Chapters

One of my favorite books is Inward by Jung Pueblo. It's like a therapeutic poetry book that is just filled with these powerful gems. Like each page is short, pithy, to the point, but also filled with depth and wisdom. For example, one of the poems says, when things get hard, remember that you are not building something small. You are building a palace of peace within your hearts. It takes determination and effort to create something of such beauty and magnitude. So I have a lot of clients as part of their integration process of reclaiming self-generosity and gentleness. And self-empathy and oftentimes working towards self-love. They're not all the way there yet. It takes some time. Progress over perfection is my obsession as I help them see, like, if you can be obsessed with progress, you can go to radically different places in a short time period. But this book gives you a deep guidance around like seeing yourself, seeing others differently, and being gentle with yourself and practicing self-generosity and self-love.
