Review"e;Katie Malachuk writes with great style and humor. She is accessible and personal, yet she is also a scholar and practitioner with a thorough background in her subject. Quite a rarity.Disrupt Yourselfdisplays all of these qualities in abundance. It is exactly what is needed to stand strong in the current tidal wave of misinformation about mindfulness practice based in Buddhism."e;-Sarah Harding,Niguma, Lady of IllusionandMachik's Complete Explanation:Clarifying the Meaning of ChdProduct DescriptionWe have had enough. We are depleted from overconsumption-technological, material, environmental, social, physical, sexual. We feel defeated by climate change, political antagonism, social injustice, the pressure to be perfect and the anxiety of being alive. We try spiritual this and that, but shopping for practices and performative spirituality drain us further. We are tired of the way we think, talk and live. We have had enough. We have had enough of ourselves.EnterDisrupt Yourself-a book that is both a salve and a dare for our time. Using Buddhist teachings and lay precepts, it cuts through our confusion via the oft-forgotten foundational practice of ethics. Disrupt Yourself presents an everyday path that puts us in right relationship with ourselves, each other and our world through relevant renunciation around intoxicants, consumption, identity, communication and intimacy. Through narrative, instruction and experiments, readers will uncover their inherent wisdom and its active expression of compassion. This transforms how we think, speak, listen, act, work, create, partner, parent, eat, shop, vote, govern, perform, protest, play, love, make love-all of it. We disrupt ourselves and this disrupts our world. And the big reveal is how joyful and freeing this feels.About the Author:Katie MalachukHarvard BA, Stanford MBA, Naropa MDivis a Buddhist chaplain, mind and life coach, yoga and meditation teacher, and college instructor.

This book is meant to enlighten those who have been struggling with rising up from existential crisis and finding the purpose of their life. The authors of the book have put in a lot of hard work and many years of research in writing this book. This book wisely answers all the questions regarding our existence; it provides an insight into the nature of the complex mechanisms of human beings and the origin of everything. It explains how the bounties of nature and their incredibly intelligent designs speak for the existence of God without uttering words. The supernatural power, in other words, God the viewed differently by individuals of different backgrounds depending on their social conditioning. The writer further explains to the truth-seekers as to how find and connect with the higher power by means of different practices such as meditation, channeling, yoga, prayers, and it sheds light on the incredible power of positive thinking. It also addresses the detrimental effects of low self-esteem and negativity in realizing our full potential. The book is not an endeavor of one mind. It is a by-product of the amalgamation of different minds and different life experiences. One of the authors of the book has gone through many mystical experiences that ended up making her a spiritual healer from being a therapist. The book mentions many various ancient treatments such as reiki, chakras, massage etc to live peacefully and mindfully. The writers of this insightful book have avoided using highfalutin vocabulary for its readers to be understandable by layman. I hope this book will find a way to your hearts and will shatter all your illusions.

I have written this book so late in my life because I just did not know enough and perhaps still do not, as you may perceive by my queries and controversial statements throughout. My wish is that this book will be affordable for all young people who could benefit from my experience and advice, thus helping them to cope with the most bewildering, hostile, and unnatural environment that this planet has ever endured. It covers subjects from geology, including earthquakes and volcanoes, to financial and political problems that have had a great influence on the world, and the impacts that nature has had on our lives.

If you think having the devil snapping at your heels is scary, it''s nothing compared to finding God''s calm presence at your back every time you stop to draw breath in your race to escape-particularly for a determined agnostic like Claire. Indeed, His presence is so unnerving and unwelcome that it''s not until her world crumbles to ashes that she fi nds the courage to stop running and turn toward Him. Moderately psychic and a most earthbound mystic, Claire has heard the voice of Thomas from the days of earliest childhood, but has worked tirelessly for most of her adult life to shut it out or shout it down-until she made that fateful decision. Entanglement is the result of that choice. It describes the pain of surviving the traumatic deaths of four beloved people, fi nding the courage to walk away from abuse and oppression, and facing the fear of being utterly alone in the world. It also explains how confronting fear, accepting loss, and embracing the unknown and the mystical can create a life of enormous joy and enrichment. It focuses on how having the courage to stay in the "not-knowing" can be gloriously life-affirming and on how human life on earth is vastly more mysterious than most of us dare to imagine.
