Alastair Thompson, author of “A Surfer’s Guide to Enlightenment: Insights From the Ocean on Life, Love and Happiness,” joins the pod live-to-tape from the South Coast of Brazil. Available on Amazon here.
“A book about life, loss, love, and happiness, A Surfer’s Guide to Enlightenment calls us to immerse ourselves in the ocean and learn from her waves and currents. Drawing from his thirty years of experience as a surfer, the author shares insights from the ocean that resonate with all nature lovers. Short, punchy chapters use the ocean as a metaphor to provide powerful insights into personal growth, mindfulness, and enlightenment.
The book explores themes like acceptance, resilience, and the beauty of imperfection. It encourages readers to embrace life as it comes. The author uses vivid storytelling and relatable anecdotes to draw parallels between the challenges we face while surfing and the challenges we face in everyday life, then highlights how these experiences lead to greater self-awareness and, eventually, fulfillment. Each chapter invites readers to reflect on their own journey and discover their own, personal path to enlightenment.”
