Dudgeon\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA carefully structured combination of essays and stories - partnering fiction with nonfiction - based on years of research, and the author's personal philosophy and experiences, \u003ci\u003eThe Psychosomatic Survival Guide\u003c\/i\u003e directs the reader toward a clearer, more positive path for living in today's fragmented, and often mentally negative, modern world. The Guide traverses a course that thoroughly entertains as it evolves into a developing tale of characters finding personal discovery of life, while, at the same time, explaining its own purpose as a guide. \u003ci\u003eThe Psychosomatic Survival Guide\u003c\/i\u003e is both an explanation and a celebration of the Human Experience. Partially comedic, partially spiritual, and entirely fulfilling, it may be the most entertaining advice that money can buy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the Back Cover\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen someone utters the phrase, 'Stop and smell the roses, ' it conjures up a mental image of two possible personality types: one that has been run ragged by the fast pace of modern society, and just needs a break or some stress-relief; and one that has sniffed the roses, but wants to know the \u003ci\u003edeeper\u003c\/i\u003e meaning of why one should do this. This guide is intended for those of you, who, like both the smeller of roses \u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e the runner of rat races, seek a larger, more beautiful understanding of the magnitude of existence, among other things. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the Author, Dan L Dudgeon\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI originally wrote this Guide in 1996 for two different reasons: one, a 'survival guide' was a format that I felt best encapsulated what I needed to express to others; and two, as an answer to what I perceived as an ongoing theme of total confusion in the world of metaphysics and spiritual enlightenment. In the recent past, numerous authors, filmmakers, and self-entitled New Age gurus had created an enormous realm of half-truths and almost-answers, toppling over onto a base of subliminal religious fundamentalism. This situation created in me a sense of anger and distress, not only because of the unbridled lack of responsibility by these persons, but because of the fact that I could personally see through all the hype and confusion, yet had no channel through which to pass along my own wisdom. So, I grabbed a pen and paper and didn't stop until I had what I considered to be a complete work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt has taken me ten years to publish because I have had to work for a living, and editing and refining a text of this size requires time and mental dedication, resources which I have not had in abundance. However, due to what I have witnessed more recently as an \u003ci\u003eurgent\u003c\/i\u003e need for clarity, I have finalized and published my guide. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNow I present to you \u003ci\u003eThe Psychosomatic Survival Guide\u003c\/i\u003e. I enjoyed writing it, and I hope you enjoy reading, and maybe get a little light of understanding in the process.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDan L Dudgeon is also a photographer, songwriter, and musician.
