Liz Gracia is an up and coming self help author now residing in Colorado. Her first nonfiction self help book is based on her true story of a quantum spiritual awakening that took place on the enchanting Island of Nantucket. It was over a period of 8 months during the year 2003 that this story unfolds. This compelling, magical and mystical story is the basis for her ability to provide self help and wisdom to all of us of the awakening process within and the realization of eternal connectedness and divinity.
