Unmired

Transforming Struggle Into Serenity

De: Kim Smith

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Mired is being stuck in a rut, locked in a struggle. Flowing without resistance is its opposite. Kim Smith spent her life mired in a quiet struggle until she learned to flow. In 2013, she faced her 40th birthday frustrated, isolated, and obese. Development of a consistent fasting practice changed the flow of her life. The physical portion of her transformation is documented in Unbelievable Freedom, a motivational memoir she co-authored with her husband about their combined 200-pound weight loss. That book was warmly received and led to a growing online community of followers, many of whom noted that Kim's mental, emotional, and spiritual transformation was more dramatic than her appearance change. This inspired her to compile a series of gradual illuminations she experienced along her journey. Starting with Trust Your Body, proceeding to Mobilize Your Mindset and Honor Your Spirit, and finishing with Enjoy Your Life, there are 52 contemplations offered for a yearlong reflection process. Each contemplation has an accompanying dot grid page to invite writing, drawing, or both.
