Ready

“Ready posits that making important decisions is not about drawing up lists of pros and cons, consulting experts, or honing your willpower. Rather, it is about knowing yourself deeply, inhabiting each moment fully, and then letting the world speak to you in its infinite wisdom (which is not separate from your own). If you’re looking for a way to make decisions you can trust, this book is for you.”—Susan Piver, author of The Four Noble Truths of Love

“Ready is a superbly succinct guide through the entanglements of fear, doubt, regret, and grief to a deepening trust of our decisions about our commitments and the skills needed to time them exquisitely. The journey through the practices is to be expertly companioned by a wise elder and a caring friend.”—Linda Graham, MFT, author of Resilience

“Ready is the antidote to one of the most common crossroads we all experience as human beings—knowing when it is truly time to stay or go. Let this insightful guide support you in learning the language of readiness and cuing the courage required to make the big changes you seek.”—Amanda Gilbert, author of Kindness Now

“Based on decades guiding patients, as well as on his own struggles with these sometimes-mystifying patterns and questions, Richo breaks down how we can find the language for our hunch that something needs to change, and then—guided by writing, reflection, and meditative exercises—honor where we’ve been and decide with clarity and visceral confidence how to move forward.”—Lion’s Roar
 
“Ready is an invaluable modern-day guide for the perplexed.”—Foreword Reviews, Starred Review
