Glow-Worthy: Practices for Awakening Your Inner Light and Loving Yourself as You Are-Broken, Beautiful, and Sacred

by Katie Silcox

Overview

Today, we’re dealing with high stress levels, anxiety, and a deep sense that something is missing from our overly technologized lives. We long for community, spiritual authenticity, and a feeling of belonging in the body.

You are not alone, and you are not permanently stuck.

Glow-Worthy’s powerful framework combining modern science and wisdom from global spiritual traditions will help you live a fuller, more authentic life—no matter your background or faith.

It’s possible to live from a place of deep connection to something that is far sweeter, far more powerful, and far wiser than you ever knew. To feel aligned in your mind and heart with a sense of purpose that resonates all the way to your soul. And to recapture an authentic relationship with your physical, breathing body that, in turn, can deepen your engagement with the world around you.

From Katie Silcox, New York Times bestselling author of Healthy, Happy, Sexy, Glow-Worthy is a guidebook for accessing your inner light—that guiding spiritual force within us that connects us to the Divine (whether you believe that to be the Universe, God, or another Higher Power)—and letting it illuminate your innate power and worth.

Through guided meditations, journaling prompts, and more, you’ll:

• Strengthen your direct line to your own wisdom
• Discover your own unique spiritual path
• Establish a spiritual practice that works for you
• Embrace the belief that every part of you (even the messiest ones) is worthy of love
• Gain a new perspective on your body, your emotions, and your daily life

Your inner Divine is the source and spark of spiritual light that resides within each of us. And the only person who can truly connect with and nourish that sacred inner spark is you. Glow-Worthy gives you the tools to connect with your Higher Self—and shine from the inside out.
