description: If you have ever suffered a great loss, this book has a message for you, one you will hold in your heart forever. In this true story the author seeks and learns to embrace the great gifts which await all of us on the other side of grief. From the first page to the last, readers travel with the author on a shamanic journey of power animals, angels, an Indian Chief and Princess, all lending their support for transforming even the most profound loss. This story begins when Cathryn, an author and teacher, sells everything and starts across country in a small motor home to promote her newly released book. Half way through her journey she discovers that Max, her faithful, canine companion, has a fatal, cancerous tumor. With six months of professional commitments before her she finds herself embroiled in a crisis over which she had no control. And yet, guided by the same dear companion she is losing, she is brought to an expanded vision of life, one that all readers can bring into their own lives. “There were few intermissions—few moments to catch my breath before the next wave of exploration crashed against the shores of my reality. Participating in this process became a vehicle enabling me to reclaim a passion long ago lost. I scaled its cliffs with the precision of a mountain climber, followed the clues like Lewis and Clark, healing the wounds of present and past, searching for the trail that would help me successfully respond to this crisis…” “MAXIMIZED” is entertaining and compelling.
