My friend, Susan Bauer-Wu's newly revised book is out! So excited!

Happy Publication Day to this revised and expanded edition of Leaves Falling Gently by Susan Bauer-Wu!

Dealing with chronic illness can be an isolating and challenging experience. Whether it’s you or someone you love, it’s common to struggle with feelings of fear, sadness, or anger as you navigate the uncertainty of your experience. The practices here, backed by research and clinical studies, help those facing illness, as well as their loved ones, embrace the present moment, make peace with themselves, and deepen interpersonal connections. Working through each personal reflection and guided meditation, one day at a time, readers will regain the strength to live fully and enhance their capacities for gratitude, generosity, and love—regardless of the changes and challenges that come.

Updated for the first time since 2011, this new edition offers a refreshed and inviting presentation of Susan Bauer-Wu’s practical advice and includes a new cover, updated front matter, and a few new chapters. It has been revised to expand its audience to include loved ones and caregivers, as well as those living with serious illness.
