Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Death Wish dives into addiction, death and suicide. Steve Chandler tells stories he has never told and tells the truth he's hidden inside himself. Chandler shares his own experience, strength and hope with those who are still confused and depressed by these forces. It gives inner freedom to the parents of children caught up in the tsunami of addictive pleasure and pain. ...and all people who are scaring themselves to death and using addiction (the death wish) to escape their unbearable thinking. This really is about a true death wish. And. . . how to have that wish disappear. "Steve Chandler's brilliant book accurately describes the process of liberation from the only addiction that truly exists, the addiction to the mis-belief that we are all anything less than inherently loving beings regardless of what we say, think, or do." Dr. H. Ronald Hulnick, President, University of Santa Monica and co-author with Dr. Mary R. Hulnick, of Loyalty To Your Soul: The Heart of Spiritual Psychology *** "Human, funny, encouraging, and incredibly life-affirming, Death Wish is the best book about the path through addiction to a life worth living I have ever read." Michael Neill, bestselling author of The Inside-Out Revolution and The Space Within *** "Steve Chandler's book Death Wish is wonderful; a dose of down-to-earth, no-holds barred spirituality, chock full of wisdom, humour and irreverence, done in the way only Steve can do it. If you've ever struggled with addiction, know someone who does, or work with people who do, you're in for a treat." Jamie Smart, author of The Little Book of Clarity
