The Mountain Is You

What’s the Book About?

This book is about self-sabotage. Why we do it, when we do it, and how to stop doing it—for good. Usually when we have a problem that is circumstantial, we are facing the reality of life. When we have a problem that is chronic, we are facing the reality of ourselves. Self-sabotage is simply the presence of an unconscious need that is being fulfilled by a self-sabotaging behavior.
