The follow-up to the top-seller ‘How To Kill A Narcissist’

You have successfully broken free and are on the path to recovery. Yet the weight of emotional abuse still plagues you, and you seem to keep attracting narcissists.

Break free of narcissism for good by:

1. Gaining a bulletproof understanding of the psychology and sociology of narcissism, which gifts you an indispensable bird's-eye view.
2. Diving deep into your authentic Self and undergoing a complete transformation, which empowers you beyond measure.

Throughout this book, the mythology of the hero’s journey will serve as a guide. Like the hero in the story, you will leave the familiar behind, venture into the depths of your shadow, and conquer the ‘demons’ of your past, before returning with the ‘gold’: an actualised Self immune from narcissistic abuse.

‘How To Bury A Narcissist’ is one of the last books on the topic you will need. It is an all-inclusive reference on narcissism and a spiritual guide for transformation, separated into four parts:

I. THE ORIGINS OF SELFHOOD

Learn the building blocks of the True Self; security, vitality, tenacity, divinity and wisdom, and understand how they combine to actualise your power and give your life purpose and meaning.

II. THE AGE OF NARCISSISM

— Discover the shadowy roots of narcissism.
— Expose the many hidden faces of the narcissist, including the borderline, the histrionic, the psychopath, and other cluster A, B and C personalities.
— Study the narcissist's playbook, including triangulation, gaslighting and reactive abuse.
— Explore in detail the roles and dynamics of the narcissistic family and see how this blueprint corrupts friendships, workplaces and spiritual movements.
