Before you can help others, Thich Nhat Hanh teaches, you must first bring peace and a deep love of life into your own consciousness. On this breakthrough workshop especially for psychotherapists, Thich Nhat Hanh explores how to find and nourish an inner peacefulness, and maintain it through the day no matter what your caseload is.

"Mindfulness and Psychotherapy" includes an illuminating discussion about how to work with anger, in which Thich Nhat Hanh recommends breathing and walking meditation as more beneficial in many situations than directly expressing anger.
