Come Home to Your Heart: Essay Collection & Journal
If you've been desperately missing yourself, welcome home.
Come Home to Your Heart is an essay collection and guided journal that invites you to tune into your inner sage so that you can be reunited with who you truly are. There is an internal voice that says profound things when you sit still enough to listen, and these 28 writing invitations teach you how to harness your heart's wisdom.
In this nurturing guide, Nadine Kenney Johnstone shares the little life moments and healing practices that restored her spirit. She draws upon her vast experience as a writing coach, professor, retreat leader, and meditation instructor to pass along the secrets of soul-centered journaling to you. Each chapter is a mini retreat reminding you that no matter how disconnected from yourself you might feel, you can always come home to your heart.
Come Home to Your Heart, is available on Bookshop, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.

Of This Much I’m Sure, Memoir
"Of This Much I'm Sure says it—the truths we keep secret. It goes there: messy and beautiful and complicated and terrifying and, ultimately, joyful. It's a story about fighting like hell. It's a story that is more necessary than ever before." — Megan Stielstra, The Wrong Way To Save Your Life
