Story
Stephen Mitchell’s gift is to breathe new life into ancient classics. In Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness, he offers us his riveting novelistic version of the biblical tale in which Jacob’s favorite son is sold into slavery and eventually becomes viceroy of Egypt. Tolstoy called it the most beautiful story in the world. What’s new here is the lyrical, witty, vivid prose, informed by a wisdom that brings fresh insight to this foundational legend of betrayal and all-embracing forgiveness.

Solid 5-stars
Reviewed: 08-27-23
Stephen Mitchell is one of the few and rare authors who fills my heart in ineffable ways in his storytelling. Mitchell does this again in "Joseph and the Way of Forgiveness." When listening, I was awed, I am awed, by the relatable ways he told this timeless story. I can't stop listening to it... I replay chapters and sections for the potency he offers in his rendering.
I've yet to read or listen to a Stephen Mitchell book that is anything less than 5+ stars. I highly recommend this beautiful book, with this beautiful translation of this important story. I'm so grateful I bought it in both Audible and Kindle formats, so I can linger in the sections that move my heart.

"Your Primal Nature" offers a welcome perspective on our the gifts from our connection with nature, both within ourselves and in the world around us. Myss eloquently explains how embracing our primal nature can lead to profound personal transformation and a deeper sense of purpose.
Myss effortlessly weaves together ancient wisdom, psychological insights, and spiritual teachings, creating a tapestry of knowledge that has got me pressing play again, right after I finished the first listen. She also provides insightful exercises and practical techniques that help us integrate the teachings into their own journeys of self-discovery.
Nothing Myss offers is less than 5-stars.

Story
The Bhagavad Gita, "The Song of the Lord", is the best known of all the Indian scriptures, and Easwaran's reliable and accessible version has consistently been the best-selling translation. Easwaran's introduction places the Gita in its historical setting and brings out the universality and timelessness of its teachings. Chapter introductions give clear explanations of key concepts in that chapter.

Story
Perhaps no other Biblical tale penetrates so deeply into the everyday travails of the common person as The Book of Job. It tells the story of a righteous man beset by torment and misfortune through no fault of his own. This parable of bad things happening to a good person addresses the eternal question of why we are here, and why we suffer. This translation is by Stephen Mitchell.

Reviewed: 05-06-22
I'm speechless, by both Stephen Michell's rendition of The Book of Job, and Peter Coyote's narration. Both men brought to life this timeless story in ways that silence me. This audio book is the best I've ever listened too.
I can't fathom other's comments on "poor sound quality" and taking away a star for this work of art. This audio book is pure brilliance. Heart full.
For the poetry, for the passion, for the highest level of artistry and excellence in every way, I assure you, this book will pull you into the story without you even noticing it happening. And then of course are the lessons it offers, right?

With Channeling Grace you are invited to ascend to what Myss calls the "altitude of the mystics".

I love Caroline Myss, and if you love her like I do, you’ll find yourself laughing out loud at the strength of her conviction, passion and heart. Channeling Grace speaks to my soul, and to my understanding of spirituality and faith, and on steroids. With all the work that Caroline offers, I sometimes think I don’t need another of her books, and then she nails it again. I love this book!

I read this book because I wanted help shaking down the limiting story, I hate cold. I’ve already begun the practices of concentration, cold showers, and breath work. I’m also putting a live training with Wim on my new adventures to do list. Wim ROCKED my world in every way! This was the perfect book to kick off the new year! I loved every single thing that Wim offered. This book offers game-changing thought and action, far and away beyond personal development work!

The thing that I love best about Caroline Myss is, her straight-forward delivery. There’s no ego needing to hear itself, but a woman’s clear commitment to helping her listener get something they came for. After listening to this book, I feel renewed to listen again, and to get another audio book of Caroline’s on my bookshelf. I loved this book, and highly recommend it.

We tend to think of faith as a commodity you either have or you don't. But in many of the world's wisdom traditions, faith isn't something you possess; it's something you do. "Faith is a willingness to take the next step, to see the unknown as an adventure, to launch a journey," teaches Sharon Salzberg. Now this beloved meditation teacher and author shares her unique understanding of faith, distinguishing it from belief and dogma, to help you cultivate this profound force in your life.

A Very Easy 5-Star Rating
Reviewed: 07-26-19
I loved this book, and in ways beyond anything Sharon’s ever written. There were times I paused in awe of the depth of emotion and effort she took to tell her personal stories in ways I, we her readers, could benefit. I also paused a few times from listening to her voice, and noticing how much she embodies the loving kindness she practices and teaches. I highly recommend “Faith,” and for anyone, from any faith-tradition. Yes, Sharon references Buddhism, but in her ever-best-signature inclusive and considerate way.
