Reviews"Mark Nepo returns. Hallelujah! Our ever-enfolding, always-growing, supremely astute sage of our times sings to us once again and I couldn't be happier! Through the comforting beauty of Falling Down , I felt understood, awakened, and expanded, not from fantasy but from experiencing, through his words, the deeper majesty in my everyday life. The majesty that is in all of our lives. This will be yet another of his masterpieces I will return to, again and again, to luxuriate in his exquisite expression. You'll want to clutch this one close to your heart, to make it a part of you. What a gift!" -- Kris Ferraro , International Energy Coach, speaker, and Author of Your Difference is Your Strength , Manifesting , and the #1 Amazon bestseller Energy Healing "Amid this luminous new collection of wisdom, Mark Nepo offers one of the most robust and tender teachings on grief I have come across. In Mark's hands, pain becomes poetry, and enlarges our hearts enough to carry what we may have thought we couldn't." -- Mirabai Starr , author of Caravan of No Despair and Wild Mercy "Mark Nepo has led workshops at Omega Institute for many years. His classes are like a gathering of travelers at an oasis, a nourishing stop on a long journey. Now, in this treasure of a book, we all get the chance to experience the magic Mark creates--the learning, the beauty, the healing. As Mark says, 'We need each other to heal one more time than we are broken.' This new book is sublime." -- Elizabeth Lesser , co-founder of Omega Institute, and author of Broken Open and Cassandra Speaks, "Amid this luminous new collection of wisdom, Mark Nepo offers one of the most robust and tender teachings on grief I have come across.

Mark uses language to weave us into the web of life, so we feel held, seen, and a part of something beautiful. He has done it yet again with Falling Down and Getting Up . Mark has travelled into the depths of what it means to be human and brought back this book for all of us. When you fall, and you will because we all do, this book will be an outstretched hand helping you to stand again, and take the next step." -- Beth Kempton , bestselling author of Wabi Sabi: Japanese wisdom for a perfectly imperfect life, "Once more, I'm inspired as Nepo hits the perfect note that is needed in these most challenging times. It's easy to open one's heart to his writings because he never lectures. Rather, he leads us with stories, poetry, metaphors, significant questions, and lessons he's gleaned from the wisdom of authentic teachers. All this has a ring of deep truth. Nepo gives wind to our sails as we navigate the waters of falling down and getting up. I recommend this book with unreserved enthusiasm." -- Justine Willis Toms , co-founder and host of New Dimensions Radio and author of Small Pleasures: Finding Grace in a Chaotic World "Mark Nepo returns.

Falling down is part of the human journey, but Mark shows us how it can become a path of spiritual transformation. In this book, Mark unfolds the courage that can befriend us in learning the dance of falling down and getting up with grace." -- Baptist de Pape , author of the book The Power of the Heart "In Falling Down and Getting Up, Mark Nepo shares a lifetime of hard-earned wisdom through his moving, heart-warming vignettes that are like songs for the soul taking us home to ourselves. Like a jazz virtuoso, Mark weaves his poetry and teachings to move gently, yet persistently, into your blood and bones as he helps us move from the fear of pain and suffering to the rebirth of ever getting back up as we learn and grow together. I hope you will find a way to read this book slowly, deeply, and let it nourish you with its gentle, wise and heart-felt guidance." -- Michael Brant DeMaria , Ph.D., four-time Grammy nominated Recording Artist and author of When All Is Lost "Once more, I''m inspired as Nepo hits the perfect note that is needed in these most challenging times.
