From Fantasy Trust to Real Trust: Learning from Our Disappointments and Betrayals, Paperback/Krishnananda Trobe

Descriere

This book deals with the roots of our mistrust and the ways that we can learn to recover our lost sense of trust. What we normally consider trust is actually a false trust, a childish, fantasy trust. This kind of false trust is dependent on how others and life treats us. Life teaches us through the painful experiences of disappointment and betrayal how to learn a new kind of trust, a real sense of trust which comes from inside and no longer dependent on outside events and experiences. Trust arises first from retrieving self-trust and then trust towards others follows naturally from that re-discovery. In the book, the authors teach by sharing liberally from their own personal experiences and also with examples from their work as international seminar leaders. About the Author: Krishnananda (Thomas Trobe, M. D.) and Amana (Gitte Demant Trobe) have been leading seminars together since 1995.
