The Sky Within - A Memoir of Sleep

Rebecca Stonehill

4.9/5 (19839 ratings)

Description:For well over a decade, author, wife and mother Rebecca Stonehill has fought against chronic insomnia, trying everything she can think of to improve her life and for the suffering she experiences as a result of severe sleep deprivation to go away. Yet it wasn't until she softened the edges of her aversion to this ordeal, a stance that flies in the face of popular wellness narratives, that life changed radically. Most significantly, it has allowed her to write this book and share her story.Combining her own very personal learnings with the wisdom of poets, teachers, writers, psychologists and sages, The Sky Within is an exploration of the universal experience of suffering, offering tools to meet it with less resistance and greater compassion. To stop pushing away discomfort may feel counter-intuitive, yet it shines a light upon how, if we do just this, the richness of life can open up to us in all kinds of surprising ways.PURCHASE BOOK FROM BACKLASH PRESS'This brilliant and soulful memoir by Rebecca Stonehill takes us on a deeply personal journey in search of meaning and grounding when sleep just doesn't come. This exquisite story goes far beyond what it means to live with chronic insomnia and mood disruption, but it also explores what it means to truly LIVE when everything around you feels tenuous, fragile, raw, and dark. The Sky Within is a spark of light, a warm and friendly reminder that when we are feeling most lost and alone, there is solid ground beneath us and a brilliant sky within that weaves us back into being. Rebecca Stonehill's uncanny ability to spin silk with each word makes for an incredibly rich and poetic journey through the rivers, caves, and valleys of a life that honours fierce love, deep grief, and soulful inquiry as a way to live authentically and courageously. Whether or not you have traversed dark terrain in your life, The Sky Within will resonate as a testament that we don't need to have all the answers or find the "cure" for what plagues us in order to live a rich and meaningful life. The Sky WIthin is an essential and exquisite read for each and every one of us. It reminds us that cultivating a willingness to just BE with what IS can have a profound impact on living an enlivened and wild existence. It will touch you in delightully unexpected ways.'- Alexandra Elite-Marcandonatou, LCSW, Psychotherapist & Soul Activist in Northern CaliforniaBacklash PressWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
