<p>We all yearn for connection, yet often feel trapped by our sense of isolation, anger, and envy. Ultimately, our minds get in the way of fulfilling this yearning; we spin stories and assumptions around in our heads that keep us feeling alienated from one another. In <i>Real Love, </i>bestselling author and meditation teacher Sharon Salzberg shows how we can redefine our limited definition of &quot;love&quot; to enhance our connection to ourselves and each other.</p><p> Salzberg provides a pathway towards more sustainable and authentic connection by offering a creative toolkit of mindfulness exercises and meditation techniques that guide us to strip away our layers of habit to access a truer understanding of love, &quot;<i>real love</i>.&quot; This journey enables us to become more present and to begin to experience real love -- love based on direct interactions, rather than preconceptions. When we are truly engaged in these present experiences we are not only able to feel more connected to our own core selves, but also to those around us, and ultimately to life itself.</p>
