Sjana Elise Earp inspires thousands of people around the world with her infectiously joyful approach to life. But happiness hasn’t always come easily. During her recovery from her experiences of anxiety and depression, writing has been Sjana’s tool to reflect, find gratitude and grow through her emotions. Now, she’s ready to share her vulnerability in her first published collection of poems and photography, and help lift up her sisters too.
Dip in during moments when inspiration or comfort is needed, or take a cover-to-cover journey through Sjana’s tender words and beautiful images of nature’s wonders. Either way, you’ll feel grounded, calmer and more connected to the unique power within you. And you, too, will rise.
My View:
This is a beautifully produced, photographed and moving read. Inspirational, meditative and calming…I am sure there is something here for most people.
This is my favourite quote from the book:
“Whatever you do, do it with your whole heart. Do it with your
whole soul. Do it with meaning. Do it with intention. Do it
with grace. Do it with lightness and do it with love. Do it with
thought. Do it with compassion and do it with kindness.” P 47
This will make a fabulous Christmas gift for someone you love.
This sounds so uplifting and affirming, Carol! Especially in this uncertain world we live in right now, it’s nice to have something calming, peaceful, and positive. It’s not that you don’t acknowledge the bad things going on, but you focus yourself and find your inner calm to deal with them. I like that view.
Agree with you Margot – its a tonic.
