Nicky Clinch - Surrender: Break Free of the Past, Realize Your Power, Live Beyond Your Story

Guided by her forthright willingness to examine her own soul and by years of clinical experience, Nicky Clinch teaches self-discovery by means of compassionate, straightforward and powerful practices.

DR GABOR MAT, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF IN THE REALM OF HUNGRY GHOSTS

This book is the antithesis to the new you rhetoric of much of the shallow self-help prevalent today and will show you how, under all that conditioning, your most magnificent self is there waiting.

ZOE BLASKEY, FOUNDER OF MOTHERKIND

This powerful, honest book will help you to remember who you truly are and start living in alignment with your soul.

REBECCA CAMPBELL, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF RISE SISTER RISE AND THE STARSEED ORACLE

Reading this book reminds us of all the ways in which we conform and contort ourselves, and dilute our own urgent truth, and how it is high time we stopped doing so, forever. A battle cry from and for the soul and spirit. Surrender to it.

EMIN RUSHTON, EDITOR OF OH MAGAZINE AND CO-AUTHOR OF SATTVA

This powerful book is an important and timely contribution to the collective consciousness at this extraordinary time in our evolution. In order to birth this, first it had to be lived. It was a privilege to witness that process. Nicky laboured and delivered with grace and serenity. Relax, release and surrender. There is no greater message for now.

EMMA CANNON, MASTER ACUPUNCTURIST, MODERN MEDICINE WOMAN AND AUTHOR

Authentic, loving, supportive. Nicky speaks straight from her heart to yours. And wht she says is worth listening to.

BRIGID MOSS, RED MAGAZINE

Nicky Clinch is a force of nature, her work and words are sublime and this book is a gift to humanity. For all those who are ready to let go and step into something bigger, better and brighter, Surrender is THE book.

SUZY ASHWORTH, QUANTUM TRANSFORMATION COACH AND BUSINESS MENTOR

Nicky Clinch writes as she lives with courage, clarity and a strong heart. She shares her own journey honestly and openly and invites us all to do the same. Surrender is more than a book. Its an invocation of a more real self in a more real world. Nickys words will touch you deeply.

YAACOV DARLING KHAN, SHAMAN AND BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF JAGUAR IN THE BODY, BUTTERFLY IN THE HEART AND SHAMAN

Nickys words and teachings are true medicine for the soul. Surrender will help you remember the truth of who you are, who you were born to be and who you have been all along. Get ready to come home.

MEL WELLS, SPEAKER, COACH AND AUTHOR OF THE GODDESS REVOLUTION

Surrender is an empowering deep-dive experience into your own consciousness. Embodying the frequency of surrender, global thought leader Nicky Clinch clearly transmits how you can take back your power so that you can live a life of limitless possibility. Superb!

REGAN HILLIER, SERIAL ENTREPRENEUR, PHILANTHROPIST, QUANTUM TRANSFORMATION COACH AND GLOBAL SPEAKER

This book tells a true story that reveals many deeper truths about the journey all of us are on. It is filled with insight and practical guidance for outgrowing the limits of ones own history, and I recommend it to anyone ready to listen to life as a basis for their further maturation.

DR DAVID NORRIS, INTERNATIONAL EDUCATOR AND COACH

In Surrender, Nicky shows us a clear roadmap for overcoming obstacles, awakening to our true power and breaking free from our past. A must-read if you are serious about living an inspired life.

To my children, to whom I owe it
to show this life is truly worth living.

To Emma, my anchor and my wings.
Your spirit soars far and wide, my friend.

To my husband. My soul mate. I love you.

Surrender is not a weakness.
It is strength.
It takes tremendous strength to
surrender life to the supreme
to the cosmic unfolding.

So when you are listening to somebody, completely,
attentively, then you are listening not only to the
words, but also to the feeling of what is being
conveyed, to the whole of it, not part of it.

JIDDU KRISHNAMURTI

When Im asked what I do, I explain that I help people grow. Grow? Grow into what? they ask. Well, firstly to grow out of who they thought they were, but in essence are not, I reply. Oh, they say. Which allows them to grow into who they were born to be, I continue. But how do you do that? they ask.

Actually, strictly speaking, I dont do that. What I do is help people clear away what is in the way of their growth like a butterfly with mud or oil on its wings that prevents it from unfurling them, or a rose bowed down with so much rainwater it cannot reveal its full glory. When you clear away enough of what is blocking and weighing someone down, then growth becomes possible again. And I dont mean the kind of growth through which you get bigger or wider or taller. I mean the kind of growth that is a maturing; a maturing of the body, heart, mind and soul. This is a fundamental part of our nature, to mature and evolve and bloom. Id even dare to say it is our destiny, as a caterpillars destiny is to become the butterfly; there are no questions asked, it just is. The destiny of the rose seed is to become the rose; there are no questions asked, it just is. We are no different. Deep within us is a calling, a powerful gravitational pull that draws us home into the fullest, most whole expression of ourselves. In essence, my job is simply to remind you what is already there within you, shining a light on what you have forgotten, so that you can realign once again with who you already are and who you were born on this Earth to become.
