OUR FIRST BOOK OUR FIRST BOOK
Real Life. The Journey from Isolation to Openness and Freedom
by Sharon Salzberg
No one is immune to the different seasons of life. Yet we are often ill-prepared to navigate these natural ups and downs without undue pain and suffering. In her twelfth book, Real Life, NY Times bestselling author Sharon Salzberg contemplates the skills needed to traverse the larger cycles of life, drawing from forty-plus years of experience in the Buddhist tradition. Applying contemplative tools, we can learn to live more fearlessly―moving from constriction and isolation to a more spacious place of possibility, creativity, connection, and joy.
In Real Life, Sharon sets a path out for us, merging the insights of inspiring voices with her own teachings to:
Uncover a deeper sense of ourselves
Expand our vision of what’s possible for ourselves
Align our words, hearts, and actions with our core values
Navigate loss without getting stuck in bitterness or disconnect
Carry a sense of community with us, even in stormy times
Recover from the emotional effects of crisis
Learn the art of letting go and beginning again
Build emotional intelligence to face times of difficulty without fear
Seek out joy in everyday life, even when things don’t go our way
Befriend ourselves on the journey of being human
Embark on the journey to embody a life of curiosity, authenticity, and freedom.
