Book: Tune In, Let your intuition guide you to fulfillment
and flow by Sonia Choquette
This book is a keeper!
Literally, I had intended to pass it on when I finished reading it, but
I couldn't resist taking notes in the margins and highlighting particularly well
phrased passages and ideas. Now, I can
flip back through the book and find encouragement quickly in areas I've marked
to re-visit. I also really appreciate
when authors excel with the use of language to ignite passion and sound poetic
at the same time and Sonia Choquette does a good job of that in this book, Tune
In. The is the first of Sonia's books
that I have read, but I look forward to reading another soon, specifically, the
one about helping children tune in.
Though I have read several books in this genre, I truly think
that daily input matters. Just like a healthy diet of food to nourish the
physical body, I can't just make healthy choices one day and expect to stay
healthy. Rather, I need to continue to
make on-going healthy choices each day to remain healthy. Similarly, with the information I put into my
head, I need to continually make positive choices and re-enforce healthy habits
and constantly remind myself how to live a healthy life mentally and
emotionally. For that reason, I continue
to read books with similar messages and would recommend this book, even if
you've already read quite a bit of this sort.
Even when I've read other books on a topic, I often find
something new or a new way that something has been presented by an author that
might finally "click" for me personally and enable me to better
incorporate a particular idea into my life.
For example, I've read several books recently that address fear, and not
that I sought out or that were intended to focus on fear in particular. This book seemed to highlight the lessons
I've been digesting regarding facing fears and leaving fear behind in order to
enjoy living.
In addition, the author encourages the need for self love
and how to start really loving yourself and your life. This is another message that has been
re-iterated across books I've been reading recently and, I think, a much needed
one for people to realize the difference between selfishness and self love! I had just read the book Dying to be me by
Anita Moorjani before this book and Sonia's book, Tune In, was a great follow-up
to Anita's book to offer practical methods to assess and inspire self love.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone, regardless of
faith, culture, career, etc. because the message is so applicable to all of us
sharing this journey of life, especially at this particular time on our planet.
In Sonia's own words, "When we stop
judging, overthinking, worrying, and separating ourselves from others and from
God, and simply follow our natural design to love without hesitation or fear,
life becomes a blessed symphony of miracles."
