New Non-Fiction Release Provides Guidance for Adults Seeking Self-Knowledge; Book by Karen Lee Turner, Released by Dog Ear Publishing

Nashville, TN, March 13, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Many people are busy: busy in their careers, with their families, busy making it from day to day. As we become absorbed in the minutiae of making a living and raising children, we forget to take time to, as Socrates suggested, “live the examined life.” Fortunately, author and educator Karen Lee Turner has created a method for harried adults to make time for themselves in a meaningful and productive way. Feast for the Journey is part workbook, part instructional text, part story, and all the components make for a most informative voyage of self-discovery.

The program at the heart of the book is based on the premise that “most of us want to live well, love well, and do good work, and we must feed our lives in order to do so.” The search for an enriching, more centered life is achieved with four hands-on courses: an honest self-assessment, practices to help each individual cultivate a meaningful life, tips for “finding and freeing your voice,” and creative methods to celebrate the changes and “seasons” of life. Each chapter offers opportunities for readers to organize their own thoughts as well as concrete tools for taking action.

Feast for the Journey, published by Dog Ear Publishing, is a method for people, individually or in small groups, to “try a new vision and direction for moving forward—all in a nourishing, peaceful, and creative setting,” the author writes. Author Karen Lee Turner has created the methods espoused in this book after many years of teaching non-traditional college students. A resident of Nashville, TN, Turner is an artist, musician, and a retreat leader with a doctorate in education from Peabody of Vanderbilt.
