Amani "], "item_description" : "At its heart, Realize It - Affirmative Contemplation is a personal and collective awakening manual - a 21-day journey inviting readers to question the beliefs that shape their lives and to align those beliefs with the life they truly desire to live.Dr. Annah K. Amani, a Ugandan-born scholar, author, and humanitarian, writes from a life that bridges two worlds: the ancestral and the global, the spiritual and the pragmatic, the African and the universal. Drawing from her own experiences of war, exile, motherhood, scholarship, and spiritual awakening, she extends an invitation to readers to embark on a similar journey of introspection, unlearning, and conscious evolution.Dr, Amani's premise is simple yet profound: our beliefs determine the reality we live. If we wish to live differently, we must first believe differently. Through reflections, stories, and affirmations across twenty-one themed days, she explores four sacred life spheres - Faith, Love, Wellbeing, and Abundance - which together form the foundation of a fulfilled and purposeful existence.The book is at once autobiographical and philosophical, grounded in indigenous African wisdom yet conversant with global spiritual and intellectual traditions. It is part memoir, part meditation guide, and part manifesto for a new consciousness - a consciousness that reconnects humanity to its divine creative essence.Author's Journey: From Survival to EnlightenmentThe story of Realize It is inseparable from the story of its author. Born during civil war in Uganda, Amani survived political upheaval, displacement, and cultural dislocation. Her early life - spent fleeing violence, adapting to exile in America, and navigating identity between continents - became the crucible for her philosophy of transformative contemplation.After earning degrees in Health Administration and a Ph.D. in International Family and Community Development Studies, she realized that academic knowledge alone could not heal the dissonance she saw between developed and developing worlds. Her work with rural Ugandan communities revealed a paradox: while the West sought to reconnect with organic living, Africans were being urged to industrialize and abandon subsistence lifestyles.This contradiction awakened in her a deeper question: What if development itself is a myth? What if true progress lies not in imitation of others, but in realizing our own wisdom?The search for these answers became Realize It - a book that marries scholarship and spirituality, science and indigenous philosophy, intellect and intuition.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/827/394/9798273943568_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "25.00", "online_price" : "25.00", "our_price" : "25.00", "club_price" : "25.00", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
