    About this ebook

    Is something more calling to you? Are there dreams youre longing to fulfill?

    Now is your time to begin.

    Camillas house reflects her inner life. She is always busy making her front yard immaculate, but she lives with the hidden truth of sealed-off messy rooms and a backyard filled with trash and weeds. One day, Camilla hears a ringing bell behind a closed door and courageously chooses to enter.

    The transformation that follows reveals all that is possible when we listen to our hearts. Opening with a simple, inspiring story, The Flowering House provides the reader with a guided journal for personal explorations, and calls to all who long to awaken to and more fully express their purpose.

      About the Author

      Words of Praise

      "The Flowering House will move your heart and inspire you to journey toward a life of authenticity, truth and purpose. Paige Stirling Fox not only tells a great story, but lives it."

      Tommy Spaulding, New York Times bestselling author of It’s Not Just Who You Know

      "The Flowering House is a beautiful book of self-discovery that provides practical tools for self-transformation. The story encourages us to look deep within ourselves and find the courage to allow our soul to dance again."

      Marcela Grant, author of Luminous Mountain

      For Mom, Dad, Neil, Nancy, Daniel, Lauren, Leigh, Fab, Kaitlyn and Victoria, who never forgot about what I’d hidden away.

      For my dear sister-friends, Ann-Michelle, Elizabeth, Joanna and Marnie, who were right beside me as I opened the door.

      For my wise angel teachers, Eimear, Harriett, Jacqueline and Rita, who helped me pull out the really big weeds.

      For poet and peacemaker, Mattie J.T. Stepanek, who tinkled the first bells.

      And most of all, for my beloveds: Chris, Liam, Declan and Pumpkin, who always saw that I could dance, cheered me on when I first started to play my music and continue to scatter new seeds with me in our garden. I will always love you.

      Foreword

      by Harriett Simon Salinger

      The Flowering House may be the next step on your personal path. I subscribe to the Yellow Brick Road philosophy: that each of us is on a very unique journey, where our greatest invitation is to pay attention and to notice what draws us. What is calling you? What attracts your attention? These are the questions that this simple, charming story poses.

      I so firmly hold in my heart that there is a unique kernel in each of us; I believe that it is this uniqueness that we are all longing to go home to. And how we travel to get there is an unknown journey.
