Gathering in Pieces. A Book for Those Who Are Confused, Tired, and Burned Out

Martha Beck is one of the most famous coaches in the USA and a bestselling author of New York Times. She obtained a PhD in sociology from Harvard. For 17 years, she wrote a column for O, The Oprah Magazine.... Her writing talent is highly regarded by Oprah Winfrey, Elizabeth Gilbert, and Julia Cameron. Martha Beck's books are included in the list of the 50 great books on psychology. Why do you suffer, why do you deal with unpleasant people, maintain traumatic relationships, and in moments of despair, cling to negative habits? It’s simple—you have lost yourself. It’s not you, but a model citizen that your parents, spouses, employers, and friends want to see. Martha Beck will help you become more whole, start living your life, and stop betraying yourself. The exercises she offers are only simple at first glance. To carry them out, you will have to embark on a real spiritual adventure. It will not be easy, sometimes frightening, and sometimes painful. But in the end, you will learn to read inner signals, deceive less—including yourself, see what you truly desire, and what culture sells to you. Who is the book for? For those who have lost themselves, are confused, and don’t know how to live. For those seeking new tools for self-development, personal, and spiritual growth. For those who are tired of justifying others' expectations and want to live a more interesting and authentic life. For those who truly appreciate deep authors.
