This review is from: Wanting More: The Challenge of Enjoyment in the Age of Addiction (Paperback)

I am a proffesional counselor with eight years experience. I have worked with addictions from weight loss to abuse and find this book a very clean and balanced presentation. This book summarizes what I want everyone to learn and understand about the choices we all make and the thoughts that we struggle with as human beings. I recommend this book to anyone wanting a better understanding of themselves and others. I also have had a chance to meet the author and found him to be authentic and caring.

5.0 out of 5 stars How to break the soul-impoverished downward spiral, March 19, 2001

By 

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Wanting More: The Challenge of Enjoyment in the Age of Addiction (Paperback)

In Wanting More: The Challenge Of Enjoyment In The Age Of Addiction, psychologist and therapist Mark Chamberlain shows how to break the soul impoverished downward spiral of acquiring more and more, even while we enjoy our possessions less and less. Chamberlain offers insightful, articulate, and practical commentary regarding the time-honored principles of self-control, patience, and awareness (regardless of personal circumstance) that will enhance the quality and enjoyment of our daily lives, relationships, and activities. Wanting More is an impressive and very welcome addition to self-help and self-improvement reading lists and library reference collections.

This review is from: Wanting More: The Challenge of Enjoyment in the Age of Addiction (Paperback)

This book gives a candid perspective on how we dull our senses and our capacity to enjoy life...and ultimately provides a game plan to regain our sensitivity to life's little pleasures! It's a thought provoking book that is definitely worth the read...
