Announcing the Revised Edition of my first book, Above the Battleground: The Courageous Path to Emotional Autonomy and Inner Peace.
From the back-cover copy:
“Icarus flew too close to the sun, but what else could he do? Young and inexperienced, he found it difficult to stay a middle course. Intoxicated with his newfound power, he soared upwards, meeting an untimely end. But things might have gone the other way. Icarus could have feared his burgeoning capacity for flight, hesitating to use his wings. Descending too close to the ocean, the outcome would be equally disastrous.
Icarus’ challenge represents our own. Emotionally, we experience similar conflicting pulls. Sometimes we lack confidence, feel weighed down, overwhelmed, and fear what lies ahead. At other times, we feel the pull of the sun; we impulsively fly into action, driven to achieve something great. The former leads to bypassing our potential; the latter, to messing it up.
Above the Battleground shows how shame and guilt relate to these extremes. Linked to feelings of unworthiness, we experience shame and guilt when we are caught in our past, our wounds. Combining insights from psychology and spiritual principles from A Course in Miracles, Above the Battleground shows how we can heal, enjoying the happiness and constancy of our true Self, transcending the poles.”
