Bryant McGill and Jenny Young are such a dynamic duo of inspirational life-changers. I have been motivated on a very personal level by their work. Simple Reminders and its beautiful content have changed my life. I have been a member of both Bryant's facebook page and Simplereminders facebook page for a long time. Bryant and Jenny speak from their heart. Simple Reminders is the "GO TO BOOK" for top inspiring quotes and vivid illustrations, taken personally by Bryant and Jenny. Simple Reminders Book teaches values and that everyone in this world matters. This book will be a treasure to have in your library collection. I will be purchasing copies for friends and family.

As a longtime fan on social media, I find Simple Reminders a very helpful addition to my daily meditation practice. The writing and images provoke a heartfelt starting point for deep reflection. Bryant McGill has an amazing ability to distill profound concepts into just a few memorable sentences, and Jenni Young’s nature photography provides a serene backdrop for his words. Together, they have created an empowering book filled with meaning and beauty. More important, Simple Reminders keeps it simple — something to treasure in today’s over-busy world.

This author is a philosophical soulmate. He captures what is true and healing, with tremendous clarity that can only be based on insight born of lifelong, challenging experiences. What he draws out, and together, is great wisdom.

It is a gentle reminder of what I have learned, like him, the hard way. It is a call to action. It stimulates gratitude and hope for those early in their quest to understand and heal. LOVE-Divine Intelligence-Nature is my humble understanding of our highest power. Our spirit calls us and Bryant brings the essence of life into a focus step by important step. The end is profound. I remind us "Seek and he shall find."


Please check it out and spread the word. I will purchase many more as gifts. Ours is a loving source and shared legacy.

Thank you, Bryant for being open and giving the rest of us great revelations that were MEANT to be shared by YOU, and with each of us. You have tapped the wisdom of the ages, and in such a kind and coherent way.

Thank you, thank you, again and again. For myself and readers yet to come. And all our beneficiaries. You have inspired me to discover what I can best do to make a humble and enriching difference with my life. It will take faith and dedication. I will find confidence in your peer support. I am here for you as you have been here for me, my friend. Kudos.

"Once you connect with yourself, it is impossible to be lonely or desperate."

We are searching in life for the gaps, for what is missing to make ourselves complete. However, he says, we are already complete. Pain through un-ease and fear guided him on his journey.

As a child he spent a lot of time alone in nature away from the bullies and cruel people. This is where he mourned his loss of innocence.

Your true purpose is finding your unique self and to do so with happiness and freedom from fear....
A life of success comes from seeking a place of beauty.


Beauty is within you. Feel your pain and let it go.

Set your intentions -your goals.
Be grateful for what you have.
Be still and listen.
Accept.


Commitment with determination brings success (your blessings).

This book is a compilation of affirmations that helped him on his journey. It is personal. Perhaps a reader can use this as a guide to help his or her healing.

Life is full of highs and low, but it's during the dark days that the positive insights and support of your friends can be the comfort needed to uplift your soul and get you back on track. Simple Reminders is just that. A friend sitting on your shoulder when no-one else is around, whispering encouragement and inspiring a passion to be your very best.

A spectacularly beautiful book, full of the wisdom and inspiration that can boost your faith and help your spirit soar. It will encourage you to dream bigger and believe that you can do and be whatever your heart desires.

This book was just published in 2015 but I wish I would've been able to read it years ago. It's filled with so much knowledge and wisdom, it spoke right to me, like reading my mind and feelings. I haven't even finished the book yet, but I know it's one that I will come back to over and over again to read. It's definitely worth getting a copy. This book is truth. It is amazing and I think everyone needs to read it.
