Intrinsic Hope cover

This book offers a transformative perspective on hope, emphasizing trust and positivity in challenging times. Intrinsic Hope provides practical habits for cultivating a resilient mindset.

Maintaining hope in a world that often feels like it's falling apart can be a daunting task. Intrinsic Hope provides a refreshing perspective on how to navigate through despair by encouraging readers to break free from the limitations of conventional hope. Instead of relying on the belief that life will meet our expectations, the book introduces the concept of 'intrinsic hope,' which is rooted in a deep trust in life itself. This approach empowers individuals to cultivate a sense of positivity and resilience, regardless of external circumstances.

In today's world, characterized by climate disruption, social inequality, and rampant pollution, many are grappling with feelings of fear and grief. Intrinsic Hope serves as a powerful antidote to these emotions, offering insights into how traditional notions of hope can lead to disappointment. The author, drawing from personal experience as a hopeful survivor, shares practical strategies and six mindful habits that can help readers foster intrinsic hope, allowing them to live more courageously and positively during turbulent times.

This book is not just for those directly involved in ecological or social issues; it is for anyone who is concerned about the future and seeking a deeper, more sustainable source of hope. Whether you are worried about the world your children will inherit or simply wish to enhance your own outlook on life, Intrinsic Hope provides the tools necessary for a hopeful existence amidst uncertainty.
