a deep read… When You are Falling, Dive.. lessons in the art of living by Mark Matousek
Do survivors of life’s greatest trials possess a secret knowledge? Why do some people blossom through adversity while others fall apart? What mysterious power gets us back on our feet after we’ve been knocked down. The answer: viriditas, the power of drawing passion, beauty, and wisdom from the unlikeliest places.
InWhen You’re Falling, Dive, the author examines this remarkable phenomenon. Seeking advice from well known survivors such as Joan Didion, Elie Wiesel and Isabel Allende, as well as philosophical experts like Eckhart Tolle, Jon Kabat-Zinn, and Sogyal Rinpoche, he brings twenty-five years of personal experience to the paradoxical question of how disaster can be used to awaken and transform us.

I recommend listening to the radio show archive link as you will notice why this book will be a great read for just about anyone. It is imperative that we “tune up” our brains, ourselves, our spirits and our bodies to progress in life. This way it becomes infinitely more enjoyable. To remain stagnant is both boring and a dangerous way to live.
