Expect a Miracle

Kathy Freston, a meditation coach, offers a hands-on guide to finding a life partner. She observes that modern romance often turns into a dispiriting chore, a frantic hunt, or a cold game of strategy. Many people, she notes, have discovered that these approaches leave them stuck in negative thinking, unmet needs, and mutual blame. Chasing an image of what they believe will be appealing, they lose touch with their real selves and with the stable, nourishing partnership they hope for.

Freston describes her own experience of falling into this same painful pattern and eventually escaping it. Drawing on Eastern philosophy, A Course in Miracles, and practical, grounded spirituality, she shows readers how to grow in self-awareness and open themselves to the genuine love they long for. Her approach keeps the focus on the reader's own inner transformation rather than on tactics for attracting someone.

The book is written for anyone who is dating or hoping to start a serious relationship and wants a more thoughtful way of going about it.
