Overview

Where will we look when we are afraid? How do we find strength? In what can we place our trust? According to Tibetan Buddhism, there are four noble aspirations known as “The Four Great Catalysts of Awakening” to cultivate strength and openness in any situation. From Fear to Fearlessness brings us into the company of beloved teacher Pema Chödrön to discover and cultivate these four “immeasurables”—maitri (loving-kindness), compassion, joy, and equanimity. They are our greatest antidote to fear, teaches Ani Pema. By practicing them, we begin to experience a supreme steadfastness and peace independent of conditions. Join the bestselling author of When Things Fall Apart, to learn:

• How self-acceptance overcomes the judging mind
• Using honesty as a conduit to the parts of ourselves that need kindness and love the most
• Maitri: the meditation practice that multiplies love, and more The definition of an enlightened being is one who is completely fearless, teaches Pema Chödrön. With guided meditations, rare heart teachings, and Ani Pema’s trademark humor, here is a timeless path From Fear to Fearlessness.
