Books on mindfulness and gratitude
Finding Joy Within
BY DAVID CORBY
Finding Joy Within shows us the steps to finding true joy again. It is about potential, the potential for all of us to live the life we most want to live, a life where we express our values in all that we do. The aim is to learn to let go of all the things that hold us back from expressing who we truly are in our lives. Joy is not 'happiness'. Joy is something deeper. It is closer to a state of peace than it is to happiness. This book will take us there.
Know Thyself
BY DR CRAIG HASSED
Using his experience as a medical doctor and his interest in philosophy and psychology, Dr Hassed's stress release programme teaches 'mindfulness', a simple and effective way of relieving the stress and fatigue that we experience in this modern life. Mindfulness increases self-awareness and observation which helps us all in our day to day lives, both professional and personal. Know Thyself is a practical guide which explains the link between our mind and body and teaches a program of renewal to find the balance that we all need.

Secret Garden Of Spirituality
BY ANN RENNIE
Secret Garden of Spirituality is a book about hope and living life well and purposefully. It offers glimpses into eternity and explores, in a whimsical way, the secret garden of the soul. There are words of advice and common-sense, reflections and recollections and an abiding belief that faith enables us to find the heaven within and to live that out in the world. The secret garden of each person's spirituality is unique and inviolable; a place to nurture the interior self, a place where goodness can grow.
