Living From Your Core
Inside all of us there is a part that feels most ourselves, that is unique and precious to us. This part of us can be described as 'spirit' or 'soul', or the core of who we are. When we are in touch with our core we can live a life of lasting satisfaction.
Living Authentically combines insights from modern western psychotherapy with the ancient wisdom of Taoism. In their book, Evan and Carmen guide you through the process of discovering who you are at your core. They show you how your life flows, where and when you get off track, and how to get back on track again.
You can use the Living Authentically book as a 'toolkit' or collection of resources to experience living authentically. Exploration exercises throughout the text offer you the chance to clarify your deepest needs and longings. With this awareness you will have the foundation for living a life of satisfaction and joy.
