Publisher Description
'This is a book everyone must read, many times over' VEX KING
A radically compassionate plan for turning inward and lifting the heaviness that prevents us from healing ourselves and the world, from the New York Times bestselling author of Clarity & Connection
"During the years when I had abandoned myself, my mind felt undeniably heavy. I knew I needed to find a clear way to help me feel lighter."
yung pueblo's path to deep healing began only after years of drug abuse had taken a toll on his body and soul. Searching for a way forward, he discovered that by facing his anxieties and fears, trusting his intuition and focusing on meditation he felt mentally lighter and finally at home in his heart and mind.
In Lighter, yung pueblo reveals how we can all move forward in our healing, from learning self-compassion and letting go to becoming emotionally mature. This is a transformative guide to making our actions become more intentional, our decisions more compassionate, our thinking clearer and our future much brighter.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Instagrammer Pueblo (Clarity & Connection), the pen name of Diego Perez, delivers inspiring if rose-colored musings on spiritual healing. He offers personal anecdotes and meditations on how to achieve transformation by looking inward and explores the "healing of the individual as you cross deeper thresholds and move from human habit to human nature." The author recounts how a medical crisis sparked by drug abuse in his early 20s led him to realize he had been using drugs to "cover up a void in myself that I did not have the courage to face." Describing how self-love helped him improve, he recommends practicing "compassion, honesty, and openness" with oneself and letting go of emotional baggage to enable personal growth. Pueblo attempts to scale up these principles to mixed effect, advocating for such thoughtful policies as participatory budgeting and town halls to foster community alongside naive pleas to combat war, racism, and patriarchy with compassion. Readers will appreciate Pueblo's candor about his struggle to love himself, though his irrepressible optimism proves a double-edged sword: it's uplifting when focused on the self, but inadequate when applied to systemic injustice. Still, Pueblo's fans will be grateful for the guidance.
