A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

THE WAY OF FORGIVENESS: Letting Go, Easing Stress, and Building Strength first appeared in 1994 as “A Little Book of Forgiveness” (Viking) and has since changed the lives of many thousands of readers. The fifth edition from the author's own press features revised material throughout, including expanded instructions for the classic “Seven Steps of Forgiveness” devised by author D. Patrick Miller, based on more than two decades of studying and practicing the principles of forgiveness in his own life. “Shouting and condemning others can seem like a righteous demonstration of strength,” says Miller. “But rants and outbursts seldom solve any problems, and often create new ones. I think many people mistake forgiveness as a way to avoid conflict or let people off the hook. The kind of forgiveness I am talking about is a daily discipline of learning to see things differently, which enables you to respond to challenges with clarity, compassion, and ingenuity. If you really want to change things and have a lasting effect on people, forgiveness is a better strategy than anything else.” INCLUDED IN THIS EDITION: * Foreword by Frederic Luskin, Ph.D., founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Projects * 20th Year Introduction by D. Patrick Miller * The Seven Steps of Forgiveness * Forgiving Others * Forgiving Yourself * Where Forgiveness Leads * The Seven Steps Expanded (with workshop-style instructions) “When first published in 1994, this was a book whose ideas and message were ahead of its time... Since 1996 I have directed the Stanford Forgiveness Projects, a series of research endeavors that helped substantiate the power of forgiveness to reduce hurt, depression, anger and stress in people who hold grudges... In addition to this research I also have taught forgiveness to tens of thousands of hurt and angry people. What I find fascinating is that the things I taught, researched and proved to be true, D. Patrick Miller already knew. . .” -- from the Foreword by FREDERIC LUSKIN, Ph.D., Director of Stanford Forgiveness Projects “With The Way of Forgiveness, D. Patrick Miller makes the advanced form of forgiveness found in A Course in Miracles very approachable, without compromising on its profound and startling message. Having known Patrick for many years, I can say he doesn’t just write about these principles, he truly lives them. I highly recommend this book to all spiritual seekers. You won’t be able to put it down.” -- GARY RENARD, author of The Disappearance of the Universe and Love Has Forgotten No One “What beautiful work. . . clearheaded, generous, and profound in its lush simplicity. A wise and wonderful book now celebrating its 20th birthday, and just as relevant today." -- WALLY LAMB, novelist, author of She’s Come Undone and We Are Water “This helped me go to a deeper level on my own path of forgiveness. It’s a wonderful book!” --LOUISE HAY, author of You Can Heal Your Life
