Perfect for you if...

  • You're tired of anxiety running your days and want practical Buddhist tools that actually work, not just theory.
  • You respect contemplative traditions and want to understand fear's roots rather than just manage its symptoms.
  • You're drawn to teachers like the Dalai Lama and want accessible guidance on inner peace from someone Martin Luther King Jr. recognised as a peer.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You want quick fixes or motivational pep talks. Hanh's approach is slow, meditative, and requires patience.
  • You're sceptical of spiritual teachings and prefer purely scientific or cognitive approaches to anxiety.
  • You're looking for a heavy academic text. This is intimate and conversational, not scholarly or densely researched.

About this book

Thich Nhat Hanh, a Vietnamese Buddhist Zen Master, poet, scholar, and peace activist, addresses fear as a destructive and pervasive problem affecting everyone. Nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King Jr., Hanh is recognized by The New York Times as ranking second only to the Dalai Lama in influence among Western Buddhist leaders. This book serves as a practical guide to overcoming debilitating uncertainties and personal terrors. Hanh explores the origins of fear and offers tools and strategies for finding peace and freedom from anxiety. The work presents his teachings in calm, intimate language intended to help readers eradicate fear from their lives.
