'It's interesting, fun and it's relevant to all of us ... Perhaps the key thing for me is the feeling that Jo is talking from her heart rather than writing from her brain ... It's important.' - Sarah Stacey, Victoria Health

Jo Bowlby is a world-renowned Shaman, coach and mentor. This very special book is filled with insights and practices which for centuries were only known by spiritual teachers and their devotees, but which Jo Bowlby has used to underpin her powerful work as a Shaman, coach and mentor.

With a focus on resilience and finding balance, Jo turns ancient teachings into life-changing practices that will provide you with a skillset designed to help you navigate life's ups and downs. Whether you seek stillness, want to reclaim your freedom from a mental struggle, or simply inject some wonder into your world, this inspirational book will help guide you on the way.

'Really enjoying this. Not your usual self-help book. It's succinct, very well written and not selling nonsense. Highly recommended.' - Levison Wood

Reviews for A Book For Life: 10 steps to spiritual wisdom, a clear mind and lasting happiness

"Bowlby is charismatic, fun and wise. * The Times Magazine * Essential reading for anyone. * Will Young, Musician and Actor * Life changing on every level. * Trinny Woodall, Founder of Trinny London * Spiritual intelligence has arrived! A fresh, compelling and practical guide to the inner peace and creative power within each one of us! * Alberto Villoldo PhD, bestselling author of One Spirit Medicine and Shaman, Healer, Sage. * A Book for Life: Ten Steps to Inner Happiness is a treasure trove of wisdom from various traditions, ranging from Shamanism to Buddha's philosophy, and Zen to Western philosophy, all of which are intertwined with a plethora of ancient parables. Serving as a light house, Jo's book is a guide to discovering one's aptitude along the journey of life, towards the goal suitable to each person's disposition and mental proclivities. I highly recommend this book. * Geshe Dorji Damdul, Former Translator to H.H. the Dalai Lama, Director/Tibet House, Cultural Center of H.H. the Dalai Lama, New Delhi * What I absolutely love about this book is that Jo Bowlby draws on her deep experience in both the spiritual Teachings and modern psychology and translates it for people like us - into easy to understand practical tools we can apply in daily life. In a way she's done the deep research and homework for us - so it's a bit like a cheat sheet! A wealth of information and tools in there. * Sahar Hashemi, OBE, Founder of Coffee Republic and Skinny Candy, and Keynote Speaker * Zesty, like a tangerine to be peeled in mindful contemplation. Simple yet all-enveloping, like an attractive blue sky. Flowing like water. As intriguing as the finest thriller. Charming and surprising, like a shooting star. Nourishing like honey. Ancient and full of energy, like a volcano. Jo's book is an offer of freedom to dance our way home: a true and truthful balm of practical wisdom on the ""simple"" art of life. * Nicoletta Fiorucci Russo De Li Galli, Philanthropist and Contemporary Art Collector * The most exciting book to be published for years, this is a guide to the art of life - it is absolutely beautiful. Start now! * Kate Reardon, Editor in Chief, The Times LUXX Magazine * Really enjoying this. Not your usual self-help book. It's succinct, very well written and not selling nonsense. Highly recommended. -- Levison Wood"
