Description About the author Contents
 
The key to release from suffering lies in paying closer attention to it, according to Darlene Cohen - even forms of suffering as challenging as arthritis, depression, or chronic illness. Paradoxically, when we keep our pain at bay, we keep pleasure at bay, too. The two are interdependent, and our ability to experience each is totally dependent on our understanding of the other. "Enrich your life exponentially", she advises. "If your pain is one of ten things you are aware of, then it constitutes a tenth of your total awareness. Expand your awareness to a hundred things, however, and your pain is only a hundredth of your awareness". With stories, exercises, and an awareness born of long Zen practice, Cohen shows us how we can lead a satisfying - and even joyful - life in the midst of pain.
