Winnowing

Winnowing is a literary spiritual memoir about a lifelong search that unfolds quietly beneath the surface of a successful secular life.


Through a constellation of vivid, personal stories, Kira Higgs traces how ordinary moments—childhood impressions, adult ruptures, uncanny encounters, and the sometimes inconvenient revelations of meditation practice—gradually opened a deeper way of seeing.


Written with gentle humor and hard-won wisdom, Winnowing invites readers to consider that what feels like loss may in fact be the key in the door to transformation.


Available on Amazon March 2026
