In her own words Karen says: "I can't easily explain how this book came into being. I wasn't thinking about it-it wasn't planned. Yet one day, my mind was filled with an image of power and peacefulness-a lion and a lamb were lying down together.

Although this is a familiar spiritual scene, this time I sensed something more was to come which resulted in the writing of this book-storytelling tales of transformation and hope...stepping stones toward inner awareness and healing."
