Always Arising: Seeking Solace in an Isolated World PAPERBACK 2021 BY Meg Grasmick

Description

Full of wisdom and wit, this personal growth book is a guide to living out your greatest fulfillment. Always Arising questions our culture’s emphasis on the pursuit of happiness and wonders what it would be like to pursue wholeness instead. This toolbox for framing your narrative shows you how to build a worthwhile life, navigate suffering, and tap into equilibrium.

Drawing inspiration from Sam Harris, Meg tackles the implicit belief that one day we will “arrive” at a destination where perfect and permanent happiness is guaranteed. She turns the burden of this belief into balm for the soul by showing you how to view the spectrum of human emotion through a sober lens.

Arriving is an empty promise, but the choice to rise above fixating on an ideal future preserves the integrity of the present moment. Always Arising will take you on a journey of becoming and overcoming and help you discover the beauty of arising.
