    What I love about this new book by Roshi Joan Halifax is ...
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2018*

What I love about this new book by Roshi Joan Halifax is how she reaches out through her beautiful and careful words to the heart of each reader, with "life-giving hands" as she calls the engagement of compassion. You can feel her personally touching you as you read. Wherever you are in your life and work, she's been there and she knows how hard it is to stay on track, to stay energized and loving, to be the best version of a human one can be. I felt her openness to my goodness as well as my shadow self, as if she's rooting for me and all of us to wake up, relax, love, grow and do the good work the world needs us to do. I'll keep this book close--a guidebook for life in our times.

    A beautiful, inspiring book for the broad spectrum of caregivers called to serve others
  

*by J***M on Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2018*

Walking with others on the path of care is what gives me a sense of hope.  But it can also be a tenuous journey on which we come to face our shadow-sides in the thick of what Joan Halifax calls “edge states.”  For the broad spectrum of caregivers we are and need to be: parents, teachers, neighbors, community organizers - voters! - as well as professional social workers, hospital/prison chaplains, counselors, psychotherapists, medical professionals, and social justice advocates, Roshi Halifax provides both philosophical wisdom and practical skillfulness in how we can navigate that path courageously and wholesomely, with both compassion and equanimity in tact.  Maintaining a “soft front and strong back,” we can sustainably nourish ourselves and care for others, without spiraling down into the collapse of empathic distress and caregiver burnout.  Living in a time when our well-being depend on care, I can’t think of a more important perspective to share.  This is a beautifully written and truly inspiring book, and I am so grateful for the support it offers.

    Deeply thoughtful, beautifully written. Buy this book.
  

*by R***M on Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2018*

I read a lot of books, always in search of motivation or some new nugget to help process my own thinking/feeling and the world around me. So many books on EQ, enlightenment, self help, etc. speak to us almost as children in need of a lecture - or almost presents life and emotions as a game that needs to be won. This book is so thoughtful, beautiful, easy to read, easy to understand and integrate...it is so smart! And yet, reading this book is like sitting with a trusted, enlightened friend who speaks as if we are all equals, students on a journey. Roshi Joan Halifax is so thoughtful and grounded; she is clearly very far along in her journey, but never-ever makes us feel that we're behind. So refreshing. Regardless of what brought you here to consider this book, buy/read this book. This is easily the best book I've read in a very long time.  Highly recommend. Safe travels.
