Living with openness and honesty is a life-long practice. We would like to share some of the best resources that we have found to contribute to a life of connection and authenticity.

Students of Solsara will often have dramatic and profound openings during the Immersions. Many ask us how they can maintain this new level of openness when they return to their daily lives. We believe the books and resources below will help you in that pursuit.
