A Book for Life: Ten Steps to Inner Happiness is a treasure trove of wisdom from various traditions, ranging from Shamanism to Buddha's philosophy, and Zen to Western philosophy, all of which are intertwined with a plethora of ancient parables. Serving as a light house, Jo's book is a guide to discovering one's aptitude along the journey of life, towards the goal suitable to each person's disposition and mental proclivities. I highly recommend this book.

What I absolutely love about this book is that Jo Bowlby draws on her deep experience in both the spiritual Teachings and modern psychology and translates it for people like us - into easy to understand practical tools we can apply in daily life. In a way she's done the deep research and homework for us - so it's a bit like a cheat sheet! A wealth of information and tools in there.

Zesty, like a tangerine to be peeled in mindful contemplation. Simple yet all-enveloping, like an attractive blue sky. Flowing like water. As intriguing as the finest thriller. Charming and surprising, like a shooting star. Nourishing like honey. Ancient and full of energy, like a volcano. Jo's book is an offer of freedom to dance our way home: a true and truthful balm of practical wisdom on the "simple" art of life.

Really enjoying this. Not your usual self-help book. It's succinct, very well written and not selling nonsense. Highly recommended.
