"…a treasure chest of life tools, spiritual practices and inspiring stories of personal transformation...." ― Neil Douglas-Klotz , author of Desert Wisdom and The Sufi Book of Life Without purpose, even if we are on the right path, we have no motivation to walk down it. Find Your Soul’s Purpose tackles this question head-on by discussing the divine purpose affixed to each of our souls. Who am I? It’s a question we have all asked at some point in our lives. Our identities can often seem elusive. Though we know ourselves best, it’s difficult at times to separate who we are from who we want to be―or we feel we are―as opposed to how others see us. We present so many different versions of ourselves to the world that sometimes our true identity gets lost in the process. Writer and spiritual guide Janet Conner is here to help guide us back to ourselves. Why am I here? Maybe you’ve been on a steady path for a while, and you’re only now beginning to question if you’ve been heading in the right direction. Maybe you’ve wandered all your life with no direction at all. Either way, you desire an answer to this question―and Conner leads you on a journey to find it. What is my purpose? By connecting with our soul, our inner guide, we open ourselves up to embrace the spiritual gifts that each of us possesses. Conner expresses the importance of our soul’s stories and shares how we can find a new life, one infused with meaning and purpose.

In Writing Down Your Soul: How to Activate and Listen to the Extraordinary Voice Within, Janet Conner tells a profound story of what actually happens in our hearts, minds, and souls when we write with the intention of accessing divine wisdom. Not content to have simply experienced the life-changing power of writing, Janet set out to uncover the science that explains why writing by hand is the single most effective vehicle into unconscious mind and beyond. Weaving together the most potent elements, Janet presents a simple, modern process that anyone can use to access the wisdom that waits just below the conscious surface. With this practical tool at your disposal, you'll know exactly how to ask for and receive the guidance you need to create the life you want. "
Some parts applicable and inspiring, other parts not so much. What I do appreciate about Janet is that she acts as a guide for your journey, not as a know it all with pat answers. Worth the time for spiritual explorers. Part of a larger series of books/classes called The Five Things Your Soul Wants.
The basic premise of this book is a spiral. Thinking about life as a spiral, going back to when you were born, finding and rediscovering what brings you joy in life, meditation on your purpose, and refocusing on what you are being called to do in this lifetime. A good read if you want to recommit yourself to your life’s purpose.
Not in the mood for this book at the moment. It is languishing on my shelf for now. I just wanted to know more about soul writing. The book has helped. My current focus is memoir, writing and research for future writing projects. Plenty of tools included here for those interested in personal development and creative visualisation. Online meditations accompany the book.
