Five Days Alone in Death Valley in Search of My Authentic Self
Mark Sangster
We’re more connected than ever. Yet somehow, we’ve never been more alone.
In the middle of the night in Death Valley, alone and injured, Mark Sangster had a vision. After five days on his own in the wilderness with only his thoughts and (often painful) memories to guide him, he pushed through loneliness, grief, pain and experienced eye-opening visions. In the vast, dark sky over the California desert, the twinkling of thousands of stars met his gaze, and they offered him more than healing. Mark found a spark—an inner ember that would become his own guiding star.
Inner Ember is the story of one man’s journey to find something larger than himself and his ongoing efforts to remain connected to the self he discovered ten years ago in the desert—even while living in the grip of our chaotic and disconnected modern age. How can we find and keep close all the joy, beauty, abundance, and peace that is there for the taking?
