#1 New York Times Bestseller • More than 1.5 Million Copies Sold

Thomas Moore's now classic work provides a powerful spiritual message for our troubled times.

In Care of the Soul readers are presented with a revolutionary approach to thinking about daily life—everyday activities, events, problems and creative opportunities—and a therapeutic lifestyle is proposed that focuses on looking more deeply into emotional problems and learning how to sense sacredness in even ordinary things.

Basing his writing on the ancient model of ""care of the soul""—which provided a religious context for viewing the everyday events of life—Moore brings ""care of the soul"" into the 21st century. Promising to deepen and broaden the reader's perspective on his or her own life experiences, Moore draws on his own life as a therapist practicing ""care of the soul,"" as well as his studies of the world's religions and his work in music and art, to create this inspirational guide that examines the connections between spirituality and the problems of individuals and society.

Any additional comments?

I wish it was not abridged however I did get SO much out of it.

Peter Thomas is a wonderful Narrator

I love this book to put on before I go to sleep. It’s only 3 hours so I fall asleep to his voice fairly quickly and when I have trouble sleeping I find the topic alone soothing to my soul

Short but sweet

I have no doubt this will be one I come back to again and again. The ideas are presented in a way that is easy to understand but there is plenty of room for artful interpretation.

The narrator was excellent. I felt like it was the author himself relaying the ideas

Supurb. Sublime. Supreme.

Supurb writing. Sublime narration. Supreme listening. I suggest you listen again. And again. And again. You will learn something new each time. ♡
