The Seven Whispers - by Christina Baldwin (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In The Seven Whispers, journal writing pioneer Christina Baldwin teaches us to listen to the inner voice that originates from each of our souls -- the voice of spirit. Though we may call this voice by whatever name has meaning for us -- spirit, intuition, or God -- hearing it is a universal human experience. Built around seven phrases, or whispers, Baldwin's book is a personal guide for finding and listening to that voice. A powerful call to reenvision our lives, told in the voice of a trusted friend, The Seven Whispers delivers a wonderfully inspiring yet practical spirituality.

THE SEVEN WHISPERS

Maintain peace of mind
Move at the pace of guidance

Ask for what you need and offer what you can
Love the folks in front of you
Return to the world
