Reprint. Originally published 2006 with title Practicing peace in times of war.
Practicing peace -- The courage to wait -- Not biting the hook -- Changing our attitude toward pain -- Compassionate abiding -- Positive insecurity.
"Anger is a universal human emotion, and it can manifest in some pretty nasty ways. But it is also amazingly workable. In this guide to the practice of inner peace, Pema Chödrön shows us how to recognize anger in ourselves when it first begins to rise, how to sit with the discomfort it causes, and how to let it dissipate. By taking responsibility for the seeds of aggression in our own hearts and minds, we can help create a new culture of compassion for ourselves and for the world." -- Provided by publisher.
