Description
This brilliant and soulful memoir by Rebecca Stonehill takes us on a deeply personal journey in search of meaning and grounding when sleep just doesn’t come. This exquisite memoir goes far beyond what it means to live with chronic insomnia and mood disruption, but it also explores what it means to truly live when everything around you feels tenuous, fragile, raw, and dark. The Sky Within is a spark of light, a warm and friendly reminder that when we feel most lost and alone, there is solid ground beneath us and a brilliant sky that weaves us back into being.
Rebecca Stonehill’s uncanny ability to spin silk with each word makes for an incredibly rich and poetic journey through the rivers, caves, and valleys of a life that honors fierce love, deep grief, and soulful inquiry as a way to live authentically and courageously. Whether or not you have traversed dark terrain in your life, The Sky Within will resonate as a testament that we don’t need to have all the answers or find the “cure” for what plagues us in order to live a rich and meaningful life. The Sky Within is an essential and exquisite read for each and every one of us! It reminds us that cultivating a willingness to just be with what is can profoundly impact living an enlivened and wild existence. It will touch you in delightfully unexpected ways.
