Find Purpose and Inner Peace through Meditation How do we find more purpose in our lives as we navigate the uncertainty of daily living?

You can cultivate more clarity, confidence and purpose in your life by learning how to meditate. Within these pages, Dr. Dent Gitchel shares his Wholesome Mindfulness approach to meditation, including downloadable practices, developed over decades of practicing meditation and assisting others in mindfulness and compassion-based contemplative practices.

He invites us to follow our own heart's deepest longings and to embark on our personal spiritual journey. His hope is that we too can find that space within that is home to our true selves. Dent does not sugarcoat the doubts or other obstacles to be found on this path.
