Chapter 1 of The Freedom Tree - The Journey to Independence

The Journey to Independence

This book is all about creating shifts.

Life is a journey of shifting spaces and the best guide is someone who has already travelled the terrain. Someone who’s already explored the rockier roads and gives you signposts so you can avoid the dead end paths of blame and self-imposed constraints.

Neil James creates such shifts.

You’ll recognise yourself in the experiences and stories within The Freedom Tree and if you feel your life has been going round in circles, you’ll have the opportunity to cover new ground by answering the simple yet profound questions at the end of each chapter.

Freedom offers a path, a way of discovering your true self, no matter how late in life you think it may be.
