ABOUT THE BOOK

This book is about self-sabotaging. How to quit doing it permanently, why we do it, and when we do it. Conflicting needs that coexist lead to self-destructive acts. Because of this, we often fight against change until it seems absolutely pointless. But we can get out of our own way and realize our potential by gaining important information from our worst behaviors, developing emotional intelligence by better understanding our minds and bodies, letting go of the past at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves. The mountain has served as a symbol for the significant obstacles we encounter for ages, particularly those that seem insurmountable. We truly need to perform the challenging internal work of resolving past trauma, fostering resilience, and changing how we approach the climb in order to climb our own mountains. In the end, we conquer ourselves, not the mountain.
