Dr. Judith Orloff will visit San Diego and Los Angeles to speak, meet readers and sign copies of her latest book, The Ecstasy of Surrender: 12 Surprising Ways Letting Go Can Empower Your Life, in four upcoming events.

She will appear at 7 p.m. on May 22 at Barnes and Noble, located at 10775 Westview Parkway in San Diego. On May 31 from 1 to 4:30 p.m. she will host a workshop and book signing at The Center for Spiritual Living, Westlake Village in Los Angeles.

An assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the University of California-Los Angeles and intuitive healer, Orloff combines her training in conventional and alternative medicine in attesting that miraculous things happen when we stop pushing, controlling and trying so hard. Her new book is filled with strategies and solutions for surrendering anything that stands in the way of an extraordinary life, including stress, obsessive relationships, toxic people, money worries and fear of death.

Orloff dispels many outmoded ideas about health, aging, sex, power, beauty and money by showing that instead of defeat, surrender is the missing ingredient to success and bliss. It allows us to daily live in a passionate heart zone with faith in our self and the divinity of all life. 

Of The Ecstasy of Surrender internationally renowned inspirational author Marianne Williamson says, “It takes you straight into the light: our surrender to a love and power greater than our own. Dr. Orloff nails it.”
