Synopsis

This book was written for busy and productive people who need healthy coping strategies.  To transform one's life into a path of enlightenment requires acceptance, not judgment. Learning how to accept oneself as a work in progress, to cultivate compassion in place of self-criticism, and to nurture and nourish oneself in place of self-neglect provides internal validation that will sustain you for the rest of your life.UnTherapy is formatted into short, 2-3 page subsections that can be read at night before retiring or any time a few minutes can be seized. Exercises are presented throughout the book to assist the reader to reflect on their personal life, to identify what is truly important to them, and to integrate their values and principles into their lifestyle. 

Unlike the "make it happen" books that dominate the self-improvement market today, UnTherapy proposes that peace of mind is the ground from which inspiration and productivity flourish.
