Summary of Rachel Naomi Remen's Kitchen Table Wisdom

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The life force is the strength and power of life, and it can be found in everyone. It can be trusted, and it is what helps us heal. #2 The old woman took me to see the scrolls in the back of the store, one of which was the plum blossom. She explained that the plum suffered because it was the first to bloom, in February, during the hard and cold winter. But she added that the plum blossom was gentle and soft, and survived. #3 Life is not fragile. There is a difference between impermanence and fragility. Even on the physiological level, the body is an intricate design of checks and balances, elegant strategies of survival layered on strategies of survival. #4 The will to live may be a part of our basic encoding at the center of our personal lives. It may be affected by our deepest and most unconscious beliefs about our own essential nature, our worthiness to live, and our commitment toward the particular and the concrete.
