A Voice in the Stillness: Slowing Down and Listening Up
“The fact that you were born, that you were created, is enough.”
Terri-Lynn Ledger seemed to have it all—a husband and two children, a strong faith, and a successful career—but, after almost two decades in the demanding corporate world, her job was made redundant. Her busy lifestyle terminated abruptly. Her world shaken—yet she was inexplicably calm—and from this came the inspiration for what is written in these pages.
This soothing, yet thought-provoking book is a compilation of real-life experiences of finding balance between responsibilities and being true to your self. The stories are woven together with the deeper guidance that Ledger discovered when she embraced ‘slowing down and listening up’.
A Voice in the Stillness is for those of us who have come to the point in our lives where we feel that something is missing, that something is wrong, that there must be something bigger and deeper going on. It is for those of us who are eager and intrigued to learn how to quiet and train the mind to listen, to trust the wisdom of our soul, to remember the fullness and completeness of who we are, and to look at the future with joyful expectation.
A Voice in the Stillness is a vulnerable and honest account of self-discovery and realization, and a practical guide to transformation and evolution. The author’s reawakening is raw and profoundly universal.

Each life story she shared made me feel as though I was peeling back some of the layers of my own life. I got to know and understand myself while living vicariously through, Terri-Lynn. I only wish there was more to peel!
I was able to reflect and I found an inner peace knowing that if she could rise above all that life threw at her, I could too.
Thank you for sharing your story.

They say everything happens for a reason and this book found its way into my hands at a point in my life where I was going through a major transition of self-growth. I have read chapters over and over to absorb every learning the author wrote through her personal experiences. The wisdom and knowledge shared in this book was exactly what I needed at this moment in my life. This is more than a book- it's a guide- to reference how to understand, balance and appreciate who we are and how to truly enjoy the journey of our own paths. This book will stay on my bedside table for years to come. It is an absolute must-read for everyone. I thank Terri-Lynn Ledger for sharing her story as we can all gain something absolutely amazing from it.

In this world the importance of taking time for physical and mental health is stressed daily...I think we forget spiritual health is also important to alleviate the stress that distracts us from living fulfilled lives.
This book inspires and encourages me to recognize truth, and to value the importance of taking moments to be present and conscious.
I identify with the intimate life experiences Terri -Lynne shares. I realize I am not the only one who has the same thoughts, feelings and experiences. Her voice is universal ... it is easy to identify with and guides you to a place where you can discover how to listen to your inner self and recognize synchronicity to find peace and strength.
I find myself picking up the book now and again when I could use advice and guidance. Thank you Terri-Lynn for sharing your experiences and wisdom openly and honestly. I am going to gift this book to my loved ones!

A voice in the stillness is an honest and thought-provoking story of the author, Terri-Lynn Ledger. This book came to me when I needed it the most. It took me on a journey and showed me a world beyond what I used to see and experience everyday. It talked to me as if it knew what was happening in my life, gave me advice and helped me calm down my chaotic mind. I revisit this book quite often and let it guide me and remind me of why I'm here. I highly recommend this book to those who are searching for meaning.

The contents inside each chapter of A Voice in the Stillness held onto me like my favorite sweater. As I read I felt more and more connected with the Author. Terri-Lynn Ledger reminds us that in a sometimes chaotic world we need to remember to get back to who we really are, to rediscover ourselves and to love the person who is with you every day of your life...YOU! If you are looking for a book to move you, this is it!!! Bravo Terri-Lynn, Bravo.

This was the first book of the self help genre I have read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Throughout the book I found myself folding the corners of many pages to refer back to over the last several months. Terri-Lynn's personal experiences and perspectives provided opportunities throughout the book for pause and self reflection. I believe this book would be particularly helpful for individuals who are currently experiencing or seeking a significant change in their life.

A brutally honest examination of ones life and the busyness that we allow to fill our days. The author illustrates the journey she took to slow down and reconnect and what she learned along the way. This book helped me to reflect upon how I use the moments in my day and challenged me to continually be more self aware and find balance.

Terri-Lynns book was a well written reminder that we need to take a step back and slowdown and do it on the parts of our life that don’t require rushing.

This is a great time in history to slow down, reflect and listen to your inner voice. This read brought to light for me what’s important and allowed for true reflection of things I had thought I had lost.
Great read and highly recommend if. Also, have a journal near by to capture your own thoughts.
