FREEDOM: How Teens Can Use Mindful Compassion to Thrive in a Chaotic World and Grow a Purpose-driven Life is designed to be a haven for you. A place where your thoughts and feelings are validated and accepted without judgment.
In order to thrive in this fast-paced, sometimes chaotic world, and grow a purpose-driven life, we need to be intentional and mindful in our thoughts, in our words, and in what we choose to do. Everyone struggles in this life, even if it doesn’t seem like it at times. And during these times of struggle, we can turn to self-compassion to help us through these difficult situations. So even amidst the chaos, you can have a calm inner-knowing that you have the knowledge, skills, and understanding to handle the bumps in the road.
A hands-on, practical resource, FREEDOM is a book that you can come back to again and again. In Part 1: The Untold Story, you’ll learn the background on why we think, feel, and act the way we do. Part 2: The Practices, is a collection of practices to help you navigate the difficult emotions and thoughts that may come up as you are living boldly according to your values and your purpose-driven life. The more you practice these skills the more they will start naturally showing up for you when you need them the most. These practices work over time and can be a comfort to you for your whole life.
