That Scare You We always have a choice, Pema Chödrön teaches: We can let the circumstances of our lives harden us and make us increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us and make us kinder. Pema’s previous works provided the inspiration and guidance to confront the problems and difficulties that life throws our way. Here she provides the specific tools to deal with them—to cultivate the awakened, compassionate ability to open our hearts and minds to our own suffering and that of others. This wisdom is always available to us, Pema teaches, but we usually block it with habitual patterns rooted in fear. Beyond that fear lies a state of openheartedness and tenderness. $21.86 (save 27%)

| The
Present Moment As a humble Buddhist monk in 1966,Thich Nhat Hanh was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King,Jr. Since that time,he has developed a special way of teaching the dharma (essential Buddhist truths) in the West - a way that addresses the spiritual challenges unique to our day,while honoring all faiths. The seeds of internal and external peace are already inside you,he teaches. You need only learn to contact and nurture them. This is the path to transcending fear and anger; this is the path to a more peaceful world. You will learn a treasury of detailed meditations to help you walk,breathe,communicate - even cope with traffic - more deeply and consciously. The Present Moment is a rare opportunity to learn ancient Buddhist practices directly from a living master of the tradition - practices that are life-changing today,just as they were thousands of years ago. Over seven hours of direct instruction from this living master of Buddhist meditation techniques. 7.5 hours,6 page study guide. $44.07 (save 37%)
