Open Dedication
I wrote this book for Siena, Bella, Maya, and
Dominic. I want them to know why we’re here and
the purpose of the trials of life. I encourage them
to break through conflict orientation to live a life of inspiration.

Move Introduction
Open Introduction
This story is meant to inspire healing
on a deep level. It is metaphoric in nature
and not intended to contradict nor
oppose any particular ideology.
The term “God” is used as a symbol to
represent the Great Mystery, or what
is beyond our understanding directly but
essential to recognize personally. In this way,
the message can be useful to those
both of religious and non-religious orientations.

contains a 30 day workbook based on The
Daily Practice. There are actions you must take

changing in application.
There are three core aspects to The Daily
Practice:

the day. Build inspiration into your life.
- Clean as You Go: during the day, watch
for elements of darkness and rid yourself
of them immediately as they appear.
- Evening Soul Surgery: take an
inventory of remaining dark spots.
Remove them.
The following section is a workbook called the
Daily Practice. Make a commitment to
completing it, without missing a single day, for
a total of 30 days. This will help to solidify the
