This is a guidebook for reconnecting to the true source of happiness within.
by Gabrielle Bernstein
How does a New York City publicist and party girl turn into a go-to guide for the next generation? In this book, Bernstein shares the story of how she transformed her life, offering her spiritual journey as a guidebook for overcoming fear, changing perceptions and creating a life you are psyched to wake up to each morning.
Until her mid-20s, she looked for happiness and love in all the wrong places — in relationships, career, shoes and the New York City party scene, but none of it worked.
Today she has traded self-doubt and addiction for a new kind of high. She got sober, began meditating and became a student of A Course in Miracles. Since then, she has been guided to translate and teach those principles to the next generation of seekers.
Today, young women want happiness, not more stuff. They are more interested in green juice, yoga and meditation than nightclubs and the latest fashion trends. This is a guidebook for that journey and for reconnecting to the true source of happiness within.
