Everyday Commitments - by David Richo (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In this unique book, psychotherapist David Richo offers fifty-two promises we can make to ourselves that will help us navigate the ups and downs of daily living in a wise, compassionate, and psychologically healthy way. Taken together these commitments, along with the author's brief reflections on them, offer guidance on how to:

- develop genuine kindness toward yourself and others
- find freedom from fear
- maintain healthy boundaries in relationships
- develop greater honesty and awareness
Designed for daily or weekly inspiration and contemplation, Everyday Commitments also features practical exercises--including journaling, contemplation, and guided meditations--to foster inward growth and lasting positive change.

Review Quotes

"Richo's intellectual grasp is profound, making each commitment an intriguing spiritual yardstick for examining how far we have come or how far we might still go in terms of honesty, kindness, and taking responsibility for our actions and relationships."--Publishers Weekly
