Jack Kornfield—author of A Path With Heart:

"Dear musicians, you hold in your hands a beautiful offering that can enliven your embodied presence, and bring heart wisdom to your art."

Rachel Podger—violinist:

"A truly inspiring book: easy to dip into before a stressful concert, to read deeply from cover to cover, or to keep close as a practical handbook of exercises and meditations. I will be recommending it to every musician I know."

Lucy Russell—violinist, Fitzwilliam quartet:

"Ruth takes us by the hand with compassion, wisdom and humour, guiding us through the challenges most frequently experienced by musicians — including her own...You will never feel alone as you read this book. Ruth holds a safe space for all of us, together."
