Few of us will get through this lifetime without going through at least one major upheaval, a time when life feels completely upside down. Whether the upheaval comes in the form of a world-shaking event or something as intimate as a broken relationship, medical emergency, or personal loss, we can be left feeling completely untethered. In her book, In Deep Shift: Riding the Waves of Change to Find Peace, Fulfillment, and Freedom, author Valarie Gangus explores the idea that our most turbulent moments are actually the gateways to expanding our consciousness. We can begin a process that forces us to wake up, transform, and come home to our true selves.
