Excellent story-telling of such a rich life. It feels very honest and complete with the happenings and the inner experiences that went with them. Reading this was such an enriching experience for me.

I love Joanna Macy. I just struggled with the pacing...but I adore her perspective and her life is a beautiful testament to courage and persistence.

A stunning example of what a memoir can be: part mindful manifesto, part personal healing, part call to action, and all fierce, universal compassion. Joanna Macy has had an incredibly rich and varied life, and has so much wisdom to share. Many images in this book will stay with me for years. I am enchanted by the concept of the Shambhala warriors, and I think that I could be one. This is a great read for those seeking new intention and gratitude in their lives.
