Fear: Essential Wisdom for Getting Through the Storm

A beautifully written book that offers practical wisdom/steps to deal with your fears. The first thing I felt was the genuineness of the author - written in simple language, the book immediately gives us a sense of devotion the author has, to really help a person overcome her fear. I started to feel very peaceful, even as I was reading the simple, yet effective and powerful prayers.Here too, "mindfulness" plays a big part and forms the key to Thich Nhat Hanh's writings, his philosophy. Though a quick read, a one time read isn't enough as this 'conversation' will take us through our deepest fears, our most vulnerable self and to properly digest these perspectives ; a few re-reads might be required..

Author addressed how we can take good care of fear without diverting it by doing some other activities. Will get readers engaged totally in the flow state.

I came across the author from one of the podcast and got extremely interested to read more. The concept is breathtaking but what I felt is that the concept was repetitive. Its like reading the same line in different sentence structure. But its extremely simple to understand and valuable knowledge.

I would like to share that im happy with my "USED-LIKE NEW BOOK" cuz it really is and its a money saver. Never hesitate to spend on books. Better go with used ones cuz they are really good

Its an awesome instant healing book.Trust me I have read many CBT bestelling books but just reading this book calms my anxieties and fears when I was in anxiety provoking situaltions.Get the book,its simple but amazing.Truely godsent to me.I was so impressed that on seocnd day itself I ordered this author's bestselling classic guide on meditation.He doesnot preach at all.

This is review is not about the quality of the content - anything by Thich Nhat Hanh is top notch. This is more about the print quality. It doesn't seem like an original Penguin Publication. There's no hologram or any other indicator of authenticity. The quality of pages, cover, the typography is very similar to the pirated books that are sold on Traffic Signals. It will be great if Amazon can avoid giving a platform for third rate sellers to sell pirated products.

Very good read simple, lucid i,mpactful, practical , doable.Recommend reading it for sure it's a journey within oneself !

This books is really awesome and have a deep insight of fear how it emerges and how not to overpower it in your life with great mediatation practice .

Book arrived in standard packaging same as previous orders of books. Delivery time is slightly longer than usual expectations but I have never lost a shipment from bookdepository yet. Only need to manage my own expectations of fear of losing my order.

Another excellent book from Thich Nhat Hanh. This acclaimed author offers the calm wisdom of someone who has been practising Mindfulness for a long time, and who has learned the true benefits of it. His method of teaching is straight forward, and easy to understand. His life experiences add to the authenticity of his teachings, and when reading his books, there is the sense that one is in the presence of a true teacher.In this book, he offers a very tender-hearted way of working with fear, with gentle teachings and firm encouragement. He shows us that fear is something that we need not be afraid of.

One of my favorite books on self discovery and self knowledge.

Very well written, with lots of good advice. You will get to know yourself better as you read the book.

Es un libro sencillo y bello. La lectura es calmada y el mensaje es claro. Todo muy bien resumido y centrado en ofrecer un mensaje de paz al lector. Apetece leer y practicar de manera tranquila, sin prisas. Creo que es una buena manera de iniciarse en algo tan sencillo y complicado como prestar atención a tu respiración.
