Seriously, Are You Taking The Peace? (PDF)

Peace in a box? If only it were that simple...

It seems we can buy almost anything today and yet those fundamental feelings of happiness, contentment and peace (all free to those who seek them) are more elusive than ever.

Follow the amusing tale of how one man's humdrum life is transformed when he finds "peace in a box" at his local supermarket and discover how, by learning to "take the peace" too, you can create a remarkable life for yourself and the people you love.

This book combines powerful principles for finding peace with Jim Parkes' own unique brand of humour.

About The Author...

September 11 2001 was the catalyst for change. It was at that point that Jim Parkes realised that he was not following his true destiny in life.

This was the start of a three year journey into making life changing decisions. He was introduced to the concepts of Personal Development in 2003 and then finally, in March 2004, after working 27 years in corporate life for a large utility company, he realised that there was so much more that he was supposed to be doing with his life.

Since then he has never looked back and life has taken Jim into new and exciting adventures.

“This book is 'unputdownable'! I just couldn't stop reading. I read it on my birthday - sitting on the grass enjoying the glorious summer sunshine and looking out to sea, over sand dunes and green fields. What a gift - days later it's still popping into my mind. A great book packed full of great analogies, common sense, practical tips and fun - Jim's warmth and humour shine through every page. It's too good to keep to yourself - you'll want to pass it on. This is essential reading for all peace-takers everywhere - are you ready to take the peace?”

“The great teachers of this planet have told us that life is an illusion that we create. Quantum physics teaches us that if we observe something, we change it. We are all so busy dealing with the distractions of our illusion that we forget that we are human beings and not human doings. This book will remind you of your true nature and how to take the journey that leads you back to that which is within you. Follow the techniques in the book and find the peace that each one of us and humanity desperately needs. It is time for a change. It begins with YOU. Remember, you could be 'The Hundredth Monkey'!!!”
