Authentic Living Beyond Ego

These are the best books I have come across about how humans have developed survival personalities (egos); thus, creating false-selves and self-protection mechanisms to avoid feeling intense pain suppressed during childhood. Also, books on authentic living, nonviolent communications, conscious living, coping with suffering, and other related self-help books.
