Summary

An infallible guide to eliminating stress by the author of On Having No Head.

When we come up against stressful situations in our everyday life, our automatic reaction is to turn away and escape. If, on the other hand, we can accept stress, allow it to become part of us, the conflict disappears. The secret lies in seeing that either we are the no-thing that overcomes stress by excluding it or the every-thing that overcomes stress by including it. This method of coping with stress applies to its many manifestations in our lives. It can turn boredom into joy and despondency into deep contentment.

Learning to head off stress takes no time at all and is impossible to forget. All it requires is that we dare to take a fresh look at ourselves. Revolutionary in its ease and directness, its simplicity and penetration, this approach is guaranteed to turn our preconceptions upside down.

enlightening

getting into the headless way I want to dig deeper. this book helped me get to grips more with what Harding is communicating because we all get stressed so it's a real world thing that allows Douglas Harding to explain to me why I was stressed. here we have no mumbo jumbo and neither do we have a promise at the end of the spiritual supermarket isle. this is a real, almost instant, path to your true YOU!
