Buddhist Practices for Healing Trauma - Tim Desmond

Popis produktu

While many mental health books draw on secular mindfulness, Buddhist Practices for Healing Trauma offers something deeper: a comprehensive healing path grounded in the full breadth of Buddhist wisdom. Drawing from ancient sutras, traditional metaphors, and modern psychology, Tim Desmond—a psychotherapist and longtime student of Thich Nhat Hanh—guides readers through a journey of strengthening, acceptance and transformation. Each short chapter offers a concrete practice, from visualising your five–year–old self to embracing suffering as compost for growth. Interwoven with teachings on non–self, the Discourse on Happiness and the transformational power of loving–awareness, this book goes beyond symptom relief to support deep spiritual and emotional healing. Gentle, profound and accessible, this is not just a guide to feeling better—it’s a path towards liberation. For readers seeking trauma recovery through Buddhist practice—not just Buddhist–flavoured therapy—this book offers a rare and authentic resource.
