Book Signings in Maine! I’m excited to be hosting a special book signing for The Peace Guidebook: How to Cultivate Hope, Healing, and Harmony for the Good of Humankind, which I co-authored with Dr. Katie Eastman. If you’re in the New England area, I would love to meet you in person and sign a copy of the book. The Peace Guidebook explores practical ways we can cultivate more hope, healing, and harmony in our lives and in the world around us. This will be a wonderful opportunity to gather, connect, and talk about what it means to truly live and practice peace in everyday life. I hope you’ll stop by, say hello, and join the conversation. #authorevent #peace #booksigning #maine
