Therapist David Richo draws on four decades of counseling individuals and couples to create a manual on how to nurture the best in ourselves and in our relationships. His core message: we already possess all the wisdom and compassion we need to have healthy relationships and a happy life—we just need to know how to bring forth our natural strengths and abilities, including kindness, understanding, and strength.

Topics include:


   • How to care for ourselves as the basis of caring for others
   • Finding freedom from fear
   • Maintaining healthy boundaries in relationships
   • Developing greater honesty with ourselves and others
   • Letting go of regret



The book also includes practical exercises—including journaling, contemplation, and guided meditations—to foster inward growth and lasting positive change.

This book is a completely revised and updated edition of Everyday Commitments.
