FEAR: ESSENTIAL WISDOM FOR GETTING THROUGH THE STORM
HANH, THICH NHAT
Renowned zen master and buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh explores the origins of fear and offers detailed
practices on how we can remove its toxic presence from our lives. One of Thich Nhat Hanh’s true gifts is tapping
into the contemporary issues that are troubling people while finding the most useful and transformative ways of
responding to them. Framed by a lifetime of mindfulness in action, Thich Nhat Hanh explores the path to peace,
happiness, and freedom within the context of fear. The wise Buddhist teacher shows how simple practices can
help overcome the deadly grip of our emotional burdens and anxieties. The Nobel Peace Prize nominee reveals
how happiness is not found in suppressing our emotions, but in purposefully living in a meditative and mindful
state. In this way we can identify the source of pain that is responsible for our fear and cut it off from its roots so
that the pain might subside. Without fear and anxiety, we can truly embrace the gifts of life.
