Whenever I read a wise book, something happens in my body. I feel a sense of bliss, a sense of coming home.
I love this feeling of being at home. At home in my body, at home at myself, at home being just me. Being the Pamela that I truly am.
To me there are multiple ways to get to this feeling. Meditation, a walk in nature, yoga and as I just mentioned also by just reading wise books.
It’s like they’ve a certain energy of the author inside that is shared with whoever is interested in reading the story they have to tell.
To me this energy feels even like a greater gift than the book itself. But, of course, it’s the book that teaches me and nourishes me.
As the beach season is approaching, I can highly recommend to add a beautiful wise book to your bag, next to your towel and sunscreen.
If you’re not into spiritual books, just allow yourself their energy. By opening the book, flip through it or read just one page, you might be able to feel what I feel.
I hope you’ll feel as rewarded as I do.
A few of my favorite wise books:
- Walking with the Bhagavad Gita – Manshuk Patel (Part 1 is the story / Part 2 the explanation, so you will need both. ISBN Dutch 978 90 8141 249 0

I thought after writing my first few blogs that I’d written my story and that my short career as a blogger would end there. Oh, boy, how I was wrong! When I finally started allowing my creativity to flow, I found out it’s endless. It will never stop. And yes, I’m excited, because there’s more…

Next week I sing again in a small theatre in the hart of Amsterdam. It reminded me of this blog that I posted at the beginning of this year.
