When we feel alone, cut off, or trapped, we can let those difficulties steer us onto a path toward an authentic, flourishing life—living in a way that allows us to find the wholeness that lies within. Even when we’re alone, a sense of community can accompany us through the stormy times. Our words, hearts, and actions can line up with a larger vision, rather than the smaller views our anxious, fearful thoughts arouse in us. To live in a less constricted way—Salzberg says we need to get real about what’s most important.

Heartfelt book with practical applications
Revisado: 07-28-23
I read Real Life soon after finishing her earlier book, Faith, which I also found excellent.
Sharon Salzberg has a knack for distilling big concepts into their salient components while preserving the true essence of the ideas she presents. To do this she uses metaphors and analogies which are often humorous and poignant. I am not a follower of any particular religion or faith practice, I found her appendix in meditation very helpful (especially in the audiobook- she guides you.) This book supports the reader in “coming as they are” and just being curious about what it means to live as a wholehearted human.

Challenging both the idea of the addict's "broken brain" and the notion of a simple "addictive personality", Unbroken Brain offers a radical and groundbreaking new perspective, arguing that addiction is a learning disorder, and shows how seeing the condition this way can untangle our current debates over treatment, prevention, and policy.

An excellent book!

Ms. Szalavitz does an amazing job laying out all aspects of addiction. Her achingly personal account of her own journey- including toward self-compassion- is incredibly inspiring.
I had just finished Born For Love which she collaborated with Bruce Perry on writing. They are hands-down two of the best books I’ve read this year!
