Their journey is marked by relentless arguments over various issues, from daily schedules to personal habits, revealing the strain that having a child can place on a couple. Over the course of three years, their conflicts highlight the complexities of love, communication, and the struggle to maintain a harmonious family life amidst the chaos of new responsibilities.
"Eckhart Tolle and other spiritual teachers insist that continuous meditation is possible for us all. Which brings up a simple yet profound question in many of their readers: Is it, really? Can a normal person like me experience an ongoing sense of onenness with the Divine? In The Power of Acceptance, one spiritual seeker attempts to answer this question. Following her year-long attempt to meditate daily, then to remain in the state of meditation as much as possible throughout the day, it chronicles both her significant successes as well as her ... well, learning opportunities. Featuring six honest, in-depth interviews with experienced meditators, it is less an advice book than a refreshingly honest look at this widely-practiced prescription for happiness."
