Dreaming of a Divine Life is the inspirational true story of a woman who built her life back up after losing everything. Joanne dreamt of a Yoga Retreat in Italy, but found herself with a half built house in the Italian hills and bringing up four children on her own. Yet through adversity, Joanne saw that these problems were a blessing in disguise as there is a purpose to every relationship and a reason for every situation. Readers from all walks of life will relate to Joanne's difficult and sometimes shocking experiences. Through her spiritual awakening she teaches readers how to cultivate their own happiness by opening their hearts and developing self love, peace and compassion for others. The aim of the book is to give hope to those who think that there is no way out of a situation where everything has gone wrong, using descriptions of spiritual practices, eternal truths and secrets to life that will help the reader to awaken their inner wisdom. In her memoir Joanne draws from 17 years of experience teaching yoga, but it is not solely a book for readers that practice the discipline. Inspired by the work of Elisabeth Gilbert and Louise Hay, Dreaming of a Divine Life is an engaging memoir with a spiritual twist, which will make readers laugh and cry, and want to fulfil their spiritual purpose and manifest their dreams.
