5 books for navigating the complexities of love

This is part 3 in a 3 part series.

Read Part 1 here: 9 books that could deeply influence how you live

Part 2 here: 9 books for deepening how you create + work

Reflections on the Art of Living: A Joseph Campbell Companion
Campbell’s theories on romantic love (it is potentially “superior” to familial love because it is intentionally chosen,) and the ego (it will get necessarily crucified on the way to true communion and intimacy,) bolster my faith and courage.

Women Who Run With The Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype, by Clarissa Pinkola Estes
(This one is required reading for Goddesses of all ages.)

Initiation, by Elisabeth Haich
An autobiography that connects the European life of beloved yoga teacher Elisabeth Haich and her lucid memories of initiation in mystical teachings of the priesthood in ancient Egypt. A wild ride.

The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work: A Practical Guide from the Country’s Foremost Relationship Expert, by John Gottman
Based on Gottman’s “Love Lab” research, this book analyzes the break downs in communication that kill love. Read it before you fall in love.

Grace and Grit: Spirituality and Healing in the Life and Death of Treya Killam Wilber, by Ken Wilber.

WE CONTRACT SO WE CAN EXPAND. 💗

➡️ Comment 145 for the link to listen.

Today we’re diving into Shenpa—a Tibetan Buddist term that’s translated as attachment, but it’s much more than that. It’s the hook, that triggering force that pulls us into habitual patterns of closing down. It’s the contraction reaction, not a conscious response.

You know that tight feeling? That’s Shenpa. It’s our soul’s invitation for integrity, pushing us to grow.

EPS 145 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE is about noticing the hook and making a better decision. It’s about not taking the emotional bait.

So that the next time you get triggered, take a breath, recognize the hook, and ask yourself, "What’s my soul inviting me to do here?"

Confused? Reach for Gratitude. She clears things up—and quick.

The frequency of Gratitude clarifies. It pulls you back to your power. Less emotional fluctuation—more presence.

GRATITUDE HEALS CONFUSION.

It’s science-backed, God-given and unlimited in its healing power. Like you.

Thankful for this life and our togetherness,
Danielle
