Praise for The Way of Integrity:

“Martha Beck is always full of insights. This book didn't disappoint! Beck identifies the ways culture works against integrity and touches on Dante's Inferno, includes quizzes, and rethinks suffering.”
—Good Morning America
“The Way of Integrity is about the redemptive power of discovering, speaking and living the truth about who you are. . . . The book vibrates with magic, intelligence, and love. It brims with humor, spirituality, fascinating science, and even Dante’s Divine Comedy. This radiant book will not only change your life, but perhaps even save it.” 
—Elizabeth Gilbert, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Eat, Pray, Love

“Martha Beck’s genius is that her writing is equal parts comforting and challenging. A teacher, a mother, a sage, she holds our hand as she leads us back home to ourselves.” 
—Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Untamed and founder of Together Rising

“This is a book I will read over and over again. The journey within is a pilgrimage that can help to heal the soul and make a world whole.” 
—Bishop Michael Curry

“The Way of Integrity is Martha Beck at her finest: one hundred percent pure distilled wisdom, truth, and illumination, delivered always with humor. There’s no one I’d trust more to get me out of the dark woods.” 
—Susan Casey, New York Times bestselling author of Voices in the Ocean

“By the end of this profound, funny, and beautifully crafted book, I finally understood that the ‘wild beasts’ of my own negativity, impatience, and anger are actually my friends, sent to show me when I am straying from my true path. This book that will help anyone get back on the path and walk more joyfully toward their full integrity.” 
—Elizabeth Lesser, cofounder of Omega Institute and New York Times bestselling author of Broken Open

“Beck is my kind of writer: smart, funny, and no-bullshit. In this hit-you-between-the-eyes book, she shows us how easily we fall out of integrity even in small ways, like why we often say “yes” when we mean “no.” In an effort to fit into the confines of social constructs—family, work, culture—we subvert our integrity in the name of love, security, and acceptance. I had no idea how out-of-integrity I am in certain areas of my life. Beck’s book has empowered me to take ownership and action.”
—Esquire

“Beck’s holistic interpretation of integrity is refreshing. It doesn't feel stiff and constricting. For me, it really lands. It lines up. It feels like truth.” 
—Houston Chronicle

“Beck freely shares her own journey and challenges pilgrims to face up to fears and embrace their inner guides. . . . Many will be moved by Beck’s sincerity and lucid techniques.” 
—Booklist
