For nearly five years, the Soul Artist Journal, a weekly e-column/blog by healer, chef, and author L.R. Heartsong, explored the art of living a meaningfully connected existence, celebrating "a life for the senses."

Subsequent immigrants didn't confront or assimilate into an "American" or "Canadian" culture, but rather into one of the 11 distinct regional ones that spread over the continent each staking out mutually exclusive territory.

What if more isn't the road to happiness? And what if doing less is actually the key to a greater sense of well-being, an increased sense of nourishment, and the ability to thrive?

In 1942, the Gestapo sent out an urgent transmission: "She is the most dangerous of all Allied spies. We must find and destroy her." The target in their sights was Virginia Hall, a Baltimore socialite who talked her way into Special Operations Executive, the spy organization dubbed Winston Churchill's "Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare."
