Offering hope to a world in turmoil, Breathing Love is a guide to practicing love even when it’s not easy and even when we don’t know how. With the goal of greater inner peace, outer harmony and deeper connection, Lee changes how we look at love; from something to be acquired, to something we embody with intention.

Whether in a relationship or not, in the prime of life or nearing death, you’ll be encouraged to move beyond the pain, pride, and fear that keep you from real love. The short, accessible meditation practices offered in Breathing Love, provide inner solace and a deep sense of purpose.

Part One offers compassionate wisdom for expanding the experience of love within yourself and asks you to contemplate what might be keeping you from full capacity loving. It also explores the difference between your usual yet limited sense of self, and your unified greater Self, experienced through compassionate action and divine kindness.

Part Two asks you to consider that your truest life purpose lies in offering a more expansive, less personal love into every relationship and circumstance of daily life. It also addresses periods of self-evaluation, such as during major life transitions and near the end of life, and how you can embrace these with peaceful resolve, and leave a legacy of pure love behind.

Through intimate personal stories from Jennie’s own life, you’ll feel deeply assured that this call to love in action is possible no matter what life presents. Using the meditative practices given in each chapter is easy, whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or new to meditation. Each of these creates greater spiritual intimacy within yourself and more authentic connection with others. By making life a meditation of breathing love, not only will you find yourself, but you will find all the love you ever desired.
