what seemed like a life of happiness, beauty, and television fame, yet inside she was living a life of darkness and hopelessness. Her every step felt as though she was stumbling through life without direction until she finally collapsed and surrendered. "It was not until I was broken and stripped of every possible defense," she writes, " . . . that I found the courage to be vulnerable enough to truly open the gates of my heart." This is where Book of Solace begins. It was within the source in her heart, where Anja began to rebuild her life from the sole perspective of Love.

No religion is needed, no guru, no church. The source is within each person, always ready to be received. With Anja's compassionate voice, the Book of Solace gently leads those who are disheartened back to their source, giving them a new opportunity to find, rebuild, and live a truly beautiful and joyful life.

"I am here to remind you that within your heart is a place of sanctuary. A sacred place where you can find shelter, where you are unbreakable, the realm of unconditional Love . . . This is why I am writing to you today. As I step aside to allow the voice of Love to speak through me, I will provide a space where you can rest for a while. A space of solace and hope dedicated to reminding you of the eternal light you carry within."-- from the Introduction
