Enough! by Laurie Mccammon
I am enough. I have enough. We are enough. We have enough. Enough! are the words that came to McCammon as a "spontaneous download" and they form the backbone of this game-changing book. We are currently living in what Laurie McCammon calls The Never Enough Story, "the belief that we are on a perpetual hamster wheel in which we will never have enough time, money, ability, power or love to assuage our deep, perpetual longing. This Story will always generate patterns of violence, oppression, exploitation, control, mental illness and loneliness because the root of all these behaviours is etched indelibly into the storyline itself. . . . 'There isn't enough' and 'you aren't enough' are beliefs so ingrained in our psyche and culture that they hold sway over far-ranging aspects of life, from how we perceive our self-worth (I am not enough) to the ways in which we are taught, governed and allocated resources (You don't have enough. You aren't worthy.). We'd be hard-pressed to find an institution 'never enough' does not govern, a business it does not drive, a relationship it does not complicate." This book shows readers how to root out this never-enough story and develop a sense of enoughness that leads organically to solutions to problems from the personal to the local to the geopolitical.
“[McCammon] ably demonstrates how society has created a self-fulfilling prophecy but is able to turn itself around by taking care of the environment and eluding the multiple claims for more” —Deborah Bigelow, Library Journal
