  Blessed Relief : What Christians Can Learn From Buddhists About Suffering

  $16.99

  This book takes you on a lively, sometimes light-hearted, journey through nine Buddhist practices that can bring “blessed relief” to a wide range of human suffering-and teaches you skills to reduce suffering in the long term for yourself and others.
  The practices help you:
  *Loosen the grip of suffering
  *Engage and question limiting views, thoughts and opinions
  *Deconstruct ten common assumptions
  *Be present in each moment
  *Survive emotional storms
  *Develop peaceful communication skills
  *Deepen communication with your partner
  *Appreciate mortality and the preciousness of life
  *Cultivate compassion
  As you read the chapters and engage in each practice, you will work with your own stories of suffering-stories in which you have felt abandoned, deprived, subjugated, defective, excluded or vulnerable-and you will learn how to release yourself from suffering by investigating it with curiosity and kindness.
