Living Joy
by Jeffrey David Ringold
What truly makes for a well-lived life? Are there ways to find deep, lasting peace, and also to be more practically effective in the world? When do spiritual and psychological techniques lead to genuine fulfillment, and when do they actually lead away from it? How do the “Law of Attraction” and various psychological approaches relate to spiritual fulfillment and liberation? Jeffrey David Ringold, founder of the Human Fulfillment Institute, offers a groundbreaking, visionary work that overturns self-help myths and spiritual dogma. Beginning with a life-transforming experience attending to a dying parent, Living Joy draws insights from cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and the world’s great wisdom traditions. But it’s Ringold’s own experience that really brings the book alive. Both profound and eminently practical, Living Joy guides the reader on a journey of self-discovery, and provides the tools necessary to create a truly well-lived life – a life of joy, love and liberating wisdom.
Praise for Living Joy:
“Living Joy is a powerful guide for anyone who wants their life to be an expression of the awakened heart and mind. Jeffrey Ringold clearly articulates perennial wisdom teachings, and makes them refreshingly applicable to our contemporary lives. Through engaging personal stories, inspirational poetry, and accessible meditations, the reader is offered the radical invitation to realize and inhabit the very essence of what we are.”
Tara Brach, author of Radical Acceptance
“When I first read Living Joy, I found it full of insights and stories that woke me up and gave me one “aha” after another. The second time I read it, the same thing happened. How do I live a more loving life — not just a bunch of bumper sticker wisdom, but how do I really, actually live it? This book is a good coach.”
Frank Andrews, PhD, author of The Art and Practice of Loving.
“I’m not usually a big fan of spiritual and personal growth literature, but this one’s in a completely different category. Ringold’s writing is exceptionally deep, lucid, even luminous. An excellent read.”
Joseph Esposito, The Portable CEO, Former President, Merriam Webster and CEO, Encyclopedia Britannica
Living Joy is filled with many practical examples of how imperfect, busy people can improve their relationships with themselves, their loved ones, and the imperfect world within which they live — not from within monastery walls, but in the real world, where the rubber hits the road.
