Publisher's Synopsis
"PATHWAYS TO ENLIGHTENED LIVING: Exploration of Your Inner Self" has evolved for the authors of this book over a 45-year marriage and as many years working together professionally in the field of positive psychology. The issues addressed in this volume are life experiences encountered through their ongoing personal and professional discovery process; and, it is a process that will enable the reader to explore their own inner space and to experience the quality of life that confirms their deepest level of existence. Each chapter concludes with Points to Ponder, which will help the reader internalize the life-changing content under discussion. Key topics covered in this book are: (1) past mistakes (moving from past tense to present tense); (2) approval addiction (be what you want to be; not what others want to see); (3) changes during the life cycle (stepping towards your destiny); (4) shattered dreams (unexpected path to dream fulfillment); (5) resistance to "what is;" (6) false self-beliefs (do you believe your own beliefs?); (7) thought reconstruction (thinking errors); (8) synchronicity (whispers from beyond); (9) heart versus head; (10) imagination (preview of life's coming attractions); (11) quantum physics (living outside the box); (12) fear (embracing the lions' roar); (13) anger (adjusting the flame); (14) worry (be still and know); (15) bitterness (cleansing a toxin of the soul); (16) resentment (redirecting the persistence of ill-will); (17) envy (affirmation of personal uniqueness); (18) forgiveness (warming the heart while cooling the sting).
