Publisher Description
An enlightening guide to success, fulfillment, wholeness, and plenty, offering practical advice on how to cultivate a sense of abundance in times of fear and insecurity, from New York Times bestselling author Deepak Chopra
“To attain wealth of the lasting kind, the kind that gives your life meaning, value, and sustenance, base your daily existence on the generosity of spirit.”—Deepak Chopra
Many of us live and operate from a mindset of lack, scarcity, and limitation. We focus on what we don’t have—financial security, confidence, an intimate relationship—which keeps us feeling insecure and inadequate. We think “if only I could have those things, I could be happy.” But measuring wealth by money or material possessions leaves us feeling drained and spiritually empty. Constantly striving for more often means our ego is driving our thoughts, actions, and reactions, which prevents us from reaching something greater: a true sense of inner peace, acceptance, and fulfillment.
Yet, there is an inner path to prosperity and wealth that, once charted and explored, provides access to the great riches of the universe and life’s unbounded possibilities.
In Abundance, international bestselling author Deepak Chopra illuminates this road to success and wholeness, helping readers tap into a deeper sense of awareness to become agents of change in their own lives. Mixing ancient teachings and spiritual practices with the wisdom he’s garnered over four decades as the leading figure in mind-body medicine, Deepak demonstrates how to transcend self-generated feelings of limitation and fear in order to experience true abundance in all aspects of life. To do so, he offers a seven-step plan along with meditations and mindfulness techniques to help you focus and direct your attention, energy, and intuition so you can experience stability, affluence, insight, creativity, love, and true power.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Chopra (Metahuman) presents an engaging guide meant to "transform consciousness into wealth" through yoga and meditation. Chopra opines that because the human mind invented money, "money is actually the coin of consciousness." He outlines the "inner path" to wealth and offers a seven-step plan to improve one's "money karma" by taking such measures as seeking downtime when feeling anxious, reflecting on such questions as "Can I be more open to new choices?" and acting on one's answers. The author encourages an "attitude of abundance" that rebukes austerity and privileges spiritual needs over material concerns. Easy-to-follow exercises, yoga instructions, and self-reflection questionnaires appear throughout, including, for instance, a set of questions intended to evaluate one's attitude toward "lack," and a controlled breathing activity to help one reach "simple awareness." However, Chopra's omission of supporting evidence sometimes undermines his claims, such as when he muses on the neuroscience of "mind over matter" and the relationship between consciousness and entropy. Though unlikely to convert skeptics, this will please the author's fans.
