“The Daily Flame is a potent, profound, magical, and at times hilarious blast of Divine Remembrance that is desperately needed on this planet and in our hearts. Thank you, Lissa, for helping us stoke our inner flame one day and one heartbeat at a time. Brava!”
SERA BEAK—bestselling author of Red Hot and Holy: A Heretic’s Love Story and Redvelations: A Soul’s Journey to Becoming Human
“The Daily Flame features user-friendly love letters from our core Divinity—our Inner Pilot Light—to our everyday selves. The tone is warm, affectionately down-to-earth, and often playful, again and again inviting us to deepen our access to the heartland of our Divinity no matter what our condition may be. Each love letter is compassionately presented and offers us a support that we may have assumed was just not there. Considering them can be a breeze, a light-hearted dance, and it also can be a challenge. Sometimes what’s offered is a tasty hors d’oeuvre—other times a substantial meal, something to really bite into—but at all times there’s a sense of a feast close at hand.”
ROBERT AUGUSTUS MASTERS, PHD—author of Spiritual Bypassing, Transformation through Intimacy, and Bringing Your Shadow Out of the Dark

CHRIS GROSSO—author of Indie Spiritualist, Everything Mind, and Dead Set on Living
“Lissa’s new book gently, deliciously, and powerfully confronts one of the major challenges along the spiritual path: the difficulty many of us have of taking in teachings and practicing spiritually on a frequent and regular basis. Her Inner Pilot Light’s love letters to all of us are so sweet, passionate, and tender; so sincere, unconditionally loving, and well-meaning that I’ve found myself touching in on them often. Flowing with nondual wisdom and love, her book is a read that keeps on giving—a must-have for everyone on a spiritual Path—in fact, for everyone.”

“Pick up this book whenever you doubt that the flame of light and love burns eternally within you. You’ll find short, ecstatic messages that will caress you with love and inspire you to transcend any temporary setbacks and limitations. Lissa Rankin shares how during difficult times in her life journey, she had to surround herself with a ‘faith bubble’ to protect herself from the naysayers—both those in her environment and those in her mind. This book is your daily bubble to keep your faith intact. Equal parts wisdom, laughter, and passion, it will attune you to your own guidance while opening the gates through which synchronicity, awe, and gratitude can flood your life.”
DAWSON CHURCH, PHD—author of Mind to Matter: The Astonishing Science of How Your Brain Creates Material Reality

The words in this book will touch a place deep inside that knows the Truth, and you will be ignited to live from love rather than fear.”
CHRISTINE HASSLER—author of Expectation Hangover, master coach, and podcast host
“Lissa’s teachings on the Inner Pilot Light help us get in touch with the unharmed, whole, and holy space within us. Most of us don’t know what we think or feel or even who we are, and as many tools as there are to teach us, our truths can often remain elusive! With this body of work, practiced by hundreds of thousands worldwide, Lissa shares her essential wisdom with us. Immediately applicable and essential access to our inner wisdom.”

Reviews
Library Journal
Founder of the Whole Health Medicine Institute, physician Rankin (Mind Over Medicine) unites healing and spirituality in letters from one’s “inner pilot light” (that original spark of the divine) that serve to encourage, inspire, and soothe. The daily messages of unconditional love emphasize that readers are worthy of such and can find hope in surrendering to “Divine Will.” The pilot light puts readers in touch with spiritual parts of themselves, and by connecting with these aspects, they will find the strength to endure and thrive in the midst of misfortune or tragedy.
VERDICT Rankin’s unique offering will be appreciated by anyone open to enhancing their spirituality.
