Wisdom From The Couch: Knowing and Growing Yourself from the Inside Out
by Jennifer L. Kunst, Ph.D. —
This book is a useful guide to understanding the mysteries of the mind and how we can change for the better.
Kunst raises some key questions that are on the minds of all those seeking a more satisfying, meaningful life:
How can it be that perfectly intelligent people do such obviously counterproductive things so much of the time?
Why do we do the things we know we should not do, and why do we fail to do the things we know we should do?
The simple answer to these questions is that the unconscious mind greatly influences all that we do.
If we come to understand ourselves at a deeper unconscious level, we have a chance to make changes in our lives that have the potential to last.
Written by an experienced psychoanalyst with a knack for describing complex ideas in a lively and easy-to-comprehend way, the book will change the way you think about your internal and external lives.
