Meditation Guide Offers Roadmap for Healthier Life

DENVER - May 12, 2015 - PRLog -- Spiritual awareness is no longer the property of conventional religion. A new book by Denver-based expert Lauren Skye aims to help Americans discover their spiritual selves and improve overall health through meditation. Now available at bookstores and Amazon.com, Spiritual Amnesia: A Wake-Up Call to What You Really Are is praised as a “practical user’s guide to the spiritual self.” Spiritual Amnesia examines the controversial topic of exploring spirituality apart from conventional religion and addresses the question of spiritual awareness in the metaphysical realm. Skye, a professional meditation facilitator and founder of the Colorado non-profit Inner Connection Institute, engages readers to help them de-stress and become empowered to live more authentically.

“Today, many people overlook the possibility of exploring their spiritual selves because of the connection to conventional religion,” said Skye. “Either they don’t consider themselves a religious person – and automatically cut themselves off from the topic of spirituality – or they eschew any discussion of spirituality as just being too ‘out there.’ By dismissing spiritual awareness as a category, many are missing out on greater self-discovery.”

Spiritual Amnesia offers readers the opportunity to consider spirituality – and mindfulness through meditation – in a way that doesn’t impose traditions and philosophies that no longer work in today’s world. Skye explains that many of her meditation students are very skeptical when first discussing their spiritual selves, but slowly open up. To encourage newcomers, Skye modeled the book on her classroom technique. For example, the meditation techniques taught in Part 1 are the same that students experience in her Colorado classroom, or in online and teleconference classes. As a result, the book is an ideal option for those who wish to experience these teachings at their own pace.

“I was able to change my life completely through spiritual perspective, moving from a fear-based existence to a place of empowerment and contentment,” explains Skye. “In my teaching and private practice, I've been honored to witness the transformations of many people through spiritual awareness and conscious meditation. These transformations have been so profound that I was motivated to get the word out about the power of experiencing oneself as a spiritual being and of living life with spiritual perspective. In writing Spiritual Amnesia, my goal is to help more people across the country.”
