In this episode of Miles to Zen, I’m sharing a personal book review of The Signs: The New Science on How to Trust Your Instincts by Dr. Tara Swart, who is also the author of The Source.
I wasn’t asked to review this I just enjoyed the book and wanted to share its message with you. It’s a fascinating exploration of how science and spirituality meet, how we can bridge logic and intuition, reconnect with our bodies, and open ourselves to the signs that guide us through life.
If you’ve ever wondered how to recognize signs, trust your instincts, or balance rational thought with intuitive knowing this one’s for you.
