Working Beneath the Surface: Attending to the Soul's "hidden Agenda" for Wholeness, Fulfillment, and Deep Spiritual HealingRiskas applauds self-development -- adding skills and improving behaviors. However, he says there is more to becoming one's best, most authentic self. In this book, he explains how to find the hidden agenda of one's soul, "the inner work needed to live a vibrant, meaningful, and productive life." He suggests ways to face unpleasant truths and let go of 'shoulds.' That makes room for healing and renewal. |
