'This is a sacred treasury, a spiritual notebook which is very special to me, and which has touched and inspired me at different times over the years.' 
 
In To Live from the Heart: Mindful Paths to the Sacred, Sister Stan reveals how prayer can play an important part in all our lives, lifting our spirits and offering us hope and support in good times and bad. 
 
This comforting treasury of mindful meditations, prayers, proverbs and essays has helped to sustain Sister Stan through the years. In sharing them with us, she hopes they will nourish our souls, bring us peace on our journey through life, and inspire us to live from the heart.

To Live From The Heart

Mindful Paths To The Sacred

Based on the traditional Book of Hours - psalms said daily, at set times, by religious communities throughout the world - Seasons of the Day reveals the enduring relevance of this ancient practice 
to contemporary living. 
 
In Seasons of the Day, Sister Stan, knowing that our modern-day understanding of time pushes us to our stressed-out limits, passes on the monastic ritual to the layperson. 
 
Here, as she slows us down, she reveals the psalms through her own words, her own prayers. Using them, she also guides us tenderly through a four-week period, from the silence and mystery of pre-dawn (matins) through to the reflective conclusion of the day (compline). 
 
In a world that can often seem hostile and unfriendly, her gentle reflections help the reader find inner peace and confidence. 
 
A prayer book for today

SPIRITUAL REFLECTIONS ON TIME FOR EVERYBODY 
 
Now is the Time looks beyond the boundaries of any one faith or church and draws on the great spiritual and philosophical traditions of east and west. 
 
As Sister Stan focuses on a line of poetry from one of the world's great authors, an idea from a psychotherapist or philosopher, or a proverb from oriental wisdom, she weaves her own thoughts around them in a way that presents them afresh, and allows us to see them from a new perspective. 
 
 This is book for everyone battling with today's current climate: young or old, male or female, for the converted, the irreligious or plain disaffected. 
 
Reflective, contemplative and spiritual, it is the perfect tonic to our busy and relentless world...
