The Fear Book Facing Fear Once and for All

Shallow breath. Pounding heart. Tight stomach. Sweaty palms. 

We are conditioned to believe these sensations mean there’s something wrong, something to avoid, something to get away from.

The fear of fear shrinks our world. We will do anything to avoid the discomfort of fear, even though we have never examined what the experience actually is. By turning attention to the experience of fear, fear becomes the hunted, not the hunter. What if these sensations don’t mean there’s something wrong? What if they’re a signal we’re on the right track? 

This book is a compassionate, practical, step-by-step guide to examining fear and going beyond it to reclaim our lives. 

This revised edition, written by Zen teacher Cheri Huber with Ashwini Narayanan, includes instruction and exercises in Recording and Listening, a powerful practice for facing fear with compassion.
