A poet like David Whyte turns words into transcendent vehicles for spirit. With What to Remember When Waking, this celebrated writer and teacher reveals how our reality is created through conversation with the universe - and how we can create an identity robust enough to meet life's gifts and demands.

On this new six hour audio-learning course, Whyte tells us how to live at the frontier between the spiritual and physical needs of everyday life; how deeper states of attention amd intention can transform our own identity; and how we become more courageous. more present to the deeper understanding of ourselves, our loved ones and our world.

A deeply engaging voice, literally and figuratively. I wish this had been available to me young artist. Nonetheless, it is perhaps more powerful to me now. Thank you!

Superb poetic wisdom for creative enterprise

I lost my mother suddenly 2 months ago. David’s masterful voice (both literal and figurative ) has been a beacon in this experience. And beyond. A must hear.

Bravo to David Whyte

Philosopher-poet David Whyte is worthy of hanging on every word. There is much to be gleaned here about life and living and being fully alive.

I’m biased because I really enjoy his voice, but the performance makes this book. I find it inspiring, sincere, and captivating. Many of the stories he tells helps give context and insight to the poem, and that gives me a deeper appreciation to his perspective. Found this book incredibly moving and dear to me. I’m grateful to have discovered it.

David Whyte provides that intangible lift that the stresses and strains of everyday existence have a tendency to drown out. I look forward to easing into his poetry and philosophy as I untangle my life upon waking. Thank you for taking the greatest risk of all and sharing your whole self with us. Always grateful.

Beautiful book
