Who doesn't yearn for more intimacy in their lives, either with others, with themselves or with the world at large? Deeper intimacy requires deeper vulnerability. As we open our hearts to a more expansive life we cannot help but stumble upon both terror and divinity. How to navigate these deep waters to become more of who we already are?

This first book in the series On Intimacy explores intimacy with self - without which truly authentic relationships with others are impossible. Who are we? As we become more comfortable within ourselves, how then to walk through the ever-changing fields of relating with others?

Self and Other will take you into yourself and move you where it matters.

Filled with an intangible source of vitality, this book is the perfect companion for all on a path to being fully alive.

It may even change your life.

What people have said about the book:

'Your words are in the same category as Tove Jasson and Ali Smith...I save their words and yours, to read gently and be able to savour them in unpressured time.'

'Her wicked humour and stunning presence is spellbinding.'

'A massive gossip The chat that we all wish we could have with our girlfriends every single day because we'd all be much healthier for it but time and space just sort of get in the way - so it's really nice just to read it.'

'It feels so very similar to worlds I felt that opened to me in books like 'Women Who Run With The Wolves' I don't know...that world that is so hard to define with words, and yet somehow these women have used words to conjure up what I feel but cannot express myself...'

'I felt that I was in a different dimension, a parallel universe, somewhere safe so I could find new meanings and universes which didn't necessarily have anything to do with the original words. Quite delightful.'
