Fear by Thich Nhat Hanh

Fear by Thich Nhat Hanh

End the constant cycle of stress and anxiety, stop worrying about the future, and start thriving in the present--A moving guide to a more mindful life from bestselling author Thich Nhat Hanh

Most of us live in a constant state of fear--of failure, of our past, of illness and aging, of losing the things we treasure most, and of never discovering our most authentic self. But it doesn't have to be this way, promises renowned Zen master and Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh. Drawing on a lifetime of mindfulness in action, Hanh shows us how to use the practice of living in the present to acknowledge and embrace our fears, recognize their origins, and render them powerless.

By offering mantras, meditations, breathing exercises, and ancient wisdom, Fear guides us through practical exercises for:

·      Transforming crippling uncertainty into clarity

·      Acknowledging and harnessing emotions while relinquishing their control

·      Communicating with compassion and understanding

·      Utilizing the immense power of community during times of struggle and hardship

·      Trusting the spiritual process and reconnecting with our internal guiding light

The worries of the past and the anxiety of the future disappear as we discover the power of the present moment. Restore balance, find lasting happiness, and take control of your own journey by live freely and fearlessly.
