Awaking in the Here and Now

Paths to Inner Peace and Connection

This book is an invitation to truly get in touch with the flow of everyday life, experiencing presence and mindfulness in the here and now. Margrit Irgang shows that spiritual awakening is not something detached from reality but that it happens right in the middle of life: in breathing, walking, listening and encountering ourselves and others. Based on her personal experiences, she combines Eastern wisdom with Western life practices. The result is a book that touches both the heart and the mind. Instead of teaching a method, it opens spaces for silence, direct insight and trust in what is. Awakening in the Here and Now is a quiet yet powerful book for those of us who seek depth in a noisy world. It offers guidance in a time of turmoil and reminds us that peace is not found on the outside but within ourselves. This is an inspiring companion on the path to consciousness, simplicity and inner freedom – poetic, clear and authentic.
