Book review

Whether you are struggling with finances, job loss, relationship problems, a health crisis, or all of the above, this book will light your path and heal your heart.

by Daphne Rose Kingma

Add layoffs, foreclosures and skyrocketing health care costs to the inevitable crises of everyday life, and you have today’s landscape.

Amid these challenges, even those who thought they had solid coping skills feel that their center cannot hold as things fall apart.

In her first book in many years, Kingma takes us on a path of emotional and spiritual healing, with particular attention to the complex and frequently overwhelming circumstances of our lives right now.

The perfect combination of empathic friend, sage counselor, savvy problem-solver and even gallows humorist, Kingma looks straight into the predicaments so many of us face. She then offers 10 deceptively simple, yet profoundly effective strategies for coping on practical, emotional and spiritual levels.

You cannot change the events, but after reading this book, you will have recovered a sense of equanimity, spirit and strength. Whether you are struggling with finances, job loss, relationship problems, a health crisis, or all of the above, this book will light your path and heal your heart.
