This book has been in my house for years and I finally got around to reading it. I forgot the richness and satisfaction of reading a good book. It was written before cellphones and the internet so refreshing to return to a bygone time. It is chock full of spirituality and many things I have lost contact with. For me the best part is the mindfulness/meditation training. I did it to some degree years ago and was struck by well she explained everything. I have returned to the practice with her help. Thank you Elisabeth Lesser.
