The Poisoned Arrow

A Toltec Guide to Overcoming Fear

De: don Miguel Ruiz

Narrado por: Chris Hugan

The poison is fear—this book is the cure.

When the world wounds us with a metaphorical arrow, many of us spend our days chasing unanswerable questions: Why was I hurt? Who is to blame? Will it happen again? Beneath these restless inquiries lies a deeper truth: even though the event is now over, the fear it left behind is like a poison. It courses through our veins—whispering doubts, weaving prisons from old wounds, and painting the world in shades of threat and scarcity.

But there is an antidote.

In this transformative guide to overcoming fear, beloved Toltec teacher don Miguel Ruiz Jr. invites you to remove both the arrow and its poison. Through Toltec wisdom and timeless parable, you will learn to:

• Recognize fear’s hidden influence in your thoughts, words, and choices.

• Break free from fear-based agreements that keep you trapped in anxiety and unhappiness.

• Reclaim your power as the artist of your life, creating a reality rooted in peace and authenticity.

With prose as tender as it is incisive, this book is not a map—it is a mirror. Look closely, and you may find that the antidote was always within you.

The practical application

This was right on time. Thank you for delivering the teachings in such a digestible way.

Powerful resource and a truly transformative read

I first listened to the Poison Arrow as an audiobook and found it so impactful that that I bought the paperback to dive deeper. This book is a powerful resource for unpacking outdated beliefs, fears, and unconscious conditioning. The guided meditations are especially helpful and having the physical copy makes it easier to return to key practices.

Great knowledge to live by.

I’m a huge fan. I have read every book! I am a student and I love learning new things. You must be ready and open minded in order to receive.
This is a great book!

Perfect timing on this book

I love all the wisdom, I will listen again. I'd love to get a part 2 to this book.

Like a warm hug for the soul.
