About

The Journey of Energy, Expression, and Emotional Truth

Fire is the element of aliveness.

It governs passion, expression, connection, and the way energy moves through us when we feel fully present in our lives. When Fire flows, we feel engaged, inspired, and emotionally available. When it becomes distorted, we burn out, overextend, react, or lose ourselves in intensity.

In Fire, the second book in the Living the Elements series, you are invited into a story-driven exploration of emotional energy — how it rises, how it is shared, and how it is depleted when expression replaces presence.

This is not a book about positivity or emotional control.

It is about recognising when energy is being offered freely — and when it is being spent in order to belong, perform, or stay connected.

Through symbolic narrative and reflective insight, Fire reveals:

  • how emotional intensity can mask exhaustion

  • why enthusiasm sometimes becomes obligation

  • where passion turns into over-giving

  • how connection shifts when energy is forced rather than shared

  • what it feels like when warmth becomes pressure

Fire teaches that energy is not infinite — and that true vitality does not come from trying harder, shining brighter, or holding everything together. It comes from allowing expression to arise naturally, without the need to impress, manage, or sustain emotional heat.

As with all books in the Living the Elements series, Fire blends story, symbolism, and lived emotional awareness. Each book can be read on its own, yet together they form a larger journey through the elemental patterns that shape human experience.

Fire is for readers who:

  • feel emotionally drained despite appearing “energetic”

  • struggle with over-responsibility, enthusiasm fatigue, or emotional intensity

  • sense a loss of joy beneath constant engagement

  • want to reconnect with authentic expression without burning out

This is a book to be read slowly, with space to notice where your energy rises — and where it quietly leaks away. Fire does not ask you to dim yourself. It asks you to stop setting yourself alight for others.

If Wood revealed the direction of growth, Fire explores the energy required to sustain it — and the wisdom needed to let warmth replace strain.
