You are here.

Not by accident. Not too late.
Right on time.

Contemplative books and quiet practices by Spike Humer.

A Line to Carry

I am always more than I think. More than I do. More, even, than I am.

— from The Waking

What I do in this moment determines what becomes possible in the next.

— from The Standing

The past doesn’t need to be fixed or redeemed or finally understood. It needs to be allowed to be what it was.

— from The Companion

I chose devotion. Not devotion to becoming, exactly. Devotion of self.

— from Always More Than I Think

The ground became solid for the first time.

— from The Waking

Cover of The Gift of This Day: Meditations for the Grieving Heart by Spike Humer

Meditations for the Grieving Heart

These meditations were not written to get you through grief but to sit with you inside it. A companion for the tender, unfinished work of loss.

Book Two

Spike Humer is a contemplative author and the founder of SoulWord Press. He writes books, meditations, and quiet practices on becoming, grief, gratitude, and the inner life. His work is for anyone who has felt the pull to go deeper — not to fix what’s broken, but to remember what was never lost.
