The ache you feel is not a problem to be solved--it's a sacred wake-up call to truth, beauty, and wonder.

We are all aching, but so few of us know how to be with and attend to the complexities that surround these aches. You may ache because you hurt, because you have lost someone or something, because you long for something more or for something to be different. Yet aches are not necessarily a sign you are heading in the wrong direction. Instead, they may offer a sacred opportunity to develop a more intimate relationship with life itself. When you choose to stay with your ache and get curious about it, you gain a potential for awakening: to truth, to remembering your wholeness, to the interconnectedness of the seen and unseen, to belonging, or to the next evolution of yourself.

The Ache in Your Heart Is Holy is a guide for those navigating longing, pain, desire, and the unspoken aches that come with being human. Rather than pathologizing our pain or rushing to fix it, this book offers an invitation: to allow the ache to exist, to soften toward it, and to discover its wisdom. Author, philosopher, and meditation educator Coby Kozlowski explores how the ache is an invitation to come home to your wholeness.

The Ache in Your Heart Is Holy is an experiential journey. Drawing from yoga philosophy and Instinctive Meditation, it offers accessible practices and opportunities for personal inquiry that provide a path to awakening, to seeing your ache--and your life--in a new way.
