If viewed globally, the parasitic diseases pose an increasing threat to human health and welfare. The diseases caused by kinetoplastid protozoan parasites like Leishmania and Trypanosoma continue as a cause of suffering for many millions of people in both tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Leishmania species are found throughout Latin America, Africa and Asia. Trypanosoma cruzi that cause Chagas disease is endemic in Latin America, while members of Trypanosoma brucei group are found in sub-Saharan Africa. Although the past two decades has witnessed commendable research efforts and technical advances in our understanding of the biochemistry, molecular and cell biology of these pathogens, the dreaded protozoal diseases caused by these organisms threaten mankind.

The author postulates that a direct and deep connection between "objective" Nature and "subjective" mind of human beings could exist, and consciousness could be a deep and fundamental property of the universe. This "hypotesis about reality" ("ipotesi sulla realtà" in Italian) does not come from metaphysical speculations or parapsychological purposes, but claims to be based on scientific evidence, and the purpose is to show a new direction to understand certain unexpected discoveries coming from different fields of studies, such as contemporary physics, neurosciences, psychology.

The story starts at the end of the writer's Donna Melanson's old life and continues as Donna gains awareness when she realizes as she's losing all her possessions that she has also lost who she was. In what seems like a lifetime of being busy and unaware, the writer shares her journey as she looks back at what she's been through and where she wants to go. She explores coming to terms with who she is and who she wants to be. From the depth of her soul, Donna feels a calling to inspire people, which makes her feel a little insane since she's come to this realization at the lowest point in her life. The writer knows that she can no longer live the way she has been living and sets out to start living life as the person Donna feels she's meant to be. We follow her journey as she moves back and forth by journaling, sharing her reality as a person losing everything still stuck in the bitterness of it all, and the person she feels she's deep inside by creating Goldilocks Blog, sharing all the positive things and ideas she needs to remind herself in order for her to live her "just right" life. Hoping that she helps others along the way, feeling she can't be the only one suffering. At the same time, Donna's being called to practice yoga by hearing a chant while walking alone on a path in the mountains. It's here where she begins to feel a sense of peace. A friend gives her a VHS video of a thirty-minute gentle yoga sequence, and a yoga mat. She begins practicing at home for her mental health and wellbeing. Demonstrating what it looks like to change the way we're living by coming into awareness with clarity, insight, and understanding as she steps deeper into the path of the life as a yogi, by becoming a yoga teacher and understanding her purpose. When you come into living your truth with the awareness, you see your life and the life around you from a different perspective. The author no longer needing anything outside herself, demonstrating how you can too live a life of peace.
