Now, on Follow Your North Star, she teaches you how to recognize the cues from within that will tell you whether your job, relationship, environment (even your daily schedule) are leading you in the right direction.

Humanity now, perhaps more than in any previous time, has an opportunity to create a new, saner, more loving world. This will involve a radical inner leap from the current egoic consciousness to an entirely new one. In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. Then gently, and in very practical terms, he leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are and learn to live and breathe freely.

Insight and empathy spring from the clash of different perspectives. In a world where it's easier than ever for people to share their opinions, we should be reaping the benefits of diverse views. Instead, we too often find ourselves mired in hostility or - worse - avoiding disagreement altogether. Ian Leslie argues that this is because most of us never learn how to air our differences in a way that leads to progress.

Summary
Oprah's Book Club pick
A New York Times best seller
Best-selling author, life coach and sociologist Martha Beck explains why 'integrity' - being in harmony with ourselves - is the key to a meaningful and joyful life.
In The Way of Integrity, Beck presents a four-stage process that anyone can use to find integrity, and with it, a sense of purpose, emotional healing, and a life free of mental suffering. Much of what plagues us - people pleasing, staying in stale relationships, negative habits - all point to what happens when we are out of touch with what truly makes us feel whole.
Inspired by The Divine Comedy, Beck uses Dante's classic hero's journey as a framework to break down the process of attaining personal integrity into small, manageable steps. She shows how to read our internal signals that lead us towards our true path, and to recognize what we actually yearn for versus what our culture sells us.
With techniques tested on hundreds of her clients, Beck brings her expertise as a social scientist, life coach and human being to help readers to uncover what integrity looks like in their own lives. She takes us on a spiritual adventure that not only will change the direction of our lives, but bring us to a place of genuine happiness.

Exquisite and practical - a treasure
I’d been feeling really low, and on reaching out to a great friend I’d explained how I perceived inner conflict within me, and she suggested I’d like this book and she bought it for me. This has been the most perfect book to help lift me from intense internal mental conflict. I found it relatable, realistic, practical, and overall, optimistic. It’s helping me feel grounded that my inner pain has a purpose, and the purpose is leading me to peace on earth. I have a paper copy too as an extra reference for the exercises. Here’s the key - don’t just listen to it, actually DO the exercises. Or at least do some as you listen once, then you’ll likely feel the pull of integrity to go listen again and do them all.

Life-changing (no, really)
I've read more than my fair share of 'self-help' books, in search of meaning, answers and methods I could apply to my life. Not one of them has come close to really speaking to me, inspiring me and inciting me like this one. Even though I knew little about Martha Beck until I read it, I immediately connected with her style and her take on life and how to live with integrity (spoiler alert: it's much much more than the moral integrity we are used to using that word for). I've listened all through, three times now. I make positive changes to my life on every listen. I may only ever listen to this one book until I've burned through all my hell gates! Thank you, Martha. Truly.

Elixir for Lionhearts
How to describe such an all encompassing book of wisdom told in an incredibly engaging way. Part of me wants to thrust it into the hands of everyone I know but instead I'm putting it on repeat.
There was only one short section where the integrity of the story felt 'off'...which was in Chapter 14 where Martha has a 'we are dooooomed' rant, but this tangent is redeemed in the final Chapter and maybe was an intentional reality check.
Otherwise the book rang so, so true.
Thankyou Martha Beck.
Your courage, your lion heart, is an inspiration.

I found the whole book a wonderful transformative experience.
It was an honest and open journey where Martha lay her struggles and challenges for all to read /listen and move forward with her . All paralleled with Dante and his journey.
The exercises along the way allowed the listener to stop, reflect and question where they are at that moment in their lives.
Loved it. Thank you Martha
