My Book

Welcome to sensory mindfulness and empathy. There is much to learn in this modest book. My hope is to draw you into the fullness of empathy through practicing sensory mindfulness. Drawing on well-noted professionals to lay the groundwork, I integrate the stories of my life and invite you to discover and reflect on your experiences in understanding yourself and others. I want to serve as a catalyst, invoking new ways to communicate and encourage you to consciously draw out the empathic behavior you already exude. My stories are of sight and blindness, race and culture, and socioeconomics. You will learn that sensory mindfulness kindles a contagious curiosity. When you retrain your brain to a more complete understanding of experiences, consciously tapping into senses alongside eyesight, it will improve your perception and communication with people and the world around you.
