Narrado por: Gelong Thubten

From the author of the Sunday Times bestseller A Monk's Guide to Happiness, this audiobook aims to help listeners discover a creative, transformative approach to dealing with life's challenges and difficulties.

We all go through hard times. We can experience moments when life feels like an uphill struggle, leading to unhappiness and stress. Perhaps we are feeling sad, anxious, or struggling to deal with something bigger, such as a bereavement, a loss, a painful ending or a broken heart. It is during these challenging times that we could do with some help with our thoughts and feelings.

In HANDBOOK FOR HARD TIMES The Sunday Times bestseller Gelong Thubten will guide us to understand that happiness, kindness and resilience can be cultivated through embracing life's difficulties as opportunities for transformation. Meditation and mindfulness practices help us to access deep reserves of inner strength as we learn how to 'lean into' our suffering. Thubten suggests how we can find meaning in pain and discomfort, transforming deeply ingrained patterns of fear and resistance.

As we discover how hard times can enhance the development of mindfulness, compassion and forgiveness, we can develop a fearless outlook on life and lasting, unshakeable happiness.

This approachable and practical audiobook is designed for modern times, and will be a valuable resource to anyone during times of struggle, but also during all times to encourage and build resilience and help us find inner contentment and peace.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Thubten is a very generous and kind monk who writes with the lived honesty and humour of someone who has experienced the wisdom he shares. His writing is full of inspiration but also the pragmatism needed to form a sustainable practice. He clearly illustrates why we all need meditation and mindfulness in our lives." (Benedict Cumberbatch)

meditation should be easy

Excellent book, teachings of compassion and freedom from suffering through meditations. I love how the author made it so easy, I never heard this approach to meditation before.

Steps for those in pain

must be listened to multiple times, of course the real work is in the practice

Useful and Easy to Apply

I found the material to be very insightful and useful. I was able to apply it immediately and refer back to it often. I have learned to handle grief a little lighter after listening to this book and the meditations a few times.
