~ Joseph Goldstein, author of  Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Awakening

“Humans today are being asked to make a profound leap in consciousness.  We are the first generation in 200,000 years to know that the universe is not just a space filled with various objects but is in fact an ongoing creative process. No longer can we think of ourselves as separate individuals trapped in a tiny world. We are in fact a wave of creative energy that has been traveling for fourteen billion years. With her new book, What’s in the Way Is the Way, Mary O’Malley has created a process where each of us can enter into this deep truth of ourselves. By following her lead, by learning to dwell in our deep nature as a daily practice, we come to feel that joy of astonishment that accompanies every great awakening of love.”

“It is a sincere relief to read a book that so clearly demystifies the precise things which I have been working on lately. With “What’s in the Way is the Way,” Mary O’Malley has scripted a pathway through confusion into the light of our own consciousness. It is chock full of signposts and refuses to allow you to remain lost. This is a book that everyone should read, particularly those whose lives has been touched by addiction (and that is everyone).”
~Tommy Rosen, Author, Recovery 2.0

It’s a book to take where ever you go.”
~Andrea Adler, author of The Science of Spiritual Marketing and Pushing Upward
