‘Back to Life ~ Finding the Dream’ charts the author’s personal journey from stress of work, life and bereavement, to finding new purpose, passion and meaning in life. Set in 1998, the book is written in the form of conversational letters to the author’s father, who died from cancer four years earlier, from various locations, in Ireland, England and Wales.
“Suffering from information overload, overwhelmed at work and overshadowed by unrecognised grief, after bereavement?
That was the reality of my reality, until I started writing to my Dad four years after he had died from cancer.
In telling him the stories of my life, love and learning since his death, I found healing, peace and a life of passion and purpose. I found my way ‘Back to Life’ and back to dreaming a Big Dream.
I hope that my letters to him may help do the same for you.
With Love, Clodagh.”
Author, yoga teacher, sailor and ocean racer, Clodagh Whelan lives and teaches in Dublin, Ireland … when she is not sailing overseas. ‘Back to Life ~ Finding the Dream’ is the first in a series of four books, which chart the highs and lows of Clodagh’s adventures, at sea and ashore; discovering the joy and challenges of sailing, following the dream to sail to the Azores and on to racing across oceans with the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race.
