Liberation from the Lie by Eric Gross
Despite the plethora of research and writing in the field of mental and emotional health, despite our vast wealth and consumption, despite the availability of so much technology and convenience, people are more unhappy than ever. Liberation from the Lie: Cutting the Roots of Fear Once and for All offers a radically different approach to living that reveals the source of our unhappiness and insecurity. Our families, our institutions, and our culture at large are agents of invalidation, repeatedly delivering the message that we are not good enough to be loved for our original selves. We come to believe that we are inadequate, insufficient, worthless--that in order to be happy, we must change. Liberation helps readers break free of the endless transformation trap. By seeing through the shame that drives self-improvement, we can end the interminable process of seeking and discover our innate resilience, strength, and passion.
