Description
Living Like Crazy explores how our archetypal potential can be shaped by culture, leading us to live in ways that are destructive and unbalanced. Gilbert examines various aspects of human society, history, and evolution to reveal the psychological defenses we use to cope with suffering.
By discussing these factors, Gilbert demonstrates how cultivating compassion can help us achieve balance, connection, health, and a greater sense of social good. This thought-provoking book invites readers to consider the impact of our cultural influences on our lives and the importance of developing healthier ways of living.
