This is an extraordinary account of a spiritual journey. 
Caroline Sherwood examines the path that led her to seek spiritual teachers and healers, both traditional and maverick. Based on diaries and journals, and written over the course of a lifetime, decades of study and practice are set against the day-to-day details of a memoir in a uniquely powerful combination. 
How do we go beyond our current sense of powerlessness to become a conscious and active teacher? What is the essential reality of our relationship to ourselves and the wider world? How can we help and heal ourselves, while also helping others? 
Whether you are just starting your spiritual journey, or are a life-long practitioner - this is a candid and thoughtful account of following a thread of gold.\nPraise for Caroline Sherwood 
"A deeply textured, well written, no-holds-barred spiritual odyssey that tells it as it really is, and then some. No fairy-gloss here, just the unadulterated facts of a journey through light and darkness that has resulted in a work of extraordinary exploratory power and penetration" Douglas Lockhart, author of The Dark Side of God and The Mar Saba Codex\n"I was pulled into your "voice" like a whirlwind in the canyons of mind…I'm deeply impressed with your memoir. It's truly a story worth telling" Michael Gray, author of Asleep at the Wheel of Time\n"Reading the book you're taken by the hand and come to discover what it means to embark on a journey that leads to a deeper and deeper understanding of our real nature" Johanna van der Schaft, Astrologer and Teacher

Reviews  “Caroline Sherwood provides a valuable service to children in helping them weather the thought-storm of adolescence with the ship of meditation built in childhood.” - By Dan Millman, author of The Laws of Spirit “I became engrossed in Caroline’s book at a time when I was just going to flick through for a quick impression. It’s a lovely and important idea and she has done it beautifully. Please convey my congratulations.” - By Hamish Miller, author of The Sun and the Serpent   (Amanda also introduced the children of Yellow Class to the Magic Meal exercise and she sent me the pictures they painted after doing the exercise with detailed comments about the children’s responses.) “Excellent stuff which deserves to be widely read and used by parents and teachers. The meditations are great and the introduction gets right to the true meaning of spirituality. School R.E. these days is stale and uninspiring - little more than facts about different myths and practices, lacking any real spirituality. I was a teacher for 20 years and used to introduce meditation into school assemblies and P.S.E lessons. I often had about 300 kids meditating in the school hall. Many of them loved it. I would certainly have bought a book like yours.” - By Steve Leighton - Former Head of Science, Millfield Preparatory School
