Ancient teachings inspire this contemporary, actionable method that leads you out of the "stuckness" of ordinary life toward joy, fulfillment, and abundance.
Imagine life as a hot air balloon ride. You constantly aspire to go to higher altitudes for smooth, happy sailing. Yet each time you try, your sandbags pull you down to bumpy lower altitudes, where you face challenging situations, difficult people, and negative thoughts. You feel stuck, lost, and confused.
As a former finance executive, Arda Ozdemir found himself feeling exactly like that. After years of suffering from chronic health issues, depression, and anxiety, he decided to take matters into his own hands and found relief in unique meditation and self-awareness tools like Qigong, Reiki, and Yoga Nidra. From his journey of awakening, he developed the Rise 2 Realize POWER Method, a practical five-step process to guide you out of suffering and emotional pain toward your higher personal and professional potential.
The Art of Becoming Unstuck: your personalized journey through consciousness in search of ultimate happiness is your guidebook for life. As you read it, you will learn how to identify, understand, and release your sandbags in order to rise above your destructive habits and realize your ultimate happiness.
Embrace what life has to offer and discover who you really are.

Review

"The book in your hands is much more than a practical life handbook . . . it is a mirror, a translation guide for your inner psyche, and most of all a reminder that you have everything you need within you to "unstuck" yourself and live the life you've wanted. In The Art of Becoming Unstuck, Arda Ozdemir adeptly coaches you through the mired waters of life using his POWER Method, offering freedom from life's triggers and repeating patterns. As much as "owning your emotions" is popular advice these days, there has been very little information on how to actually do that. Well, that information is here, for your eyes to read and mind to decipher and heart to embrace." -Gina Serraiocco, MD, Integrative Medicine
"The Art of Becoming Unstuck is the owner's manual we all should have received as children. This is a beautifully written and masterful guidebook that eloquently provides us with simple, elegant, and powerful tools for navigating and responding to even our most difficult emotions and thoughts. A must read!" -Richard Miller, Ph.D., Founder of iRest Institute and author of The iRest Program for Healing PTSD

"I see The Art of Becoming Unstuck not only as life changing but as shifting lineages, cultures, and social structures. In this time, there is a need for people who are grounded in something real, and the POWER Method is very real. It cuts to the core of what ails you, and does it fast. Transformation can be a beautiful and raw dance that dissolves what binds you and gently allows your powerful essence to emerge without a filter." -Dionne D.

"I'm so grateful to have learned the Rise 2 Realize POWER Method when I was seeking help for my anger issues. The techniques described in The Art of Becoming Unstuck made me more conscious of my emotions. I'm amazed by the emotional balance and deeper understanding the Method has brought into my life." -Namita N.

"I've been to countless counselors and therapists to try and deal with lingering issues. And yet . . . they kept lingering. Why? Because we keep repeating patterns over and over again. Applying the Rise 2 Realize POWER Method helped me address my patterns that were hurting me. Over time, faster than I thought, I got to a place where I could clearly see, without fear, how I could move forward and take action for a better life." -Tara C.W.

"The Rise 2 Realize POWER Method helped me quickly identify and neutralize the things that were making me feel stressed and stuck. I was able to quickly learn to stay grounded and focused and feel more kindness and compassion for myself. As a result, I lost twenty pounds and now bring more energy and joy to my relationships." -Amy S.

Changed my life.
I really wish that my comprehension of the English was adequate enough to give this book the justice it deserves. It has done so much for me, and for the people around me. Arda dives into the deepest parts of the human subconscious, and teaches us to understand why we do what we do, why we feel stuck, and how to break free from our repetitive and limiting life patterns.Do you ever feel stuck? Like things keep coming at you, and you have no control? The same misfortunes, pains, and triggers keep happening? Well I have plenty. But this book has helped me identify and address these issues. Don't get me wrong, it's not an overnight change. But at least Arda teaches us HOW to at least IDENTIFY these things, become aware, and practice doing things differently.He teaches us the "POWER" method, which is a step by step methodology that teaches you to recognize your triggers, and change the way you respond, which results you just seeing your life change before your eyes.6/5 stars, I recommend this book to anyone and EVERYONE I know. Thank you, Arda.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elegantly describes the human condition - and how to help overcome life's limitations!
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2024

Very well written, this books very neatly describes the situations that most of us feel each and every day, but do not 1) understand why it happens; 2) even if we do recognize it's happening do not have any method or mechanism to stop these emotionally-driven situations to keep recurring over and over.

More importantly, it provides a clear process and methodology to both understand, dissect, and overcome these emotional situations, leading to a much much happier life that one could ever imagine.

I know it's hard to believe, and it takes many years of practice, but once one arrives there it is as though the biggest burdens we never knew we took upon ourselves were lifted away forever with only our favorite aspects of life left for us to enjoy!

The Art of Becoming Unstuck is a modern manuscript housing the truths and techniques of conscious living and being. It was an easy read that felt instantly relatable and clearly explained why and how our programming causes us to become stuck. And very importantly, it taught the skills and strategies to dodge and parry the obstacles that have come my way. It is a reference guide which I have come back to, again and again, with a permanent home on my coffee table.

Arda: In case you read this, please come out with a hardcover version :)

5.0 out of 5 stars An emotional toolbox
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2024

Unstuck is a powerful method that was a big eye opener to me. Rather than glossing over our very real human experiences and internal conflicts, it provides us with a powerful methodology and concrete tools to embrace a wide range of experiences and challenges all of us face as humans. It is both refreshing and enlightening to read a book that meets us where we are, rather than hammering us with “where we should be” through toxic positivity. By encouraging us to observe “what is” without judgment and to practice trying a new or different route through concrete action, Arda skillfully mastered a powerful toolbox that supports our unique journeys!

5.0 out of 5 stars The book that everyone needs to read
Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2022

I have read many famous books where you are supposed to just let the emotion go through you and not let it affect you. While those books are great, I was not in a place to just get past the triggers and emotions when they lead me to sadness and pain. I was living in a roller coaster of life where something would bother me and I wouldn’t have any understanding of why or where that emotional reaction came from, and after much torment the episode would pass only to reappear in another week. That was not living in peace or happiness.

This book has beautifully helped me to understand myself and my emotions. With the POWER method, the book gave me the tools to decode my own psyche, childhood, and life-long patterns. It helped me understand my patterns better as to where they originated from, what and why some people and things bothered me. And only after exposing those thorns and energy blocks in my body, was I able to loosen their grip and live a more peaceful and a calm flow of life. If you actually follow the book and do the exercises as directed it will also help you to get unstuck of the vicious cycle and free yourself. This book is that missing link that will help you get to the place where triggers don’t get the best of you but actually just pass through your body.

I keep this book on my nightstand and have gifted it to many friends with the goal to raise their awareness and live a more fulfilling life.

5.0 out of 5 stars A powerful blend of pragmatism and inner truth
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2024
Verified Purchase
It is hard work to make sense of the tidal ebb and flow of emotions and relationships. Much of what has been written over centuries seems smart when you read it, but is too esoteric to apply in modern life. Popular self-improvement literature of the last 100 years is at times glib, filled with clever observations and categories, but leading you nowhere -- or worse yet, going in circles, wondering "OK, now what?"

Arda's approach is different. He is pragmatic and thorough, taking a systematic approach to helping you understand who you see when you look in the mirror. There's no magic: rather, he asks very straighforward questions about how you have come to be where you are.

But that's only the beginning: he lays out a clear, logical series of steps to figure out where you want be: to uncover the assumptions you have made about yourself; to look more closely at how your relationships shape the person you have been or want to be; to take a candid look at what sources of pain have put you where you are.

Then, he compassionately leads you to make the decisions you need to do exactly what the book promises: become unstuck.
