Sample Book Insights:

#1 Our culture is gluttonous for pleasure, and sexually ravenous. But very few of us seem to be able to fully experience the sensations or satisfaction we seek. Why is this the case.

#2 Our senses have become overwhelmed by the abundance of easy-to-access, seemingly endless supply of quick-fix pleasures. But are we actually that turned on. The answer is no, and we are constantly being bombarded with advertisements for antidepressant and antianxiety medications to help us feel better.

#3 The most basic enjoyments of life seem to be out of reach for millions of people. It is as if one of our most natural and necessary drives has become stunted.

#4 Some of us have inherited a vulnerability to anhedonia, which can manifest as anxiety. In 1979, I experienced my first panic attack, which was the result of a perfect storm of a medical issue that imbalanced my hormones, a time of developmental stress, and a huge side order of trauma and loss.
