Eat Pray Love is a book you may read as everything. An encouraging book, chicken soup for the soul, spirituality, yoga notes, travelogue, and even philosophical essays. The author went abroad travelling not long after her divorce, tasted delicacies in Italy and enjoyed the satisfaction brought about by desire; she cultivated herself in India, sitting quietly and mediating every day; she followed her belief and purified her body and mind; lastly, she met love in Bali, found herself back and regained mental and physical balance.
