High Intention, Low Attachment: Volume I
The Exhaustion of Holding On
A Trilogy About Peace, Presence, and Letting Go
Most suffering does not come from caring too much. It comes from holding too tightly.
In this powerful first volume of the High Intention. Low Attachment trilogy, award-winning author Keith Thorn explores the hidden exhaustion that comes from trying to control outcomes, protect expectations, and force life to unfold according to our plans.
Drawing from Ki-Aikido philosophy, faith, grief, relationships, creativity, aging, and everyday life, Thorn examines the tension between intention and attachment. Through deeply personal stories and reflective insights, he reveals how even our best efforts can become sources of frustration when peace is tied to circumstances beyond our control. Read Less
This is not a book about caring less. It is a book about caring deeply while loosening our grip on what we cannot command.
For anyone who has ever felt weary from carrying too much, fixing too much, or worrying too much, this first volume offers an honest and compassionate invitation to begin another way.
The journey toward freedom begins with recognizing the weight we were never meant to carry.
