On The Table Read Magazine, “the best book magazine in the UK“, Paddy Rafter’s life as an artist was also bloated with trauma, addiction and time in mental health units. In new book, The 48 Acts, he shares with readers the steps he took to finally discover his true self.
The 48 Acts
Irishman Paddy Rafter’s passion for his subject matter and belief that we all have the capacity to make change is clear in his new book, The 48 Acts. After living a life of teetering on the edge of despair, Paddy now shares with readers the process that enabled the him to come back from the edge, and live a fulfilling, authentic and valued life. Sharing his backstory of abandonment, rejection, bullying and the first signs of mental health issues being displayed during a breakdown at aged ten, he imparts the process he undertook to rediscover his true self.
With negativity surrounding so many of us on a daily basis, the modern world is a hotbed of addiction, abuse, depression and anxiety. But there is a way you can heal and recover from the issues which are holding you back. The 48 Acts is a guide to happiness and contentment, setting out how we can not only improve our lives for ourselves but for society as a whole.
Paddy Rafter has a personal understanding of what it is like to live a life afflicted by trauma and addiction. His own experiences have taken him to dark places, feeling alone, hopeless and misunderstood. As he fought to escape his own form of hell, Paddy discovered a new way of life which allowed him to discover true peace and happiness.
He has now brought this knowledge and experience together in a book designed to help others leave behind their lives of suffering, pain and isolation to find freedom and joy.
Taking readers step-by-step through the 48 Acts principles that changed how he related to anxiety, depression, addiction and coercive control, this book is all about jettisoning any previously held and damaging programming; and for readers to then do the work and take charge in order to unleash their own radically improved reality.
Paddy Rafter
We are all on a continuum. On the one end of this continuum are the people whose lives are greatly impacted by addiction, anxiety, obesity, depression, coercive controlling relationships, and then on the other end of the same continuum are the people who feel left out, who cannot understand why they are so unhappy, even though they appear to have everything.
If you feel you are in a rut, if you feel a failure, if you feel disappointed in that you have not achieved your potential or life has been unkind to you, you are not alone. If you feel that you are not who you wanted to be, if you feel unloved or unloving, dissatisfied and cynical and if you feel you are less than you hoped that you would be, then this is the book for you. But this is for all of us, this book and the ideas it contains. We are all there somewhere. We are all lost here somewhere.
There are no lies, deceits or false promises in the 48 Acts. The 48 Acts. offers no false hopes or snake oil salesman’s pitch. The 48 Acts work because they work.
