it was amazing

Most of my adult life has been spent in the charismatic Christian world, where we would like to think we are comfortable with emotions, outward displays of fervency and passion, etc. And yet... somewhere along the line, I still didn't actually know what my emotions were, or what they meant, or how they affected me. Marc's book breaks down the very nature of emotions, their purpose and structure, and how they move us to action. He explains that all emotions have truth to tell us, but that it's often not the truth we are expecting to hear. I laughed and cried throughout the book, as I discovered a message of peace, hope and love. My emotions are not sinful, they are not defective, they are not a liability; they are God's great gift to me, and I can choose the actions that I take, I do not live at the whim of my emotions (but I can learn from what they have to say to me).

If you enjoyed Keep Your Love On, by Danny Silk, but want to go deeper, then this is for you. If you're interested in cognitive development, but don't feel like reading Dan Siegel, then this is for you. If you have ever struggled to understand your emotions in any way, shape or form, then this is for you.
