Publisher's summary

Discover the art of creating deep and loving relationships - starting with yourself.

“You cannot give what you do not have,” teach HeatherAsh Amara and don Miguel Ruiz Jr. To build stronger and more loving relationships with others, the starting point is always your relationship with yourself. With The Art of Showing Up, Amara and Ruiz bring you a powerful audio workshop to undo the inner patterns that keep you trapped in cycles of conflict and misunderstanding - and help you build a foundation for all your relationships to flourish and grow.

Dispelling the illusion of conditional love

Most of us have been indoctrinated in the illusion that we should be rewarded with love when we are worthy and punished with abandonment when we are not. That is called conditional love - which leads to power struggles, deception, and the need to “domesticate” each other. Yet conditional love is learned, and can be unlearned. Using insights and guided meditations, Amara and Ruiz offer seven essential arts to help you locate the places where you are stuck in conditional thinking, so you may open again and again to a love that reflects the purest expression of yourself.

In the Toltec wisdom taught by HeatherAsh Amara and don Miguel Ruiz Jr., you learn to replace the conditions of love with agreements. These agreements arise freely from a place of mutual respect, curiosity, and honesty. With The Art of Showing Up, these masterful teachers reveal how you can cast aside the masks you wear in relationship with others and yourself - and discover the joy of unconditional love you were meant to share.

Just what I was looking for

The amount of images the author paints through the examples they explain is so colorful that it makes it easy to understand the point of what the lesson is and what is to be learned. Amazing job in this and i am truly grateful to have been passed this knowledge through this. Thank you.

A Must Read!

This book found me at the perfect time! I’m about to turn 50, my husband is about to retire, my kids are married and having kids of their own, my older family members are beginning to pass away, and we’re looking to move halfway across the country….to say I've recently felt overwhelmed by life is an understatement. This book was like a breath of fresh air!! It allowed me to look at my relationships with the people in my life, including the one with myself and see it for what it is, not what I think it should be. The relationship examples in the book are relatable, which makes it that much better! The final chapter on release brought me to tears in the most healthy way. I HIGHLY recommend this book and will listen to it again! 💯

This will change your life.

If you have embraced the four agreements, tgis work will push you over the edge of understanding into real growth and change.

WOW!

This by far has been one of the best Audio books I have listened to. I would recommend this book to everyone I know. So many things resonate with me in this. Some things made me look at things from a different perspective. Thank you! HeatherAsh and Don Miguel!

Love

Great Job to both authors well written and read. This book spoke to me. The material is relatable to every human behavior and relationship

Be yourself

It was the hardest thing for me, growing up, to be myself and love who I truly am. I will continue showing up and presenting my full self.

Life-changing advice. I will listen to it again.

If all of us listened to this information, there would be less divorces, less break-ups and more happiness in the world due to less conflict and unnecessary relationship drama.

I recommend this book to EVERYONE.

This is a life changing book. I recommend it to anyone who has ever been in a relationship, is in a relationship, or looking to be in a relationship. It is also incredibly helpful in strengthening the relationship with oneself, as well as with family, friends, and for simply living a more authentic life. I wish I could have listened to this book when I was a teenager, when I was just starting to enter into romantic relationships, and getting to know myself. I believe my life would have been much different if I had. This is not to say I'm ungrateful for where I am now, because I truly am! But these lessons and insights are powerful tools that could have helped me on my journey, and I know I would have experienced much less heartbreak in my life if I had read this sooner. Thank you Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. and HeatherAsh Amara for all the love you both put into creating this book and for releasing it into the world. May it spread like wildfire! Will there be a hardcopy someday? I hope!
Thank you again. I am grateful beyond measure. ❤️🙏🏼❤️

This book helped me a lot.

This was a great book insightful and eye opening. It's definitely helped me with personal growth. I recommend to anyone going through a tough time or just wanting to know themselves on a deeper level.

So many seeds were planted....

When Heatherash Amara and DMRJ come together something magical occurs and you get books like this. I learned so much and enjoyed hearing it from both sides of the spectrum. It is narrated by both of them and the extra meditations at the end of each really helped me to soak up and summarize each session.
