Review "Leslie Reyes shares deeply personal stories of trauma and triumph in this wise and inspiring guide to grabbing the handlebars of life and steering it exactly where you want to go."-Jen Sincero, New York Times Bestselling Author of You Are a Badass"A relatable, inspirational story about mental health, motorcycles, and the incredible changes that can happen within us when we decide to learn to ride."-Carolyn, aka "Doodle on a Motorcycle", YouTube Motovlogger"The Zen of Learning to Ride a Motorcycle is really a manual on how to live in this world. Leslie Reyes' confrontation with one of her greatest fears, riding a motorcycle, made her aware of ten essential practices or habits that she needed to develop in order to overcome blocks to safely ride a motorcycle. In the process, she realized that by not having developed these habits much earlier in her life, she continued to replicate and repeat self-destructive patterns over and over in relationships, jobs, and when making important decisions. While this book at times feels like a joyride into the past, Leslie quickly takes you to the edge of a cliff. You will spot aspects of yourself in this book, and hopefully it will trigger the vulnerability that it takes to heal as Leslie has shown us." -Regina Petterson, Psy.D., Clinical Psychologist"Read this book to be inspired by Leslie's demonstration of the human spirit's will to pursue healing, epic love, and adventure."-Jen Burch, Hightail Hair Founder"This is a must read for anyone who has struggled with trauma, mental health challenges, and any of the myriad stresses we all endure in life."-Jennifer Hondru, Reiki Master, Yoga Teacher, and Mindfulness Teacher"Honestly, this book is amazing. I laughed out-loud, I felt empowered, and I cried. I find myself thinking of the ten Zen principles outlined in this story from time to time, and I continue to learn from them. Really. This is a powerful book." -Sherri Todd, BSN, RNC-NIC, NICU Nurse"This
