How to Be Loving

As Your Heart Is Breaking Open and Our World Is Waking Up

De: Danielle LaPorte

Narrado por: Danielle LaPorte

How to use the genius of your heart to create conditions for healing—yourself and the collective—from a contemporary, accessible, loving sage.

A heart centered life is a reflective life, and when we live more reflectively, we operate less reactively. With her signature relatability, Danielle LaPorte turns self-help right side out. “Don’t try to life hack your way through fear–that only creates more fear.” And stop suppressing your ego: “It will put up a fight, but the ego just wants to be loved–integrated, not segregated.”

The bestselling author explains why self-acceptance is counterculture, how virtues can turn into dangerous vices, and why healing is a nonlinear process that leads to gentleness. The most liberating message might be, “We don't need to focus on ‘fixing’ ourselves. As we focus on living from our heart center, anything that’s not in alignment with that light will fall away.”

Designed with reflective practices and inspirational mini posters, the tone is calm and steady, but there’s an urgency to this content. “The heart-mind is our greatest and often most neglected form of intelligence," teaches Danielle. “There’s no polarization in the heart space. It can hold fear and compassion, shadow and light–yours and theirs. We’re yearning to come into balance with love. It’s the antidote to polarization.”

LaPorte examines the misidentifications that cause suffering and helps us identify with our Divine Nature. “You are not the wound. You're the healer.” Her wisdom is relief in anxious times.

This book is a vessel of distilled, loving snd comforting wisdom that is deeply engaging. Danielle offers transformative self reflection questions in the gentlest of ways. Her voice is soothing and her laughter is contagious. With humour and authenticity, Danielle shares her heart and her learning for all of us to receive.

One of my go to self-help reads

I purchased this book when it first came out and will listen to it a few times every year.

A joy to listen to!

I love that it was Danielle herself narrating it. Felt like I was in a room or class with her for those beautiful 6 hours.
Definitely a book I’ll be listening to again and again.

Full of excellent messages

So much of the content of this book resonated with me. I’m really glad I listened to it. LaPorte quotes many great teachers and masters and weaves them into her own inspired narrative.

Amazing content with conversational delivery

The content is amazing, but more importantly, the way she reads it is conversational and relaxed. It’s rare for an audiobook to sound as relaxed as a podcast interview but somehow this is. There’s the pauses and extra words that we have in conversations that are usually not in audiobooks, and that makes this such a wonderful listen. It’s funny and true and she knows us so well. I appreciate her high level perspective and will listen to this many many times.

Love anarchy!

Incredible in every way - a recipe to save the world, starting with our own soul, rippling outward - this is one of those rare breed audiobooks that is smashingly better than the hard copy, which is also fantastic!

A stand out amongst the volumes of healing and spiritual books

What a beautiful book. Danielle does an incredible job weaving together the fabric of her self-healing, teachings and experiences into thoughtful and practical wisdom. I can’t wait to listen to this book again. Thanks Danielle for sharing your lessons with the world.
