This is a guide to negotiating adversity with strength and compassion from best-selling author Mark Nepo. He helps readers navigate life’s challenges by transforming their experiences into opportunities for deepening and renewal.

We can choose between surviving and thriving, managing risk and enhancing it, opening and closing, giving and receiving, and living a balance between solitude and community. We can choose to enlarge our sense of things when pain and fear make us small. We can delight in the practice of course-correcting and tuning as we go. This book introduces readers to their gifts and wisdom, helping them explore the perennial practices and choice-points we all face.
