Grounded in Chaos, (Paperback)

Faced with monumental life changes, Nezneski had no choice but to weave a new life. This story about rising to the challenge of forced change and isolation is prescient and timely. Thrown into sudden life-altering changes trigger chaos, turmoil, and deep emotions. There is hope and unexpected blessings in change. There is life on the other side of chaos. Facing adversity head-on, Nezneski learned to love again and experience joy.

"Driving near Savannah, it hit me. I went through big life changes when I was in North

Carolina. It never would have happened if I had been living anywhere else. I

don't know what it is about North Carolina. But if you want to throw your life

into utter upheaval, move to North Carolina. But batten down the hatches and

close the storm shutters.You are in for an emotional hurricane."

In what felt like an instant, Nezneski lost her home, life savings, a thirty-four-year marriage-and

considered ending it all. Prayer, meditation, therapy, Reiki, journaling, and

guardian angels kept her afloat. The Marines jogging shirtless on the beach by

her house didn't hurt, either. "Thank God for the shirtless Marine." This is

her journey from turmoil to tranquility, despair to self-care, chaos to

clarity.

"Be here now. This is mindfulness at its most reductive essence. My greatest hope is

that others can benefit from my story. In addition to loving myself, I have

learned that I am never alone."
