Inspirational Book
Mark Sanna, DC, introduces Breakthrough Living: A Journey of Hope and Healing,
the second volume of his Breakthrough Series. This book is not meant to heal physical
ailments—it is designed to enlighten, encourage, and bring hope. Each chapter
concludes with a series of thought-provoking exercises that help to clarify goals, refine
direction, and set in motion the action steps that support the healing process.
Some questions the book answers include: Am I making the choices that will lead me in
the direction I want my life to take? Do I manage my time with intention? Do I view
stressful situations as challenges or problems? Am I following my bliss or am I following
the money? Do I practice giving without strings attached?
