What if moments of great difficulty are, in fact, opportunities for growth and self-discovery? What if they can serve as stepping stones to greater things in life?

Modern life doesn’t always go our way. Loss, rejection, uncertainty and loneliness are unavoidable parts of the human experience — but there is solace to be found.

In When Things Don’t Go Your Way, Zen Buddhist teacher Haemin Sunim provides simple but powerful wisdom for navigating life’s challenges. Through his trademark combination of beautiful illustrations, insightful stories, and contemplative aphorisms, Sunim helps us reframe our mindsets and develop emotional agility.

Whether you’re in the midst of a crisis or simply seeking to improve your mental and emotional wellbeing, When Things Don’t Go Your Way is a soothing balm that helps us all find courage and comfort when we need it most.
