Dent Gitchel has worked in the helping professions and studied meditation for 30 years. He has studied in Buddhist, Christian and secular contemplative traditions, and has trained with numerous teachers. He teaches meditation classes and workshops locally, regionally and nationally, and is the author of Pursuing Purpose: A Guide to Finding Meaning Through Meditation.

 "This is a well crafted, gentle, and honest sharing of Dent Gitchel's spiritual journey to discovering his core values and what is most life giving for him. He invites us to follow our own heart's deepest longings and to embark on our personal spiritual journey. His hope is that we too can find that space within that is home to our true selves. Dent does not sugar coat the doubts or other obstacles to be found on this path. But, like the Buddha, he wants to alleviate suffering where it exists, invites us to come and see, and try for ourselves what he has found to be true. This first book for author Dent Gitchel garners well deserved kudos."
