Curative Consciousness for Heartbreak, Obsession, and Process Addiction

This book was written for the person who suffers unwanted memories and/or irrational fears that place them in a perpetual state of misery or anxiety. This unhappy state is at the core of human pathology in that it motivates destructive behavior and sense-seeking as a means of distraction or temporary escape. Life seems a storm at times, but need that tempest also reside inside us? What is the cause of enduring unhappiness? Is it merely genetics and the combination of events that come together to make us this way? Is there something beyond life-circumstances that can bring us peace? So much unhappiness is pointless, brought on by giving weight to things that are unworthy of it. The scope of such things must be drastically narrowed. It is through conditioning that we fall into this misappropriation of attention, and so the undoing of this conditioning can help us establish a more realistic reaction to life. There is a hidden blessing in desperate unhappiness in that it can motivate the search for liberation.
