"Gillett deals with the most pressing issue in our so-called civilized society— us versus them. And refreshingly, he provides realistic solutions on how to be happy and effective when everything is a Freakin’ Mess around us. Bravo."

AN EXCERPT FROM MY NEW BOOK

 

It’s a Freakin’ Mess:
How to Thrive in Divisive Times

It’s a Freakin’ Mess provides practical ways for us to transcend the toxic worlds of political and social divisiveness—with their constant invitations into worry or outrage—and stand in our own innate strength, experiencing the pleasure of living according to our own values. Yes, it is a freakin’ mess out there—but we don’t need to be. And when we’re not, we have a greater chance of being effective in changing our society for the better.

This is a book on how to feel free, happy, and at peace during divisive times—and how this translates into being more effective personally and socially.


Common concerns and questions the book addresses:

  • How can I best handle my frustration with people in power who I believe are not telling the truth or are exaggerating for personal or political profit?

  • What do I do about my deep worry about the future of our democracy?

  • How do I mend broken bridges between myself and friends or family after we’ve argued so heatedly — or distanced ourselves so coldly — over different political affiliations?

  • How do I best handle my outrage about the prejudices and unequal opportunities in my country?

  • What can I do to help make my country less divisive?

"It’s a Freakin’ Mess: How to Thrive in Divisive Times is a book about transformation – how we can change our inner turmoil and frustration about political and social issues into peace and equanimity even as we work to make this world a better place. Dr. Gillett shows how anger and fear shut down our higher brain centers and cause us pain, and, conversely, how we can remedy this by practicing open-heartedness. I tried this by doing one of Dr. Gillett’s short exercises and found that it changed my state from fear of the people on the opposite side of an issue to a sense of calm, and helped make the outcome positive for all of us. I highly recommend this book."

— MARJORIE WOOLLACOTT, PhD, neuroscientist, Emeritus Professor of Human Physiology at the University of Oregon, author of the multiple award-winning book, Infinite Awareness
