"George is a middle-management, middle-class, middle-aged guy who hates his job and struggles to stay connected to his wife and teenage children. Most guys might end up with a steamy affair and a flashy car for their midlife crisis, but George gets a quirky, philosophical physics professor named Shiloh. Trapped with this mysterious misfit on his morning commuter train, George is dragged into awkward conversations about love, fear, music, and the meaning of life. Shiloh asks George to beta-test an app he wrote for the new Apple Watch--and with a free watch included, how could he say no? When tragedy strikes, throwing George out of his uncomfortable comfort zone, he learns that Shiloh's app lets him journey through alternate versions of his past. As challenges mount in his own reality, George must make a decision that will change him--and possibly the entire multiverse--forever."--Page 4 of cover.

Insight reveals the science and everyday practice of self‑awareness, showing how knowing yourself better enhances performance, leadership, and relationships.

"Lisa Garr wants you to stop going through the motions in life. She wants you to become aware. Her mission on her internationally syndicated radio program, The Aware Show, and now in her first book, is to inspire positive growth in all areas of life and to bring conscious conversations into everyone's living room. "My goal is to live each and every day in a conscious way. Even the tough times can have moments of awareness, as long as you stay committed to what's real," she says. Lisa's own story is remarkable. Several years ago, a traumatic brain injury rendered the LA businesswoman unable to speak or rely on her short-term memory. She not only used cutting-edge EEG techniques to heal, but also set out to live a different life than what she was leading in her pre-accident days. Lisa also used this moment as a life wake-up call and decided to transform in every way possible including marrying her true love and giving birth to their daughter. She started The Aware Show to bring soul-stirring information to the masses. The woman who couldn't even say a few words is now a radio and Internet sensation with a massively growing audience and huge platform. Here Lisa brings the lessons she has learned on her show from countless interviews with inspirational, spiritual, and New Thought leaders to the pages of her own book. She takes the best of these lessons and discusses how she applies them to her own life, and explains how readers can, too. Lisa knows how to use your will to create what you want on multiple levels. She even knows how to harness energy and use your own maximum wattage to get where you want to go in life. Of course, she knows that life offers several U-turns, too, and she will explain how to get back on track when the road beneath you seems to have crumbled--or when life seems to hit you on the head. Lisa's book will deal with deeply personal topics including defining your own happiness, choosing to love someone else, and conscious parenting. She also includes "Awareisms" throughout the book: "quick hit" life lessons that will in a matter of moments change the way you think and live. Isn't it time to become aware?"--
