Manifesting Paradise Can a person manifest paradise? Diane did. This book tells the story of her personal journey off the stress-inducing corporate treadmill to her new life of abundance, gratitude and happiness. The high point of this transformation is the move she made with her family to rural Hawai'i, far from her roots in the Midwest. The story recounts key events that shape her transformation as she adjusts to tropical and village life, reconnects to her teenage daughters, finds new friends, develops community roots, practices self-care and deals with free-running neighborhood chickens. Manifesting Paradise shows the power of using transformation tools and techniques to create the life you want. The message is clear: you can create your future if you know what you want, plan for it, and ask for it. But don't skip right to the tools. Let the rhythm of the story reveal them and the magic that is Hawai'i, because the story is about the destination as well as the process. This is Ms. Scheurell's first book.
