In today’s world of high stress and 24-7 information overload, it can be difficult to have a proactive mental and physical health strategy. A key component of this is understanding how stress and life balance are impacting your life and that of your family. It is easy to lose touch with what is “normal” when it comes to finding balance and offsetting negative health implications based on busy schedules. Stress is a key contributor and catalyst to potential long-term and late-life diseases. We become so accustomed to stress through lifestyle choices, we don’t realize the short- or long-term impacts. Having a proactive stress- and lifestyle-management strategy is an ongoing challenge we must face as we endure.
Finding Quiet Spaces in Busy Places takes a closer look at the short- and long-term consequences of busy schedules and the stress it causes on mental and physical health. This book outlines, in a simple and easy to consume format, the preventative benefits of having a holistic mental health strategy using proactive techniques, such as meditation. Drawing from experience and research, studying Buddhist monks at temples in Thailand and India, I captured those findings and condensed them into an approach I think is adaptable for anyone who wants to learn more about finding mental balance and reducing stress in their lives.

Leveraging a unique cast of characters, Soul Searching takes the reader on a journey for meaning and explanation given the uncertainties of life. Critical of cultural norms and spiritual bias, the story weaves together an emotionally tolling set of events that at times are light and humorous and, at others, are dark and exploratory. Throughout the search, the main character finds truth in lies and exceptions to norms—and deals with the consequences of his actions and the actions of those around him, focusing on events both controllable and unforeseen. The inability to accept past events in self-reflection and the failure to understand the future in self-trial is a reminder to all of the delicate balance between life, destiny, and the underlying tenants that define our experiences.
