📝 Description: The Knowing: 11 Lessons to Understand the Quiet Urges of Your Soul

The daughters of beloved teacher Wayne Dyer share their ever-evolving understanding of their father's timeless teachings. "This book is our song for our father and for everyone, because we're all born with a Knowing--an inner compass, the quiet urgings of our soul that guide us. It is through giving love, offering kindness, and paying attention that we can return to our Knowing." --Saje Dyer and Serena Dyer Pisoni To millions of readers around the world, Dr. Wayne Dyer was the beloved "Father of Motivation"--but to Serena, Saje, and their six siblings, he was simply "Dad." When he died suddenly in 2015, the sisters were blindsided by grief and felt unprepared to navigate life's challenges and conflicts without his guidance. The experience launched them on an adventure from loss to understanding as they came to realize and metabolize their father's teachings with a new urgency, intimacy, and power as they applied them to their lives. As their journey unfolded, they realized their father's wisdom--"The Knowing"--was embedded in their DNA ... as it is for all of us. "We didn't discover The Knowing," write the authors. "We simply returned to it." In The Knowing, Saje and Serena share how they recommitted to the teachings of their father and, in doing so, created their own evolution of his principles that they teach today. They share the 11 lessons that cracked them open and sparked their own spiritual journey, including: - Parented in Pure Love--the joys, surprises, and gifts of growing up in the Dyer family - How the Soul Remembers--how to become a host for miracles instead of a hostage to circumstance - Take Your Shoes Off--bringing stillness to the mind to open your heart to guidance - The Geometry of Forgiveness--change your life and the lives around you with a simple prayer - Especially Love--how to always return to love, kindness, and receptivity The Knowing is a book for seekers young and old, for fans of Wayne Dyer's work and newcomers alike. Here is a profound and loving guide to lead you back--in crisis, in joy, or in this present moment--to the wellspring of wisdom that always dwells within.

Esoterica Books editorial team
Occult literature desk
While beautifully crafted and emotionally resonant, this book is not suited for skeptics or those seeking rigorous academic analysis of occult traditions. It lacks the dense theoretical frameworks found in classic esoteric texts, opting instead for personal anecdote and emotional guidance. Readers expecting complex ritualistic instruction or historical depth may find it overly simplistic. However, for those open to intuitive metaphysics and familial spiritual inheritance, it serves as a compassionate companion. It is best viewed as an inspirational memoir rather than a technical manual, making it unsuitable for serious researchers of comparative religion but excellent for personal healing.

It’s a call to recognize and trust the profound spiritual intelligence that is our birthright.
