March Newsletter: launch of my new book and Circle of Light Meditation!

 

It is with great joy that I share with you my new book,

Loss: The Doorway to New Life, 365 Days of Inspiration. 

Books are now available here Loss: The Doorway to New Life through my publisher, iUniverse. They’re also available online through Amazon and Barnes & Noble.


Here are a few of the reviews for the book:


"...I highly recommend this book about coping with loss and grief and renewing your life. It provides insightful tools, encouragement and hope. It is a book to enhance your life today and for years to come as the guidance shared will move you towards true unconditional love of yourself today as you are and assist you in rebuilding your life." -- Sharon V. Salter


"The book arrived yesterday. I couldn’t put it down. Well done! Tender, heartfelt and true! A real gift to humanity. TY so much!❤️the progression from deep grief to fully alive again was very inspiring. I highly recommend this book- great stories, meditations and gives hope." -- Liah


"Reading the Preface is worth the price of the book. But don’t stop there. My spiritual books are my friends and in time of need, Frannie’s book will be your best friend; someone who knows what you’re going through, knows your pain and desire to hide from it but shows you that your grief and loss will make you a ‘bigger’ and better human being and as much as we wish we could achieve this without the suffering, Loss IS often Our Personal Doorway to a richer and more profound way of LIVING." -- Joey Schooley

I’m so excited to announce that I will be selling and signing my book at the official launch party being held at the end of the month here in Anna Maria and I want you to come and celebrate with me! More details about the book launch and the Circle of Light meditation are on the flyer below.


Whether you join me in person or connect with me energetically from wherever you may be, I am thankful for you. Each and every one of you. You encourage me. You support me. And you inspire me.


And so, with a very full heart, I share with you an excerpt from Loss: The Doorway to New Life. It's from Day 365, my final entry, which marks an ending-- the end of the book and the end of a year thoughtfully and deliberately moving and growing through grief. And also a beginning, the beginning of a new chapter in the book of life.

In the stillness, I give thanks for all that has come before me and all that will come in the aftermath of life’s storms. It comes as a calmness inside that moves and breathes and is aware of this incredible life that flows without effort. It illuminates me and opens me to the reality that is here humbly giving life.


Nature, with all its honesty, is all around me bowing to this cherished moment, holding me with reverence, and waiting for me to get it, to understand with my heart that this life is perfect.


It has grounded me into being the receiver of everything until the light enters my conscious awareness and tells me the secrets of the Universe. These messages come streaming into me like the light from the moon. The energy that radiates such power wakes me up to the truth. There is nothing to fix, nothing to do but allow this moment to birth me into being more loving, more kind, more compassionate, more patient, more giving, more connected to this love that is the Universe. This omnipresent bigness of a power that is so vast, that as I let it in, I am healed. And so, I can radiate that which I am into this world I am a part of. As I move out of my head and into the heart, it moves me into a higher vibration that allows me to inspire in new ways.


The new world is in me. A new life has come. I do not have to shake the sleeping ones. I choose to go out and play and dance and sing and write and paint and love. I won’t wait for another; I will embody the offering that flows through me and let it spill out of me with every hug or gaze or hello. Every word I write, each stroke of a brush, whether preparing food or taking part in a conversation, I am the illuminated heart of the One who enters this divine moment with grace.
