| Within every woman there is an essential Truth waiting to be claimed, a Truth that will empower her to claim a spiritual life that is real and authentic, one that will nourish and sustain her every day. Drawing from her personal encounters with twelve spiritual mentors--activists, artists, writers, and teachers--author Janice Lynne Lundy has created twelve Transformational Truths to guide and enable women to live more peaceful, confident, and open-hearted lives. Each chapter includes peaceful pauses for meditation and reflection questions that will help readers unpack their own personal meaning from each Transformational Truth's profound wisdom.

What are you, really? "Your Truest Self: Embracing the Woman You Are
Meant to Be" is a guide for women to finding their true purpose in life
to empower themselves for dealing with everything that's thrown at
them. Offering advice and spiritual guidance from personal experience
and wisdom from many mentors she's had, she passes on the sage
knowledge to the reader in fine fashion. "Your Truest Self" is very
much recommended reading for any woman who wants to embrace their
spirituality more fully.
By profiling each of these holy and yet wholly human women, Jan
helped me clear a path through all the negative messages from within
and without. I knew some of these women by their writings or
reputation. But their collected wisdom brings something unique to this
book. Facilitated by the author, they helped me see myself as a holy
woman, as we all are. < Read the

In each chapter, Ms. Lundy takes the major theme of each woman's
journey and discusses it in the context of her own spiritual growth.
She then presents a set of reflection questions for the reader on that
topic, and a ?Peaceful Pause'--a contemplation or meditation exercise
corresponding to the chapter's theme. I think most women will enjoy the
combination of interviews, personal stories, and prescriptive guidance.
The format creates a kind of spiritual 'sampler plate', providing just
enough of a sense of each woman to help you decide whether you would
like to read more by or about that individual. [read

The book is at its most compelling when Lundy provides vivid and
specific details about the individual women's stories and how those
experiences affected their spirituality.
"Your Truest Self" should appeal to women who want to explore a
personal spirituality as a way to feel more fully alive, beyond the
dogma of organized religion. <
