Cia Ricco is the author of Living As If Your Life Depended On It, which sold thousands of copies by word of mouth, and the co-author of From Self-Worth to Net Worth, as well as four audio CDs. She had a radio program in the eighties, as well as having been a guest on various shows. She has taught at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, the Omega Institute, Wainwright House, the Open Center in NYC, and other venues, both public and private. She continues to lead programs both in-person and on Zoom, and is currently teaching a course on “Living, Aging, and Dying with Grace, Peace, and Harmony,” as well as conducting residential psycho-spiritual deep-dive retreats.
Cia has been a therapist for forty years and a Tibetan Buddhist meditator for fifty. The combination of those two perspectives on life gave her an early and long-standing interest in the phases of life. Now that she is in her seventies, she has a greater appreciation for what those phases mean and for the challenges that come with transition.

Lela Jaacks brings a rich tapestry of experiences and insights to Inner Seasons, embodying the very essence of the book's exploration of growth, transformation, and alignment with nature's cycles. As an artist, Lela's creative vision is deeply influenced by the vibrant, ever-changing patterns of the natural world, allowing her to weave complex concepts of personal and spiritual growth into engaging narratives. Lela’s work in bioenergetic wellness, combined with her knowledge of human design and essential oils, provides a solid foundation for understanding the intricate dance between energy, the body, and the environment. Her work speaks not only to those seeking personal transformation but also to anyone looking to deepen their connection with the natural world.
As a dedicated gardener, Lela not only cultivates the Earth but also practices what she preaches, living in rhythm with the seasons and modeling a life of sustainable, harmonious connection with the natural world. Her holistic approach to wellness is not just theoretical but lived. Lela's role as a wife and mother of three young adults has enriched her understanding of life's cycles and the importance of nurturing.
