Summer Book Special

Summer means longer days, warmer skies and more time to relax and enjoy the things that matter. Which is a perfect excuse to indulge in a bit of ‘‘me-time’’ and lose yourself in a good book. Whether you’re into fiction or biography, wine, food or popular culture, the Daily makes some summer reading recommendations we hope will appeal to your literary tastes...   

Sometimes, if you're lucky enough, you will come across a book that has an energy so great it moves beyond its pages. Seven Sacred Sites is such a book. 
      From the peaks of Machu Picchu and the Camino in northern Spain, to the formidable grandeur of the monuments of ancient Egypt and the magical circle at Stonehenge, the world in which we live has some profoundly awe-inspiring sacred sites.
      Whether you’ve already been lucky enough to experience some of these places first-hand, or hope to one day, this beautiful travel guide-cum-spiritual adventure story provides readers with a remarkable and unique glimpse – historically, spiritually, geographically – of seven of the most profoundly sacred places on earth.
      In every chapter author Serene Conneeley provides readers with details on each of the seven sites, their continued significance in our modern world, their past, purpose and spirituality and provides vital guidance on how you can access the energy and wisdom of each site from home. The author also shares her own personal and deeply- moving journey to each of these seven spiritual wonders.
      Brilliantly written and stunningly produced, the magical journeys within this book will inspire you to dream, to travel and to ponder your own place here on our wonderful planet.
      This book is available in selected bookshops and online. Visit www.sevensacredsites.com.au or email SevenSacredSites@yahoo.com.au to order your copy.
