Taming the Tiger Within: Meditations on Transforming Difficult Emotions

One of the most loving,kindness and compassionate books I have read in years,a must if you would like to know about the negativity and how to move beyond it.

This book reiterates in a different and more pithy format--one major idea on each page presented in a centered paragraph--the same ideas that were presented in his other book "Anger, Wisdom for Cooling the Flames." A very good book for getting anger under control using basic Buddhist philosophy, which is the practice of what Hanh calls Mindfulness, which means being present, aware and living in present time. I highly recommend this book for quick-tempered people, who wish they had their temper more under control. http://gaylealstrom.blogspot.com

simply said whenever i am wrestling with a difficult energy or emotion i read a passage or two from this book and the intense energy i feel is relieved and i become to feel more at peace once again

I find that Thich Nhat Hanh is one of the greatest gifts to humankind. His words are simple however touch the core of your heart. I highly recommend all of his writings, very much worth the read.
