What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
We hold the power – now – to live this one precious life undimmed.
The current thinking about any escapist behaviour is binary: either you have a ‘problem’ or you don’t. But any ‘dimmer’ habit – whether it’s alcohol, social media or any other behaviour or substance we use to self-soothe or avoid difficult emotions – exists on a spectrum.
In Undimmed, Cecily Mak presents a revolutionary approach to transforming our relationship with anything that dims our light. Rather than waiting until addiction appears, she offers a different approach that gives you the power, agency and choice to start making positive changes in your life. You’ll learn how to address the root causes of escapist tendencies, cultivate self-trust and heal so you can eliminate the need to ‘dim’ at all.
Undimmed will forever alter how you perceive so-called addiction and empower you to break free from unhealthy habits, so you can live a life filled with clarity, connection and well-being.
'This book offers a promising pathway of self-liberation for many people trapped in the distressing and hazardous liminal space between occasional alcohol use and full-blown addiction, developed by one who has pioneered this road for herself.' – Gabor Maté, New York Times bestselling author'
'A practical guide for deepening self-awareness, agency, and freedom.' –Yung Pueblo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Lighter
