The Joy Book is Now Available as an E-Book!

Posted on: November 18th, 2011 by ingrid No Comments

I’m an old fashioned girl.  I’ve always loved books.  My favorite dreams are those when I find myself in an old, dimly lit, dusty bookstore: an out-of-this-world bookstore brimming with books containing poetry, beauty, fantasy, art…the secrets of the world.  The other day my father-in-law sent a picture of an old book, saying “they don’t make them like this anymore.”

And I thought, Oh, but that’s just what I wanted the Joy Book to be- an exhilarating and sensual feast of words, pictures, poetry and inspiration.
I’ll still visit real live bookstores…I’ll still always seek those treasures to bring home.  And I also know that times are changing.  So I’ve created a digital download e-book version of The Joy Book for those of us who prefer to travel light.  It’s only $8, and you have it in less than five minutes.  A modern miracle, this old fashioned girl declares.

Baby girl smelling giant roseWhether you are aware of it or not,
you are whole.
You are perfectly imperfect…
You delight the Universe
and you are good enough.

~From The Joy Book

Love everything.  Love your way into Joy.

THERE IS A FIELD OF JOY YOU MAY REST IN

There is a field of consciousness deep within you that contains the Universe; a field of love and beauty, truth, harmony and light. Opening to this consciousness brings a luminous feeling of bliss. Dwelling in this field feels like coming home… Seeing it in others, you realize all are One… You may dance in this field, wander in this field, and find guidance in this field. You may rest in this field whenever your mortal mind is weary. Take yourself there and rest. It is the breath within your breath, the space between your thoughts. It is your deep inner stillness, your indwelling peace and joy.
