Reviews / Votes
Another wise offering from Steve Biddulph that manages to be both practically helpful and inspiring. He encourages us to tune into our felt selves as well as to connect with a wider sense of belonging. A lovely book. -- Sue Gerhardt, author <i>Why Love Matters </i> A kind and encouraging book, as well as being a helpful and essential tool for navigating modern life. I highlighted various sections and read lots of bits aloud. -- Cathy Rentzenbrink, author of <i>Dear Reader </i>and <i>The Last Act of Love</i> This very personal book provides great insight and depth to help us not only survive but to heal, grow and move forward with greater clarity and purpose. I loved this book and found it enormously helpful as I continue to navigate the twists and turns of my life. -- Rosie Batty, campaigner and founder of The Luke Batty Foundation Fully Human gives a name and structure to something that we all experience, but mostly ignore; our supersense. As I turned each page I could physically feel a reconnection to this long lost intelligence. This book is rocket fuel to your senses. -- Andy Ramage, author of <i>The 28 Day Alcohol-Free Challenge </i>and <i>Let's Do This!</i> Wise, candid and useful book. -- Fiona Capp * Sydney Morning Herald *More details
