Reflections and prayers for pausing, reassessing, and moving forward

Maria Shriver gathers reflections, prayers, and selected quotations around the pressures and uncertainties of daily life. The book is organized as a source of encouragement for moments of reassessment or renewal, returning to Shriver’s idea of “The Open Field”: a space associated with acceptance, purpose, passion, and joy. Its material addresses the challenge of holding multiple roles while making room for personal meaning, offering short-form spiritual and motivational prompts rather than a single continuous narrative. The emphasis stays on reflection, hope, and finding a way forward with intention.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults seeking spiritual or inspirational reflections for everyday life
  • Readers interested in prayers and meditations centered on purpose and renewal
  • Gift shoppers looking for an encouraging, large-print companion book
