“If your primary focus is to get over your health problems or get past a relationship crisis so that you can return to your former life and old patterns- that is, get back to business as usual-you are not really living. The distinction is paradoxical and sometimes subtle. It's the difference between walking through your life on your way to somewhere, and walking as your life. Even if you believe that where you want to get is extremely important, that destination is secondary. Your immediate experience is what really matters. It is your life.” IfsWayWantLifeBelieveImportantSometimesMatterProblemPastDifferencesFocusReturnWalkingCrisisPatternsFormerPrimariesDistinctionSubtleOver YouDestinationGet BackUsualGet OverIf You BelieveParadoxicalHealth ProblemsReally LivingFormer Life Author:Richard Moss

If so, burn it.” IfsMayDoeBookPastSufferingReadingParentAnswersGenerationsBabyOffersInstinctOver YouPanicParentalInadequacyPast Generations Author:Libby Copeland
