In this latest work, J. Ibeh Agbanyim, in collaboration with Raveen Arora, expands on the precepts of his previous works and addresses the idea of metacognition or mindfulness and the potential within all of us to affect the condition of our immediate social environments.

A break-up doesn't have to be just another sad love song. Break-Up to Breakthrough takes an insightful and illuminating look at the positive transformations and life-enhancing healing that can be experienced when a relationship ends.
