In this tapestry of personal anecdotes interwoven with the wisdom of her humble and respected philosophical mentor, William Samuel, Sandy Jones shows us her own personal journey of discovering the child within.
Through stories of her childhood in California, to her life falling in love and raising a family in Aspen and back to California again, we are taken on an intimate tour of the joys and heartaches of living and the power of trusting in what is innate and true in each of us. We discover the wisdom of the child-like spirit seen through the eyes and experience of one who embodies that very spirit.
With Sandy as our guide and William's words strung throughout, we remember what it feels like to be free and unafraid, like children running through sprinklers barefoot and laughing and falling down and laughing again.
Barefoot at Heart is at once an autobiographical narrative, a conversation with life, a glimpse of a philosophy lived, and a love letter to the great mystery that holds us all.
Sandy takes us on a secret path she has forged, past the huckleberries, through the brambles and into the wide open field of our own sweet hearts, and whispers that we can go there any time we like. And we pause, and look around and feel a new freedom and say, like Celeste from Sandy's own childhood record, "That's the place for me."

Sandy Jones is Bill's Samuel’s living word, masterpiece and opus, all rolled into one! Her uniquely poetic, surprisingly sensuous, and yet profoundly, down-to-earth take (the same slant Bill Samuel had) on “Awakening, Enlightenment, Liberation, Illumination, Self-Realization and/or Salvation” has a clear potential to both "open the eyes of the blind" and "set the mental captives free"; and to do so in such a sweet, gentle, lovingly ecstatic way.Sandy once volunteered, during a personal conversation, that she didn't want to “bake or serve the divine cake,” that Bill Samuel had done that, but rather she wanted to “be the cake” that people could part-take of simply by sharing her rather amazing life and single-eyed perspective, as she has so skillful done in “Barefoot at Heart.”
Sweet Sandy, as Bill was fond of calling her, is the “real deal” folks and repeatedly “delivers the goods” in “Barefoot at Heart,” not only to seekers new and old, but to those who are just “sick and tired of being sick and tired” of this increasingly crazy world we seem to be living in.
Highly recommend for seekers and non seekers alike.

Barefoot at Heart The Alchemy of Love and the Power of Light edition by Sandy Jones Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
Sandy Jones has written a wonderful account of her life as a sincere spiritual seeker, finder, and rebel. This is not another cookbook of self-help and spiritual techniques. It is also not a chaste discourse on the importance of monastic living. This is the book that all of us who have been privileged to know Sandy have been waiting to see for years. Having read many of the books by her mentor William Samuel, I believe it it is reasonable to say that this book represents an extension of his ideas and methods of teaching. There is a tremendous amount of value written between the lines. The only book I've seen that is even vaguely comparable is "At Home with the Inner Self" by Jim Burns. Both are autobiographical, completely devoid of new age fluff, and written by someone who dedicated their life to putting people beyond the need for any external help or authority.
Sandy is a special friend in this life. She gifted me with the final draft before it was sent to the publisher. Wisdom and love are the hallmarks of this extraordinary book. Find a quiet place where you can be alone and read this book aloud and you will hear the Child of yourself. This is not an ordinary book and can not be read as such. Take your time and really listen. As Sandy's friend and spiritual teacher (William Samuel) would say "nothing has been read once until it has been read twelve times." As you re-read this book you will find diamonds and be shocked you didn't discover them on the first reading. What courage to write this story! What love to lay your heart bare before the world! How fortunate to have this Light in our life. There is poetry here and a song of love. A spiritual search opening in a meadow. Here is an honest voice attached to a heart that holds the world. Thank you Sandy for sharing this treasure and for keeping Bill's light shining in the world.
Sandy Jones has written a love story. She calls it that and indeed it is. And it is a uniquely Sandy story. She is in love with God. If you have seen her paintings or her shop, you get the same imprint as the book full, joyous, colorful, composed of bits of this and bits of that—packed deftly into a whole. There is no center because everything is the center. Recently a friend and I cut out 100 green four-leaf clovers from some stiff construction paper. Strangely enough, though we both cut well, you could tell which clovers were hers and which were mine. They had our imprints. Sandy’s chapters are all imprints of Sandy love happy, skipping, laughing, appreciating, noticing, and overcome with joy a sweet string of joy after joy after joy. The book holds together, however, because you never know when a bolt of lightning, a swath of Kandinsky-like red, a howl of a beast, a torrent of life will strike through and claim a chapter unto itself. The way she goes back again and again for a while to Aspen made me feel as if I were travelling there although I have never been. It makes me want a cookie in a coffee shop. But it all hearkens back to California, the coast, the sea, and the seeing. The picture is painted. Her respect and love for William Samuel is the thread through all the multicolored Sandy fabrics. This is a book to make you happy, to make you believe, to wait for it, to welcome it.
I’ve known Sandy Jones for a few years and there are no words to express how her friendship and her talks with me have helped me in discovering the Child that Spiritual teachers speak about.
I remember when Sandy shared with me that she was going to write a book. I thought it would be good but when I finally got to read it I was blown away by her talent to share with words the FEELINGS of The Child.
Sandy has written a book that speaks to the HEART! While reading this book there were times that such a wonderful feeling of Joy and energy would wash over me and my MIND would not even know WHY! All I can guess is that the energy of that wonderful state that Sandy lives in somehow comes through and the Heart understands what the mind just can’t. In short I would say this book shares more than just words of “how to”. This book actually gives you the EXPERIENCE of what the “how to” books only point to.
