| "Listening
To Your Inner Voice" consists of
a series of 52 passages or "teachings," each of which contains
three parts:
- A Meditation - a short passage that offers
thoughts and reflections about a specific subject or life
experience. Each meditation will speak to you in its own
way, providing support, comfort, insight, and understanding.
- A series of Affirmations - positive thoughts
and ideas that when repeated will help you to transform
your negative beliefs and attitudes. For those readers not
familiar with affirmations, the text begins with an overview
of what affirmations are and how to use them.
- A Quotation that encapsulates the essence
of the teaching.
While the format of "Listening to Your Inner
Voice" closely follows that of "Words That Heal", there exists
a subtle difference in the underlying themes of the books'
meditations.
The inspiration for "Words That Heal" came
to me during a difficult period in my life when I had just
lost a home, job, and primary relationship. In order to respond
to the despair I was facing, the words that came through me
spoke of hope, comfort, and support.
By the time I started "Listening to Your Inner
Voice", I had emerged from the darkness and a new challenge
presented itself. I asked, "Now that I am no longer preoccupied
with the pain, what is my next step? How can I now get in
touch with and fully express my purpose in life?" The essays
of "Listening to Your Inner Voice" reflect this shift by speaking
more to the issues of individuality, purpose, guidance, and
direction than to those of
pain and loss.
I like to think of this evolution as being
analogous to the process of recovering from alcoholism. The
first step is to stop drinking. Then, when sobriety is achieved,
the real work of recovery can begin.
