Zen and the Art of Falling in Love

As a great teacher once said, 'We never ask the meaning of life when we're in love'. But the real question is, 'why aren't we in love all the time?', ZEN AND THE ART OF FALLING IN LOVE answers that question. By combining the psychological understanding of relationships with the principles of Zen practice, this book offers a completely different way of looking at love and relationships. Each chapter is structured around a different Zen practice, giving us thirteen steps we can easily take to learn how to reclaim love and our true selves. Readers will learn new means of dealing with the usual trouble spots in relationships, such as miscommunication, lies, betrayal, jealousy, insecurity, loss and disappointment. As readers look at these issues through the eyes of Zen practice, they will receive life-changing perspectives, instructions and outcomes.
