_________________

It's 3 a.m. and Elizabeth Gilbert is sobbing on the bathroom floor. She's in her thirties, she has a husband, a house, they're trying for a baby – and she doesn't want any of it.

A bitter divorce and a turbulent love affair later, she emerges battered and bewildered and realises it is time to pursue her own journey in search of three things she has been missing: pleasure, devotion and balance. So she travels to Rome, where she learns Italian from handsome, brown-eyed identical twins and gains twenty-five pounds, an ashram in India, where she finds that enlightenment entails getting up in the middle of the night to scrub the temple floor, and Bali where a toothless medicine man of indeterminate age offers her a new path to peace: simply sit still and smile. And slowly happiness begins to creep up on her.

I liked the answers she received, which indicate that we maybe shouldn't worry so much, and maybe should even enjoy the journey.

The spiritual revelations.

Just read for the second time. Takes a totally different meaning at different points in the life of a woman.

An important read

Heart lifting

Just wondering why this wasn’t edited to remove the “end of disk one” “end of disk two” etc. it’s very annoying.

Love the story

Having a similar experience now from the male perspective. Found chapters 57, 58 & 68 very helpful.

Revelatory and beautiful

Wonderful… so generous in sharing her spiritual growth, I am already planing to return to some chapters… a great guide on how to follow your heart

Why did I wait so long to read!!

A very satisfying ending and yet I’m sad to leave. I started this EG journey with Big Magic which is still my favourite but all roads eventually lead to this one. Thank you Liz for opening your heart and soul and taking me to so many amazing places

Brave warm and worth the adulation it has received

Surprisingly funny and refreshingly downright self-deprecating in equal parts. A story of awakening to the power that resides within all of us.

Masterful, Honest, Vulnerable, Authentic

It was like having a friend recount stories from their lifetime. it was well written & easy to follow.

Relatable and easy to follow.

The story gives good worldly insights. Can’t decide if I love it or hate it.. but it’s thought provoking. However the recording skips like a scratched c.d.

Thought provoking
