| Summary |
After years of abuse and struggles with addiction, Mason-Johns was mired in anger, resentment, and fear. She needed to learn how to disarm such toxins and find peace. Now she presents a series of meditations that transform anger, hatred, and fear to heal emotional trauma. Based on the Buddhist principles of mindfulness, loving-kindness, and compassion, they provide tools to help us heal our own hurts and to close the gap between heart and mind. |
