Lyna brings extraordinary writing talent and beauty into her work, and this is a great pleasure for the reader.” — Karen Bentley, best-selling author of The Power to Stop: stopping as a path to self-love, personal power and enlightenment “A beautiful and touching collection that speaks to the needs of many today. It gives a whole new freshness and depth to prayer.” — Richard Smoley, author of The Deal: A Guide to Radical and Complete Forgiveness“What I love about Lyna’s prayers and meditations is that she touches on so many subjects and reveals her own struggles. You can dip into this book again and again, and always come away with new inspirations about anything that’s challenging you. And she’s just a beautiful writer.” — Rev. Maria Felipe, author of Live Your Happy: Get Out of Your Own Way to Discover the Love Within“The gentle beauty of this book will help you realize the light within you. I love the way Lyna captures the important principle of taking full responsibility for our state of mind, yet lovingly helps guide us to bring our fears and uncertainties to the Truth of our oneness. These inspired prayers will return the mind to a condition of peace.” — Cindy Lora-Renard, author of A Course in Health and Well-Being, international speaker on A Course in Miracles, and Spiritual Life Coach
