Zen in the Age of Anxiety

Praise for Zen in the Age of Anxiety:

"This is a book imbued with love and wisdom, full of passages of fluid prose, woven in with carefully chosen Zen stories, poetry, and relevant research findings. It includes clear explanations of the power of diligent meditation practice to transform our various human difficulties into clear seeing, equanimity, and ease, followed by practical exercises about how to go about this work. This is a book about the substance and beauty of Zen practice, a book I will happily read and recommend to my own students."--Jan Chozen Bays, author of Mindful Eating and How to Train a Wild Elephant

"I gained so much from reading Tim's book, especially about how to hold and handle my own anxieties. Here is an encouraging handbook on how Buddhist values and practices can increase our sense of connectedness and foster inner--and outer--peace. I especially liked Tim's Nine Keys that can open any of us to healing powers in life events and in ourselves too."--David Richo, author of The Five Things We Cannot Change and How to Be an Adult in Relationships

"With an artless simplicity born of deeply integrated and compassionate wisdom, Tim Burkett speaks to the beginner's mind in each one of us."--Cynthia Bourgeault, author of The Heart of Centering Prayer
