'A book imbued with huge amounts of wisdom and personal honesty? It's such a rare find, and for me made The Impossible Question of Living Well a richly worthwhile reading experience. I learned much from Helen Street's words.'

“In life, everything changes. In this engaging book, Dr. Helen Street offers gems of wisdom on living with impermanence in all its forms: growth, change, loss, recovery, and growth again. Derived from her personal experiences, her Buddhist practice, and her scholarly work, these chapters go straight from the author’s heart to the reader’s, with gifts that are many and deep.”
Professor Richard Ryan
Co-founder of Self-Determination Theory
“If you are a human, this book is for you. The Impossible Question of Living Well challenges us to consider how the difficult times in our lives, despite their discomfort, are an essential part of living a whole life. Helen’s candour and wisdom guides us on how we can learn to live with more ease, more acceptance, and greater connection."
Janis Coffey

“…how can we fully and deeply connect to what matters, while knowing that one day, what matters will be lost?
How can we move on from an experience of loss without regret or resentment?
How can we find the courage to continually make new connections, defining ourselves according to things that matter, but do not last?
Is it possible to love deeply, and to also know how to let go?
I believe it is.”
