In \u003cb\u003eLife’s Companion\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e, \u003c\/i\u003eacclaimed author Christina Baldwin offers readers guidance and inspiration to this powerful way of expanding our inner horizons and opening our minds and spirits to a deeper relationship with the world and the people around us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete with enlightening quotations, exercises, sample journal entries, and techniques to nurture and encourage the writer and seeker within you, \u003cb\u003eLife’s Companion\u003c\/b\u003e will help you transform journaling into a powerful tool for self-growth, heightened awareness, and personal fulfillment.\u003c\/p\u003e Library Journal \u003cp\u003eMinnesota psychotherapist Baldwin's intent can be grasped from the title of her previous book, One to One: Self-Understanding Through Journal Writing ( LJ 9\/1\/77); she argues that such understanding leads to empowerment and action. At first this work seems programmatic, combining New Age lingo with vaguely pluralistic beliefs. But, like a spiritual quest, it gradually deepens in tone. Baldwin's thought-provoking and serious topic suggestions assist readers in looking within to discover who they are, and the interspersed writing examples and quotations are also (for the most part) first-rate. Life's Companion encourages reflection, silence, forgiveness, trust, and acceptance--the essential qualities of a spiritual life.-- Carol J. Lichtenberg, Washington State Univ.
