Connection! This is the chapter where I really feel like the rubber hits the road. We see how the practices support us in our relationship with ourselves, and then we can apply these skills to our relationships in the bigger world. That’s what we cover in this next to final chapter in the book.

Feel free to share your thoughts with me at [email protected]. I’d love to hear how your work is going as we meander through these daily practices.
