Awakening from the Deep Sleep: A Powerful Guide for Courageous Men

EAN/UPC/ISBN Code 9780062506948


After years of socialization that mandates fierce independence, invulnerability and strength, many men fall into what psychotherapist Robert Pasick calls a "deep sleep". This book offers men a guide to change - drawing from the author"s experience of counter-selling midlife men, the author explores the issues of work, anger, grief, women, sexuality, fatherhood and addiction. He emphasizes a new definition of manhood that builds upon the strengths men already have and leads then towards a new discovery of how to take care of themselves and others. By the co-author of "Men in Therapy".
