Book Hero thinking about your next read

A cure to 'malaise' one that is free, powerful and accessible to all, love yourself.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

From the bestselling author of Living With IT comes a breakthrough work that is the culmination of years of searching for the 'bottom line' of the malaise which affects not only those who suffer with anxiety and depression but also human beings in general in ever-increasing numbers.

This feeling manifests as anything from dissatisfaction to rage, bullying to brutality, self-pity to cynicism. It contaminates happiness, sabotages potential, and saps joy. The malaise is not discriminating: it equally infects world leaders and ordinary citizens. What is this sickness? It is a lack of joy.

It means existing instead of living, finding oneself empty and afraid, angry, blaming, or bored senseless. It is marrying the wrong spouse, staying in the job you hate, eating the wrong foods, becoming addicted, being lonely, falling ill, feeling lost.

But take heart, there is a cure, which is free, powerful, and accessible to all — Love Yourself.
