Undimmed : The Eight Awarenesses for Freedom from Unwanted Habits. by Mak, Cecily.;
Many of us are taught to believe that escapist and addictive behaviours are fine as long as they are not problems or wholesale addictions. But this mindset robs us of a more present life and our ability to make changes before the behaviour becomes an unshakeable habit. What you use to dim your life may not be a substance - it might even be something healthy, like exercise or food, mindless scrolling, binge-watching, or overworking. In 'Undimmed', Cecily Mak developed a set of principles we can use for inspiration and guidance on the path to embodying a clear life. Each one serves as an invitation to explore a deeper understanding of ourselves and our choices, and the empowerment that comes with choosing to live a life undimmed.Library Bound Incorporated
