Summary:

Grace and Tranquility maps a shared journey down natural paths of ease and calm found in stillness and the world's persistent beauty. Through exquisite nature photography and meditative wisdom, Grace and Tranquility guides readers into a daily practice of peace, even in the midst of conflict and uncertainty. Chapter topics range from "Inside the Living Storm" to "Walking Softly Beyond," and author Eric Alan's explorations include "The Beauty of Doubt," "Aligning with Purpose," and "Intimate with Integrity." He approaches relationships with the earth, people in our lives, and even politics and money with equal candor and clarity.
