<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Offers advice on uncovering inner wisdom and opening one's heart while refusing to allow resentfulness and fear to block one's inner light.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Beloved Buddhist teacher Pema Chödrön offers guidance for coping with the difficult moments in our lives--showing us how they can soften our hearts and open us to greater kindness</b> <p/> We always have a choice in how we react to the circumstances of our lives. We can let them harden us and make us increasingly resentful and afraid, or we can let them soften us and allow our inherent human kindness to shine through. <p/>In <i>The Places That Scare You</i>, Pema Chödrön provides essential tools for dealing with the many difficulties that life throws our way, teaching us how to awaken our basic human goodness and connect deeply with others--to accept ourselves and everything around us complete with faults and imperfections. Drawing from the core teachings of Buddhism, she shows the strength that comes from staying in touch with what's happening in our lives right now and helps us unmask the ways in which our egos cause us to resist life as it is. If we go to the places that scare us, Pema suggests, we just might find the boundless life we've always dreamed of.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>So beautifully written that the reading is a pleasure. . . .
