STAYING IN THE HERE & NOW
This book is now a classic in the body of work that helps you get a new perspective on a radical understanding of how our minds may be getting us away from the present moment, and into a state of perpetual stress... and how to overcome this. Although not all the material in this work is for everyone, it does provide useful directions in diminishing excess stress and if practiced well, perhaps reducing it to a significantly low level.
One essential element of this book deals with the ''ego'' as running us into incessantly thinking and doubting ourselves in psychological perverse ways; projecting us into pasts and futures and away from presence in the Here and Nowè and how these are associated with the pain we carry around with us. This book can help guide you back into the present moment and help you alleviate much of the stress and possible pain that you may be carrying with you.
