Going to Pieces Without Falling Apart by Mark Epstein, M.D. Pdf

An intimate guide to self-acceptance and discovery that offers a Buddhist perspective on wholeness within the framework of a Western understanding of self. For decades, Western psychology has promised fulfillment through building and strengthening the ego. We are taught that the ideal is a strong, individuated self, constructed and reinforced over a lifetime. But Buddhist psychiatrist Mark Epstein has found a different way. Going to Pieces Without Falling Apart shows us that happiness doesn't come from any kind of acquisitiveness, be it material or psychological. Happiness comes from letting go. Weaving together the accumulated wisdom of his two worlds--Buddhism and Western psychotherapy—Epstein shows how "the happiness that we seek depends on our ability to balance the ego's need to do with our inherent capacity to be." He encourages us to relax the ever-vigilant mind in order to experience the freedom that comes only from relinquishing control. Drawing on events in his own life and stories from his patients, Going to Pieces Without Falling Apart teaches us that only by letting go can we start on the path to a more peaceful and spiritually satisfying life.

Heartlight by K. Michael Curcuru Pdf

Foreword Heartlight This book will change your relationship with reality. K. Michael Curcuru bestows enlightenment in a book. What you hold in your hands doesnt just have words about light. It conveys light. This book is a touchstone. Get into it. Let it wash over you. Read aloud the exquisite passages, and relish the sparkling energy that enfolds you. This is a new literary genre: stream-of-light-consciousness writing. When I began reading Heartlight, my recovering English teacher started sputtering, Oh dear, thats what hes using as a verb? Then the beauty and flow of the book moved me into a different way of being with it. Michael really does see the world as hes written it here. He embodies radiant light. And this book imparts transformation just as Michael doesenergetically speaking because Michael is that light. He has discovered a way of gifting an enlightened level of being to you by experiencing his book. Heartlight is an energetic field. Like a magnetic field realigns poles of iron filings, you will find yourself feeling lighter, expanded, and more open-hearted and self-loving when you spend time in this book. You will absorb this book at a subatomic level. Avoid seeking the sentence structure Newtonian method. Let your right brain fall in love with this book. Use the creative, fluid, random part of you that senses wholeness rather than constructs it. As you drop into this book, you may find yourself swept away, poised on the crest of a word wave. Awash in alluring alliteration, you ask, From whence did I come? You can find your way home, Dorothy, by remembering. Heartlight is about how to be the light in the Illusion; it is how to find the light, trust the light, and be cradled by the light. As Michael would say, In-Joy!

How to Fall Apart by Liadan Hynes Pdf

'Honest, vulnerable and empowering' Angela Scanlon 'Poignant, profound, and moving, I have no doubt that this beautifully written book will comfort anyone who is in the process of falling apart' Louise O'Neill 'Liadán Hynes writes with so much heart. Her story will help shine a light during uncertain, painful times. After reading, you'll be ready to heal' Cecelia Ahern When journalist and podcaster Liadán Hynes's marriage ended, it felt like a loss: of her best-friend, and of the happy ending she had envisaged on their wedding day. In the months that followed, she had to adjust to a different future - as a single mum juggling work and managing a home -- without someone to share the ups and downs of the everyday. Here, in this honest, poignant and beautifully written memoir, she gives an account of her experience. From navigating Friday-night dinner parties and Saturday nights alone on the couch, to counselling and having more gurus than is sensible, How to Fall Apart is a story of one woman who discovered the value of different kinds of love and, in doing so, found herself: single, stronger and surrounded by love.
