Anger - Buddhist Wisdom for Cooling the Flames
Thich Nhat Hanh is the subject of the upcoming major documentary Walk With Me narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch
'Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity' Martin Luther King, Jr, in Nobel Peace Prize nomination
It was under the bodhi tree in India 2500 years ago that Buddha achieved the insight that three states of mind were the source of all our unhappiness: ignorance, obsessive desire and anger. All are equally difficult to control but, in one instant of anger, lives can be ruined, and our spiritual development can be destroyed. Twenty-five centuries after the Buddha's insight, medical science tells us that the Buddha was right: anger can also ruin our health. It is one of the most powerful emotions and one of the most difficult to change. Thich Nhat Hanh offers a fresh perspective on taking care of our anger as we would take care of a baby crying - picking it up, talking quietly to it, probing for what is making the baby cry. Laced with stories and techniques, Anger offers a wise and loving look at transforming this difficult emotion into peace and for bringing harmony and healing to all the areas and relationships in our lives that have been affected by anger.
Fear: Essential Wisdom for Getting Through The Storm
'Thich Nhat Hanh does not merely teach peace; Thich Nhat Hanh is peace' Elizabeth Gilbert
When we're not held in the grip of fear, we can truly embrace the gifts of life.
Learn how to overcome the worries, insecurities and fears that hold you back in this perspective-shifting book. Drawing on his years of experience as a celebrated Zen master, Thich Nhat Hanh shows that by mastering the practices of mindfulness you can learn to identify the sources of pain that cause fear and move past them to live a mindful and happy life.

Seeds of Hope: Wisdom and Wonder from the World of
In her wise and elegant new book, Jane Goodall blends her experience in nature with her enthusiasm for botany to give readers a deeper understanding of the world around us. Long before her work with chimpanzees, Goodall's passion for the natural world sprouted in the backyard of her childhood home in England, where she climbed her beech tree and made elderberry wine with her grandmother. The garden her family began then, she continues to enjoy today. SEEDS OF HOPE takes us from England to Goodall's home-away-from-home in Africa, deep inside the Gombe forest, where she and the chimpanzees are enchanted by the fig and plum trees they encounter. She introduces us to botanists around the world, as well as places where hope for plants can be found, such as The Millennium Seed Bank, where one billion seeds are preserved. She shows us the secret world of plants with all their mysteries and potential for healing our bodies as well as Planet Earth. Looking at the world as an adventurer, scientist, and devotee of sustainable foods and gardening-and setting forth simple goals we can all take to protect the plants around us-Jane Goodall delivers an enlightening story of the wonders we can find in our own backyards.

Pokojný dych, pokojná myseľ
V priebehu tisícročí sa v mnohých východných tradíciách vyvinuli praktiky, ktoré využívajú silnú uzdravujúcu energiu dychu na liečbu fyzických, emocionálnych a duševných problémov. V čínštine sa táto energia nazýva čchi, v sanskrte prána a v tibetčine lung.
Lung je životodarná energia, ktorá sa pohybuje naším telom. Nedostatok alebo nerovnováha tejto energie môže spôsobiť choroby tela a mysle alebo emocionálne problémy, ako zmätok, hnev a smútok. Geše YongDong Losar, učenec a mních starobylej tibetskej tradície bön, nám vo svojej knihe ponúka overené praktiky, ktoré nám pomôžu vyrovnať lung energiu. Vďaka bohatým vedomostiam, ktoré získal počas rokov štúdia a praxe, sú tieto praktiky jednoduché a vytvárajú ľahkú cestu k väčšiemu pokoju, sile a jasnosti mysle.

Tibetský buddhizmus: Filozofia a prax
Na rozdiel od bádania a rozvoja vedy a techniky vo vonkajšom svete, sa mnohé východné tradície zamerali na vnútro človeka, aby hľadali zmysel jeho pozemskej existencie. Kniha Tibetský buddhizmus odhaľuje čitateľovi celkom odlišnú kultúru, než v akej žije dnešný moderný človek.
Jeho Svätosť dalajláma vo svojej prednáške, ktorú predniesol počas troch dní v Londýne, podáva čitateľom stručný a hlboký výklad tibetského buddhizmu, a zároveň odhaľuje cestu, ako aplikovať teóriu v praxi. Nových záujemcov oboznamuje aj s bohatou tradíciou a rozmanitosťou smerov tohto učenia. Tí pokročilejší si prehĺbia svoje vedomosti o vyšších stupňoch poznania spojených s rôznymi rituálmi zasvätenia a splnomocnenia.
Po prečítaní tejto knihy, ktorá vás očarí pútavým výkladom a priateľským prístupom Jeho Svätosti, sa možno aj vy začnete inak pozerať na náš svet a naše hodnoty.

Spare
It was one of the most searing images of the twentieth century: two young boys, two princes, walking behind their mother's coffin as the world watched in sorrow - and horror. As Diana, Princess of Wales, was laid to rest, billions wondered what the princes must be thinking and feeling - and how their lives would play out from that point on.
For Harry, this is that story at last.
With its raw, unflinching honesty, Spare is a landmark publication full of insight, revelation, self-examination, and hard-won wisdom about the eternal power of love over grief.
Malá kniha stoicizmu
Nadčasové poznanie, ako získať odolnosť. sebadôveru a pokoj
„Ako dlho budete čakať, než zo seba dostanete to najlepšie?“ (Epiktétos, filozof stoicizmu)
Kde nájsť radosť? Získať silu? Ako čeliť svojmu strachu a ťažkostiam? Ako sa vyrovnať so smrťou milovaného? A čo tie stále sa opakujúce depresívne myšlienky?
Nech už prechádzate akoukoľvek namáhavou životnou etapou, stoici vám poradia, ako sa efektívnejšie vyrovnať so všetkým, čo vám život prinesie a ako žiť podľa svojich najlepších predstáv. I napriek starobylosti tejto filozofie pôsobí jej múdrosť prekvapivo moderne a sviežo a jej hodnota pri hľadaní šťastného a zmysluplného života je nepopierateľná.
V knihe nájdete osvedčené spôsoby, ako vystúpiť z emocionálnej horskej dráhy, znížiť negatívne emócie a zostať pokojný. Ako žiť podľa súboru overených hodnôt a rozvíjať pozitívne vlastnosti, akými sú odvaha, trpezlivosť, sebadisciplína, vytrvalosť a duševná sila. Ale nájdete v nej aj praktické stratégie, ako zlepšiť svoje momentálne vedomie a lepšie zvládať seba a svoje konanie v tomto chaotickom svete. Pretože jadrom tejto praktickej filozofie je viesť šťastný život aj (a najmä) tvárou v tvár nepriazni osudu.
