The book
Awareness That Heals
Bringing Heart and Wisdom to Life’s Challenges
Robert Strock, a psychotherapist of more than fifty years, distills a lifetime of inner work into a practical guide for meeting life’s challenges — especially in the moments we’re prone to self-criticism or withdrawal. He asks you to read it not just as a reader, but as a participant: let yourself get personally involved.
Inside the book
What you’ll find inside
Drawn from a lifetime of self-exploration and his clients’ breakthroughs, the book turns inner work into practices you can actually use — meeting the moments you’re hardest on yourself with more care.
- Hearing your own tone of voice — and how it shapes the way you treat yourself
- Vocal and breathing practices that move you toward healing
- Accessing your inner wisdom in the hardest moments
- Recognizing patterns of self-abandonment and self-criticism
- Self-care practices that counter self-rejection
- Meeting anger constructively while honoring your deeper needs
