From my list on personal growth books that use more logic and science than New Age thinking to overcome self-imposed limitations and flourish.
Why am I passionate about this?
Fascinated with consciousness, spirituality, and the power of mind, I started reading books by Thich Nhat Hahn, Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, and Alan Watts as early as 5th grade.

Knowing there was more to understanding truth beyond logic, I balanced out my worldview with an M.A. in transpersonal psychology.
