We have navigated our way though the Covid pandemic for three years, and most of us have taken our bruises (and our losses) and survived. But another pandemic has taken residence in people’s hearts—a heaviness, a feeling of doom, anxiety, and sadness about the world. This pandemic is an affliction of the spirit, causing millions to lose all hope that we can create a better future—I call it a Spiritual Dark Age, reminiscent of the Dark Ages between the 5^th and 10^th Centuries. At that time, Tuscan scholar Petrarch wrote, “My fate is to live among varied and confusing storms. But for you perhaps, if as I hope and wish you will live long after me, there will follow a better age. This sleep of forgetfulness will not last forever. When the darkness has been dispersed, our descendants can come again in the former pure radiance.”

We know in our hearts that it doesn’t have to be this dark.  We can follow Petrarch’s advice and shake ourselves out of this. The beautiful thing is that the cure requires no drugs or pharmaceuticals or medical intervention. The cure is just one thing: inspiration. We all yearn to be inspired in a world that does not always feel inspiring.

That is why I wrote a book for the world called, Reawakening the Human Spirit. It contains the secret to finding our inspiration again, healing our broken hearts and reinvigorating our spirits so that we can face the world again with our hearts full. It is a Masterclass in regaining our souls and putting a spring back in our steps, making a difference, and turning things around. I hope you will find Reawakening the Human Spirit helpful and that you will join me and a growing global movement that is inspiring the world and putting smiles back on people’s faces—and fire, passion, and love back in their hearts.
