What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
Think of letting things go as setting them free.
Amid the relentless cycle of news, social media, emails and texts, it can be hard to know when, if ever, you can take a break. In this insightful book, renowned Zen Buddhist monk, Shunmyo Masuno, offers us a radical message: sometimes the best thing you can do is nothing at all.
You will learn 99 empowering tips and truths that will help you ease the pressure, including how to say no and accept that you cannot do what you cannot do, that social media is a tool and nothing more, that decisions should be made in the light of day – not rushed into – and that we should take more breaks the busier we become.
How to Let Things Go will teach you how to relinquish control and find a way to a calmer, more fulfilling life.

Critics Review
-
In Growing Up with Addiction, Tian Dayton offers a compassionate and insightful exploration of the intergenerational impact of relational trauma. By interweaving personal narrative, clinical wisdom, and embodied therapeutic practices, she creates a compelling bridge between lived experience and emerging neurobiology. Her willingness to share her own history adds rare authenticity, keeping the reader engaged on a deeply personal level. Just as importantly, her decades of clinical practice bring depth, clarity and grounded insight to complex emotional and relational dynamics. This book serves as both an accessible introduction and a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand – and heal – the legacy of trauma in families.'
