This inspiring and prescriptive book leads us from the emotional chaos of the reactive mind to the clarity of the responsive mind

As Founder of the Life Balance Institute, Phillip Moffitt has observed that most people lack clarity about their life's direction and the ability to cope with its inevitable challenges. Now, in Emotional Chaos to Clarity, he provides the antidote by showing us the path of skillful living. Grounded in Western psychology and Buddhist philosophy, each chapter introduces a mind state that prevents us from living skillfully, narrates stories from Moffitt's hundreds of students and clients, and provides step-by-step exercises for readers to find clarity in their own lives. Among the many benefits of skillful living are being able to gain wisdom from both pleasant and unpleasant experiences and having an inner life which can flourish, even if our outer life is filled with difficulty.

When life doesn’t go our way, we often react with feelings like anger, frustration, worry, or doubt causing emotional chaos, distorted thinking and unwise decisions. Phillip Moffitt teaches us another way: to respond in a clear-headed, honest manner, using the techniques of mindfulness and intention. The practices, meditations and lessons he offers are designed to help us gain insight into who we are and set daily intentions based on what we value most, to stay the course when challenged and build the skills to view all aspects of our lives as opportunities to seek clarity and act authentically from our highest intentions. The former CEO of Esquire, Moffitt is founder of the Life Balance Institute.
