Oprah's Super Soulful Books of the Month

Oprah reflects on a book that deepened her senses.

Mark Nepo has become one of my favorite spiritual teachers. his best-seller, The Book of Awakening, came to me by chance as a birthday present. I kept it on my bedside table for two years, dipping into it many, many times. more recently, Nepo's book Seven Thousand Ways to Listen: Staying Close to What Is Sacred has given me the opportunity to expand how I take in people, words, the world. I've loved being introduced, through Nepo's spiritual memoir, to the idea of really hearing, in ways I never have before.
