The Book of Waking Up: Experiencing the Divine Love That Reorders a Life by Seth Haines

5.0

Listened on audio- would recommend reading in book or ebook form- full of so many great truths that I want to revisit. This book shows us that our coping mechanisms are lesser loves that do not bring peace, freedom, and the wholeness we crave. We are to wake up to our coping mechanisms, see what is behind the pain in our lives, and walk into the Divine love of God. A lot of us are asleep and using the coping mechanisms to walk through life this way. How do we live a life awake and fully embrace the love of God?

"Addiction is misplaced adoration"

Loved Seth's honesty and vulnerability about his own coping mechanisms and addictions but that he also includes ones that are common in the world today that are accepted as culturally acceptable (social media scrolling, shopping, pornography, etc)
