British author and artist James Norbury was inspired to write this book by his experience as a volunteer for a crisis hotline. He took notes and recorded his thoughts, and then, inspired by Buddhist philosophy, spirituality, and the idea of mindfulness, he created this book to share the ideas that helped him through difficult times.
The book can be read from cover to cover or dipped into whenever inspiration is needed. James hopes the words and images will inspire others to stop, be themselves, enjoy the silence, and look at life in a new way.
