Try Softer

From the moment Tom Newnam sat down to write what his heart told him would be a much needed, new kind of self-help book - till the day it was ready to be published - the words on these pages streamed more through him than from him.

“It was clear to me, during the entire year and a half it took to write this book, that all the while I was sharing helpful information about my personal journey, I was, at the same time, describing everyone’s dance with life,” recounts Newnam. “I am both humbled and honored to have had the privilege of journaling such an inspired gift from Spirit.”

A refreshing departure from more “typical” self-help books, Try Softer is as entertaining as it is enlightening. Rather than preaching to you about all those things you should be thinking and doing, this book inspires you to recover those soulful dreams, desires, and ways of being...originally born into your own heart. Using a gentle, massage-like approach, the author respectfully shows you how to slow yourself down, relax, and release painful blocks keeping you from experiencing true intimacy with life. Once you are reintroduced to your most authentic self, finding your truest life path, purpose and mission becomes effortless. The old way of fighting against yourself simply floats away... like a feather in the wind.

As the universally respected contributor of this book’s Foreword, Dr. Michael Bernard Beckwith—a most inspirational man who has gracefully shared the stage with renowned teachers of self-healing and compassion such as Oprah, Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lama—suggests to those entering these pages with hopes of changing their lives for the better: all you need to do is “Soften, and let this book’s tenderness flow into your heart.”
