So much of our lives are spent running—from pain, from vulnerability, and from everyday struggle. Jeff Foster understands that sense of pursuit. After years of depression and illness, he came to realize that what he had been seeking had been available to him all along—he needed only to shed his resistance and step into the limitless ocean of the present moment. In Jeff's words, "The armor we wear to protect ourselves from the full experience of life does not really protect us—it just keeps us comfortably numb."
In The Deepest Acceptance, Jeff provides readers with a series of insights intended to help strip away that armor and embrace life now, as it is and as you are. This warm, humorous, and candid offering invites us to stop trying to "do" acceptance and start falling in love with "what has already been allowed."

      Starred review from February 1, 2013

      This book arrives with little fanfare, but has something important to say. Foster, an English-born student of astrophysics, shares his difficult journey toward acceptance of the mess, the variegated experiences, of life itself: "Our deepest fear...is the fear of life." Foster writes clearly and sincerely, addressing issues like suffering, addictions, and love. VERDICT Nonsectarian, unassuming, and accessible, Foster's book achieves substantial commonsense wisdom; highly recommended for the general reader.
