SHOW INTRODUCTION:

If you’ve ever wanted to understand & know your soul, then do we have the Things That Join the Sea and the Sky for you!

Today I’ll be talking with Mark Nepo, the author of at least 19 books including the #1 New York Times Bestseller The Book of Awakening, The One Life We’re Given and one of the most profound beautiful books I’ve ever read on light and life, Things That Join the Sea and the Sky: Field Notes on Living.

And that’s just what I want to talk with him about today, about his field notes on living, and how you can learn to journal to touch your soul.

MORE ON MARK NEPO:

Mark Nepo is a poet and philosopher who has taught in the fields of poetry, health, and spirituality for forty years. A New York Times #1 bestselling author, he has published fourteen books and recorded eight audio projects. Mark has appeared with Oprah Winfrey on her Super Soul Sunday program on OWN TV, and has also been interviewed by Robin Roberts on Good Morning America. His work has been translated into more than twenty languages. Mark keynotes regularly for conferences and corporations, works with healing and medical communities, including chaplains and therapists, speaks and offers workshops for colleges and universities, and leads spiritual retreats.

In 1987, Mark was diagnosed with a rare form of lymphoma. The heart of that journey and its aftermath has greatly informed his work. Ever since, he has been a student of all paths and his work has explored the common center and unity of all spiritual traditions, focusing on how we can experience that unity when we can lean into life and hold nothing back. Ultimately, he explores with others how to live wholeheartedly, so we can inhabit the gifts we are born with and find the language of our own wisdom.
