I found the book informative, beautifully and clearly written and performed. It really touched me. I keep going back and rereading it, finding more depth and connection with each reading. I am grateful for the work Oren did. He balanced his personal information with theoretical information.

I teach qigong and I am so grateful that a student of mine recommended this book at least six months ago. I have been listening to Oren’s peaceful and calming voice for some time as I own an Oura ring where he leads many sleep meditations. After listening to the book all the way through and thoroughly enjoyed it, I now go back a few times a week and take one chapter/lesson at a time…. Listen over and over until it sinks in.,, taking the action and meditation steps to embody these ways of being. Each time I go back I am hearing it from a different level of awareness and thus the lessons keep getting deeper. This might just be a book for life. Thank you Oren Jay Sofer.
