The Tree of Life Mastery: Volume I: The Wisdom of the Tree begins with David D. McLeod’s own call to Life Mastery. From early childhood messages that taught him to look outside himself for identity, to grief, anger, depression, near self-destruction, and a life-changing spiritual awakening, David shows how losing the self can become the beginning of remembering it.

At the heart of the book is one clear message: nothing is more important than knowing, expressing, and experiencing the truth of who you really are. To support that journey, David presents 13 Divine Skills that form the Tree of Life Mastery. These skills guide readers through awareness, acceptance, identity, conscious choice, compassion, forgiveness, purpose, integrity, shadow work, relationship, flow, gratitude, and transcendence.

The book combines personal story, spiritual insight, practical exercises, journaling prompts, coaching wisdom, and reflective guidance. It is written for those who feel the old scripts no longer fit and are ready to reclaim their true nature with courage, honesty, and love.
