What Would You Do If You Weren't Afraid?

Discover the secrets to a fearless, meaningful life, found in the wisdom of Jewish scripture. Today, more than ever, we act out of fear. We fear change, rejection, failure and suffering. But what if we could find a way to live that challenges conventional Western psychology and looks to the future instead of picking over the past? What if we could replace our fear with purpose, and discover our potential for growth instead of focusing on our limits? What Would You Do If You Weren't Afraid? draws on a wide range of chassidus (Jewish principles) to offer a new philosophy for life. With its uplifting belief that you already have all the ingredients within and around you to lead a joyous life, this book will help you to reconnect with your courage and move forward freely, without fear. This ebook offers practical solutions for relationships, parenting, work, dealing with past traumas and controlling anxiety. But it also reveals how to take the most important journey of your life: the one into your own soul.
