Jennifer Winn Johnson Turns Self Help Book into Flourishing Travel and...

Jennifer Johnson's bestselling book 'An Awakening Walk - 500 miles to Self-Love and Acceptance on the Camino de Santiago' became the catalyst for launching her tour business, Winn Journeys. Today Jennifer Johnson's tour guide business is flourishing.

Winn Journey's tours are a turn- key themed experience for the seasoned traveler, as well as a first time tourist with such convenient features as hotel bookings and luggage transport. New tours have been recently added to the semi-annual Camino de Santiago pilgrimages including a 'Magical, Mystical, Fantastic France' Tour and destination retreats in the U.S. and abroad.

The book 'An Awakening Walk' is a narrative describing of the journey that shook the author to her core. Shedding layers of self- recrimination and self- judgement she carried through her life, she found herself broken wide open. Over the 500 mile trail, Jennifer released tears of grief, anger, and finally learned to embrace those sides of herself that were banished out of shame, fear, and social conditioning. This book is a brutally honest tale of one woman's dogged tenacity to break through the barrier of her own self-abandonment in which she spent decades conforming and bending to the will of others, and finally her triumphant deliverance into unconditional self-love.

The physical and personal challenge for the author turned out to be a gut wrenching, self-exploration towards finding herself. Along the trails of the famed Camino de Santiago of Spain, Jennifer sheds her false self, layer by layer, and at the end of her walk, embraces the authentic beautiful woman she longed for. Old wretched pain and wounds rise to the surface as she purges and heals, step by painful step. The book offers a scenic portrayal of the beautiful landscapes, hotels and inns, churches and cathedrals, local purveyors, and cuisines native to the culture, woven poetically through the author's observant eye for colorful imagery, delectable aromas and architectural design.

About the Camino de Santiago
The Camino de Santiago, also known as the "Way of St. James," is the route, or way, taken by pilgrims to the shrine of the Apostle St. James the Greater, located in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia in northwestern Spain. 1 The Codex Calixtinus (written approx. 1138 -1145 A.D. and attributed to Pope Callixtus II.) is an anthology of background details and advice for pilgrims following the Way of Saint James. It includes sermons, reports of miracles, and liturgical texts associated with the Apostle Saint James, as well as practical information. For centuries, spiritual seekers have believed The Remains of Saint James are buried in this cathedral. Walking the Way of St. James was one of the most important Christian pilgrimages
