Roles change. Language evolves. Perception moves.\nWhen identity becomes the foundation of stability, every revision can feel like a threat to who we are.\nThe Stable Self offers a calm and clear psychological examination of what actually holds a person steady when the world keeps revising them.\nAcross ten concise chapters, Kori Krauss explores how identity is shaped—and destabilized—by the pressures of aging, work, relationships, and social change. Rather than rejecting identity, this book reveals why relying on it as the primary source of stability can create unnecessary fragility.\nThe result is a different way of understanding the self:\nIdentity can change.\nRoles can evolve.\nLanguage can shift.\nBut something deeper remains capable of observing, adapting, and staying steady through it all.\nWritten with clarity and restraint, The Stable Self is for readers navigating transition, uncertainty, or personal reinvention—and for anyone interested in understanding what truly anchors the human mind when everything else is in motion.\nIdentity is important.\nBut it isn’t everything.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0GRWXCGT1\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0GRWXCGT1.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Krauss, Kori\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
