| Summary |
In this short and compact first-aid kit for a broken heart, author Lodro Rinzler walks you through the cause and cure of suffering from a Buddhist perspective. The 2,500-year-old teachings of the Buddha are the ultimate antidote for emotional pain.With much practical advice for self-care as you work to survive a breakup. The wisdom he presents applies to any kind of emotional suffering and you don't need to be a Buddhist for them to apply to you. This book provides a practical offering of consolation for someone you know who's going through a tough time, and for yourself when you're looking for the light at the end of the tunnel in your own situation. |
