Contemporary times have seen a growing malaise affecting our youth: Gang membership has grown 40 percent in three years, suicide is up 89 percent in twelve-to fourteen-year-old adolescents in the last two decades, anti-depressant use in children is up over 400 percent and 40 percent of all children are born outside of marriage. Bullying, cutting, anorexia, and antisocial personality disorders are all on the rise. Running on Empty presents a powerful case for the cause behind these destructive trends, and offers a hopeful and unique paradigm to help youth transcend their deepening pain. Through blending ancient wisdom with contemporary psychological insights, this book offers a comprehensive path for transformation that can end youth's suffering and reverse the downward-spiraling trends.
