Today we move to chapter four of Allen's new book, emphasizing the healing power of awareness and the challenges of becoming aware of new possibilities for ourselves. We discover some possibilities we never knew about and others that we may have considered impossible to achieve. Key to walking the path of emotional sobriety is an understanding that we must be able to translate concepts that resonate with us into daily practice.
