Building Your New Life Sondra Longbrake

You are standing at the edge of a canyon. One step forward and you fall into the abyss. On the other side of the canyon is the beautiful new life you wish for but never achieve. What if your new life is closer than you think? What if you could get from here to there just by changing the way you think? I know. You've tried positive affirmations, and they don't help. Why not? Because talking to the head doesn't change what you believe in your heart. It doesn't change the unconscious beliefs that drive your life. This book goes beyond conscious thoughts and into the roots of your belief system, the source of your pain, and the unseen forces that are keeping you stuck. Often, mental health providers will tell you that you have a "disorder" that cannot be cured and must be medicated, and counseling is centered around learning to cope with your "illness", not curing it. The religious approach often resorts to blaming and shaming the sufferer into silence and hiding their problems. Whether you're experiencing a vague sense of dissatisfaction with your life or serious bouts of anxiety and depression that seem to cripple you, this book can teach you how to experience joy and put you back in the driver's seat of your life.
