Life can be hard. We all experience challenges, misfortune, heartache, and failures. And sometimes everything piles up until we're overwhelmed and find it hard to move forward. When we're stuck, mired in uncomfortable circumstances, feeling powerless, the story we make up about our life and who we are can easily make things worse. We know what we're doing isn't working, but have no idea how to find our way to a more productive path.
In his book Is Your Story Making You Sick? Dr. Mark Pirtle will help you find that path by giving you the tools to enact positive change, growth, and happiness through mindful attunement, a process that helps you make sense ofand rewriteyour life story. Mindful attunement synthesizes the disciplines of neuroscience, living systems theory, mindfulness meditation, positive psychology, and narrative medicine into a single framework for facing life challenges with the strength of a warrior and the creativity of an artist. Your attunement not only benefits you, but your relations and the planet as well.
Through a combination of step-by-step instruction, big-picture context, personal anecdote, and cutting-edge information from some of the brightest minds working in the fields of psychology, development, and systems theory, Is Your Story Making You Sick? offers a safe, stable, supportive bridge from where you are now and where you want to be.
