Stop Fixin’, Start Feelin’: The Tao of Being a Better Patient is the ideal entry point for readers exploring the Tao Series because it addresses the foundation of any healing journey: the relationship you have with your own body and mind.
Unlike traditional self-help or medical guides, this book focuses on helping readers shift from a mindset of “fixing” to one of feeling, noticing, and understanding. It teaches practical strategies for working with your own energy, emotions, and physiology, so that healing becomes a collaborative process between you and your body rather than a passive expectation of magic or quick fixes.
By starting here, you will learn:
How to tune into the subtle messages of the body and mind.
Why patience, presence, and self-awareness are as powerful as any treatment or therapy.
How to approach healing without frustration, resistance, or unrealistic expectations.
This volume lays the groundwork for all other books in the Tao Series. Readers who begin with Stop Fixin’, Start Feelin’ gain the perspective and tools needed to fully benefit from subsequent books on stress, pain, enoughness, and other areas of personal and holistic growth.
In short, this book isn’t just a guide—it’s a manual for becoming your own best patient, helping you engage with the healing process more deeply, effectively, and sustainably.
