“This is not a conventional book of recipes for ‘happiness’ it is just a story told in first person about a piece of my life”.

Montse Barderi was unhappy with her life. Addicted to tobacco, a compulsive eater and with a tendency to fall into conflictive relationships, she was aware of her situation: she need to chance.

It is not about loosing weigh and quitting smoking, but to create an environment in which there is no need to smoke or eat compulsively. One thing is to want to change; the other is making the changes.

If you ever thought that self-help books only offer you a couple of meaningless formulas without any effect on your life, try this one: a thorough and precise ‘map of life” in which meditation, literature and self-help combine. Revolutionary and powerful.

At last, a book that helps readers in an intelligent way and provides them with intellectual and philosophical tools to overcome their addictions, demanding a higher comprension than a regular self-help book. 

Montse Barderi is graduate in philosophy, as well as a writer, researcher and communications specialist.
