How to Be Sick

Your Pocket Companion

Beschreibung

"Transformative practices from the beloved bestseller. In 2001, Toni Bernhard got sick and, to her and her partner's bewilderment, stayed that way. As they faced the confusion, frustration, and despair of a life with sudden limitations-a life that was vastly different from the one they'd thought they'd have together-Toni had to learn how to be sick. In this book, Toni shares the practices she outlined to the reader in her bestselling classic How to Be Sick. Organized by challenge so that the reader can easily find a practice to address their situation and packaged in an easy-to-carry and easy-to-digest format, these are practices that have helped Toni live a life of equanimity, compassion, and joy, despite her many physical and energetic restrictions (and sometimes, because of them)"--

Autor

Toni Bernhard fell ill on a trip to Paris in 2001 with what doctors initially diagnosed as an acute viral infection. She has not recovered. In 1982, she'd received a J.D. from the School of Law at the University of California, Davis, and immediately joined the faculty where she stayed until chronic illness forced her to retire. During her twenty-two years on the faculty, she served for six years as dean of students. In 1992, she began to study and practice Buddhism. Before becoming ill, she attended many meditation retreats and led a meditation group in Davis with her husband. She lives in Davis with her husband, Tony, and their hound dog, Rusty.
