About this listen

A spiritual wellness guide, Spirited shows you how to find more fulfillment and peace in modern life by applying timeless Buddhist wisdom.

Beneath Candice Kumai’s polished image as a wellness icon, she was tormented by anxiety, competitiveness and deep inner suffering. It wasn’t until she re-embraced the Buddhist principles she’d been taught in childhood that she began to change her life for the better—even making a pilgrimage to her mother’s home country of Japan to study in the mountains with Buddhist monks.

Full of wisdom and raw honesty, Spirited recounts her journey and shares the Buddhist practices that transformed her life so you can, too.

"Candice Kumai is the wellness & spiritual teacher for the next generation, a PIONEER of her time." (Dr. Andrew Weil, founder/director of the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine)

So beautiful and honest, full of tears and true gems. The only review I have left, and oh my goodness, so very deserved.

Amazingly raw

Candace, I have never left any audible review and I know now I am saving it for the ultimate best. If I could leave a million stars review, I gladly would. Before this audiobook, I never knew of your existence and you have now left a permanent positive impact in me. Listening and finishing your audiobook within 2 days is like meeting a real soul sister that I could just vibe with and talk for hours on end, you are a breath of REAL fresh air. I just love how raw and insightful of the topics you spoke, of just being true to your deep core and just being a nice person in general. I will not spoil it for the others but I cried with you when you spoke about Cece, from one cat mama to another, thank you for loving your kitty till the very end, she is endlessly thankful for the entire 20 years. I am off now buying one of your books and bingeing wabi sabi on spotify. Love ya and big virtual hugs and dont you dare stop impacting others. <3

Wow is an understatement..

I hadn’t heard of Candice Kumai before listening to this book. Hearing her share about her anxiety and depression was a pleasant and welcome surprise. I really enjoyed her story and the concept she shares.

Pleasantly surprised
