Prayers for Light and Strength: 50 Prayers, Meditations, and Affirmations for Urgent Times - Paperback

by Lyna Tevenaz (Author), Jon Mundy (Foreword by)

We live in exceptionally challenging times. For many people, conventional religion no longer offers enough solace or insight to be useful, and hence the pursuit of "spirituality without religion" has become increasingly popular. But there is a dearth of truly powerful spiritual voices, free of religion's commandments or fables, that can reach the heart and give us inspiration that we can adapt to our needs.

French-American writer Lyna Tevenaz has such a voice. Drawing from her life experiences as an orphan, single mother, and a dedicated seeker who has explored many spiritual perspectives, she offers a powerful collection of 50 prayers for our urgent times. Most of the prayers are accompanied by "active meditations" and brief affirmations that span five major categories of human concern: Relationships, Family, the Self, the World, and the Inner Life.

"Lyna has a lovely voice, soft and tender but deep and serious. I harken to the sound of her prayers." - MARIANNE WILLIAMSON

"I feel as though I've stumbled upon the journals of a saint, the electricity of one who has tussled to ignite her light, and who writes like a dream, yet a human being I can relate to..." -TAMA KIEVES
