We Are All Travelers- Donald Altman

Publishers send many authors to me to pitch their books. I turn down most of those requests. I rarely read fiction books. I just don't have the time. But this author and this book intrigued me, and I'm glad I decided to read it.Travelers is a fictional account of a mental health therapist whose world opens up after the death of his daughter. Forced to confront a new paradigm and challenges, he goes on a journey of soul growth.Donald Altman, M.A., LPC, is a psychotherapist, former Buddhist monk, international mindfulness expert, and award-winning author of over 20 books translated worldwide. Featured as an expert in The Mindfulness Movie and profiled in the Living Spiritual Teachers Project, he currently writes Psychology Today’s Practical Mindfulness Blog. His best-selling The Mindfulness Toolbox won two national publishing Ben Franklin IPBA awards as the best book in both the Psychology and Mind-Body-Spirit categories. Two other books, Clearing Emotional Clutter and The Mindfulness Code were both chosen as “One of the Best Spiritual Books of the Year” by Spirituality & Practice.Donald served as Past Vice-President of The Center for Mindful Eating and taught mindfulness to over 15,000 healthcare and business professionals. His newest book is Travelers, a novel about a grieving psychiatrist who finds hope, healing, and renewal when a mysterious traveling pet therapist, a sentient canine, and a suicidal young patient come to the psych ward. Donald’s Facebook Reflect Group is at: https://www.facebook.com/mndfulpracticesYou can find Donald at https://www.mindfulpractices.comYou've been listening.
