How to Be Sick (Second Edition): A Buddhist-Inspired Guide for the Chronically Ill and Their Caregivers

A brand-new edition of the best-selling classicÂ with added andÂ updated practices.

In 2001, Toni Bernhard got sick and, to her and her partnerâ€™s bewilderment, stayed that way. As they faced the confusion, frustration, and despair of a life with sudden limitationsâ€”a life that was vastly different from the one theyâ€™d thought theyâ€™d have togetherâ€”Toni had to learn how to be sick. In spite of her many physical and energetic restrictions (and sometimes, because of them), Toni learned how to live a life of equanimity, compassion, and joy. This book reminds us that our own inner freedom is limitless, regardless of our external circumstances.

Updated with new insights and practices hard-won from Toniâ€™s own ongoing life experience, this is a must-read for anyone who isâ€”or who might one day beâ€”sick or in pain.
