Nepo, who is regarded as one of the best spiritual mentors of our day, teaches us how to be our best selves while navigating the pleasures and difficulties of life. He addresses some of the oldest and most profound problems of the soul, such as: How can we remain alive and afloat in the face of life’s turbulence?
What is the key to waking up? No matter where we travel, we cannot avoid the fundamental reality that “what’s in the way is the way.” The soul’s journey is unavoidable. “The point of experience is not to escape life but to live it,” as Nepo puts it.
A prominent presenter on Oprah’s statewide The Life You Want Weekend Tour and a featured guest on her Super Soul Sunday program, Nepo encourages us all to find our true selves. The Endless Practice, like his best-selling The Book of Awakening, is full of stories and insights, advice, and exercises that can help you live life to the fullest.

Love the task and work the light,” says Mark Nepo, who has a profound grasp of our complex lives. I’ve done this ten thousand times on stage, but I never considered trying to live that way in my daily life when the curtain came down.
I didn’t understand I was in my own way until I battled and defeated my addiction; until I put something else in front of me, the life I want would not materialise. Then, one day, I picked up a copy of The Book of Awakening together with all the benefits I had been given.

Summary
As part of my daily devotions, I utilise this. The author is speaking plainly to each individual. His experiences serve as examples, and there are chances to go over them in your mind and apply them to circumstances in your own life.
The age-old question, “What and why am I here on this earth and how do I make the most of this experience and leave a positive legacy?” has become more intriguing and insightful as I continue to study.
