Any amazing book that's helps you actually find what is healthy for yourself and moving toward a health. It de-mystifies the process and makes it easy for you to begin to heal your past and look more hopefully to the future. It can be a little depressing in the beginning with him highlighting everything preventing us from being healthy. However, he does provide some practical tips and tries to infuse some hope throughout the book. The best self help book out there right now.

this book was DENSE but it was fascinating. I wiiiiish there were more concrete solutions, but I guess that’s me just wishing for a simple solution to society’s inhospitality. this should be required reading for anyone going into any medical/people-caring role
