The Gift: 12 lessons to save your life
Edith Egar
In The Gift, Eger explains that the worst prison she experienced is not the prison that Nazis put her in but the one she created for herself, the prison within her own mind.
She describes the twelve most pervasive imprisoning beliefs she has known—including fear, grief, anger, secrets, stress, guilt, shame, and avoidance—and the tools she has discovered to deal with these universal challenges.
Accompanied by stories from Eger’s own life and the lives of her patients each chapter includes thought-provoking questions and takeaways, such as:
- Would you like to be married to you?
- Are you evolving or revolving?
- You can’t heal what you can’t feel.
Filled with empathy, insight, and humor, The Gift captures the vulnerability and common challenges we all face and provides encouragement and advice for breaking out of our personal prisons to find healing and enjoy life.

Time
Please arrive at 18:10 for a 18:15 start sharp, so we can squeeze the most discussion out of the session :)
We will wrap up around 19:40 as the library needs us out by 19:45
There will then be an option to go for a drink at a nearby pub if anyone is interested.
As always please feel free to contact me with any questions etc, or post on the group wall.
