Excerpt On a cold, dark, overcast afternoon thirty years ago, a ray of warmth and light shown into my world from a most unexpected source: the eye of a giant Humpback whale. In my young twenties and already old with disillusionment at the state of the world, I was trying to escape my despair by spending an afternoon at sea on a small boat. Without much hope of success, I was asking “whoever might be listening” for a sign of something worth living for—some indication that there was light at the end of the tunnel in this struggle of a life I was barely enduring. That afternoon, my prayers were answered by none less than the largest living creature on the face of the Earth. Lying despondent on the deck of the boat, disappearing into my mental malaise, I suddenly found myself staring into the eye of a being the size of a large office building. My gaze was locked into the penetrating gaze of this mammoth animal who surfaced from the depths just enough to peer over the bow of my boat right into my face. Our eyes were only three feet apart. There was no distance between our hearts. Our souls were already one. I immediately dissolved into the depths of this being’s essence—a vast inner sea of spacious emptiness, allowing anything and everything, embracing all that I was and so much more of life than I could ever intellectually comprehend. My mind went silent. My inner turmoil disappeared. I entered into a sanctuary of profound, gentle union with my own self in the form of a huge ocean creature. In a very real sense, I’ve never left that sanctuary. I’ve carried with me to this day the feeling of fathomless total acceptance I received from the whale. That taste of the spaciousness of my true, natural state has inspired me to search for ways to incorporate that sense of allowing into every aspect of my life and being. My dream in life is to become like the whale—a vast safe haven for weary hearts, a refuge from the slings and arrows of life where people can come to rest, reconnect and recharge.

The Small Press Book Review
“Inner Coach: Outer Power” by Keith Varnum

Varnum describes himself as a "soul consultant" who helps individuals get in touch with their desires and define their goals, and then develop a strategy for spiritual and personal growth based on these. The source of his teaching others is his own experience in his earlier life of looking around his world "for examples of people who know how to free themselves from tribal collective limitations—mainstream cultural beliefs—in order to access fresh possibilities of human potential." Teachers, friends, acquaintances, and even sometimes strangers offered Varnum what he was looking for. He also learned about developing his and others' potential from being sensitive to nature and from his own studies, introspection, and counseling others. Varnum's exceptional and enriching openness to all aspects of his life is reflected in the style of “Inner Coach, Outer Power”—it's part autobiography, self-help, vignettes, and portraits of varied persons.

Varnum's book offers enlightened advise along the lines of the self-help genre. But more than this, it is an engaging tale of how the author "looked around" in his own life for examples he could learn important spiritual and practical lessons from. Open to all aspects of life in order to learn important spiritual and practical lessons lost to most people, Varnum holds himself out as an example of how to assimilate diverse positive lessons gained from others and to keep the focus necessary for the reader to reach her or his aims.

Napra Review Magazine
“Inner Coach: Outer Power” by Keith Varnum

The title—referring to the powerful wisdom and magic conjured when we listen to and harness our inner knowing—is the key to an amazing potential. Describing supernatural events, extrasensory exploits, and paranormal powers, the author’s stories of how his inner coach aids him in manifesting outer power reads a bit like an Indiana Jones action adventure for the New Age. Some readers may be convinced that these things could never happen to them, but my advice is to enjoy the excitement and try opening to the suggested possibilities. Starting with an expanded view of physics, Varnum encourages readers to see out-of-body travel, journeys with extraterrestrials, levitation, and plants that talk as everyday realities. His experiences with rebirthing, angelic visitations, parallel realities, and meetings with the ascended master, St. Germain, pay push the envelope for what we consider to be normal but, the author promises, these fantastic examples of outer power become commonplace when we tune in to our inner coach.
