This book is a practical and experience-based guide to greater self-knowledge and spiritual awareness. Being attentive to the deepest desire of our hearts helps us to discover that God's will is already implanted in us, rather than lying somewhere "out there" for us to search for. Tracking our moods enables us to choose what is life-giving in our daily encounters and what leads to greater freedom. This valuable guide helps lay people familiar with the principles of St. Ignatius of Loyola, as well as those who would like to learn more about him.
