"What if I were to tell you we are all gods?" This is how Tara, the narrator, invites readers into her illuminating story of self healing after a debilitating depression that triggers suicidal thoughts and sparks a spiritual awakening with the realization that George Lucas was right, the Force is real.
During a wellness retreat in Sedona, Arizona, Tara and her mother Mary, an Irish immigrant home caregiver, attend mind-body-spirit workshops as they struggle to self heal from depression. In this true story, the mother-daughter duo travel the world together inspired by their favorite books and films searching for love, meaning, and happiness as they awaken their awareness and remember their divinity. With the influence of artists such as John Lennon, Ernest Hemingway, and Vincent Van Gogh, in addition to the unforgettable cast of her mother's aging patients introduced under the big tent, O'Grady reveals the secrets of surviving this circus called life using the universal wisdom of Star Wars.
This is a story of heartache and healing. This is a story of mental health and mindfulness. This is a story for anyone who forgot who they are and why they came to the circus.
