Awakening Quote by Cynthia Germanotta
“I always start my day with two things that really ground me. One is a book of daily inspirational readings called 'The Book of Awakening.' Basically, it talks about having the life you want and being present in the life you have. I also write three things I'm grateful for in a gratitude journal.”
