From the bestselling author of Minding the Body, Mending the Mind: an accessible guide to healing the destructive effects of guilt.
The reaction by parents, teachers and peers to our own actions often determines our sense of self - how confident we feel and how secure we are about our place in the world. When self-blame and pessimism begin to overtake self-esteem and optimism, the rest may be emotional, physical and spiritual distress.
In Guilt is the Teacher, Love is the Answer, Dr. Joan Borysenko, a Harvard Ph.D., explores this mind/body connection as she offers personal and professional advice for journeying toward recovery and self-love.
Here at last is an insightful and uplifting approach for turning the teachings of guilt into the lessons of love.

About the Author:
EVERYONE CARRIES GUILT WITH THEM AS PART OF THEIR PSYCHOLOGICAL MAKE UP – BUT THERE IS AN EASIER WAY
This inspirational work explores how chronic self blame and pessimism can lead to physical, emotional and spiritual distress. It will guide you on a healing voyage of recovery as you learn to release the toxin of guilt from your mind and body and help you to achieve a refreshed sense of well being.
In her work at Harvard's mind/body clinic, Dr Borysenko encountered many patients whose physical illness did not respond to her treatment. Looking deeper, she discovered that the illness seemed likened to metaphysical problems, to a spiritual pessimism of guilt which coloured the lives of the patients concerned.
Using case history examples, affirmations, exercises and guided meditations, she helps readers to overcome their own toxic guilt and learn to embrace a new philosophy of spiritual optimism based on unconditional love, and compassion and forgiveness for others and themselves. This book will provide hope and spiritual refreshment for anyone suffering from feelings of unworthiness or dissatisfaction.
Dr Borysenko has been called 'a rare jewel: respected scientist, gifted therapist, and unabashed mystic'.
