Overview

We can shift our perspective and change our world.

Life can be exceptionally gratifying when we realize that our thoughts create our interactions and our interactions create our relationships. To truly relate is what living is all about.

This book is meant as a seed. Its message offers inspiration for living an authentic and transparent life. As a resource for life, it unites what is seen as separate and heals what is wounded.

Readers will learn how to transform:

• Pain into purpose
• Conflict into confidence
• Fear into curiosity

These are the shifts we can make to build a better life and a better world in which to live.

Editorial Reviews

“Our life comes under the control of one or the other - presence in love or escape in fear. Perfect Practice offers us hope by defining the wisdom that pain offers. This wisdom brings with it freedom from our own fearful thoughts.

I have been entranced by the many interesting stories, lessons and gems of wisdom scattered throughout this book. I believe you, the reader, will too.”

“The imagery in this book is vivid and the ideas paradigm shifting. Once I began reading, it was hard to put down.” -- Kim Welsh, Upward Rise

“As a coach, speaker, and writer, Mary Corning is a storyteller of the first rate. I invited her to speak with my team of corporate recruiters about the art of influencing others, and for ninety minutes she had them actively engaged in exploring concepts of speaking truth in uncomfortable situations. Through it all Mary demonstrated her exceptional sense of humor, listening skills, and ability to ask questions that go right to the heart of the matter. It was an inspiring team meeting—one of our best!”
