  • "Western psychotherapy, with its emphasis on analyzing our backgrounds and feelings, has left millions anxious and confused. Constructive Living is the antidote. Brilliantly simple and effective, Constructive Living is an action-based way of looking at the world that combines good, old-fashioned straight talk and two celebrated Japanese psychotherapies: Morita and Naikan. The work of Dr. Shoma Morita emphasizes action - meeting every challenge to reach your goal. It shows us how to live thoughtfully and economically, to regard our actions as if they were divine rituals, and to perform them with the utmost care. Naikan therapy stresses focusing attention outward, avoiding self-absorption, and, especially, reflecting on our relationships to all those who give us life and make it easier. Here, in plain language, David Reynolds, the father of Constructive Living, has at last written the definitive guide for taking control of your life and imbuing it with greater meaning and productivity. He contends that contentment is achieved, not bestowed - attaining peace and satisfaction takes daily practice and learning. In this revolutionary book, David Reynolds is your teacher. With user-friendly anecdotes, practical exercises, and a good sense of humor, he refreshes the experienced student and takes the novice right to the beginning, laying out the essence of Constructive Living."
