A handbook for spiritual freedom in an age of global polycrisis, offering a wise and warm path to liberation from stress, pain, and trauma through the doorway of true compassion.

The world is in turmoil because of its trauma. Our unhealed psychological wounds block our innate expressions of wisdom and compassion, setting the stage for ongoing conflict, division, and stress. Our fate, both individual and collective, lies in our capacity to heal-and healing starts with knowing the power, resilience, and essential goodness of our compassionate hearts. In The Dharma of Healing, Justin Michelson walks readers through an ingeniously simple approach to self-healing using the power of compassion. Step-by-step, he shows how compassion, when carefully cultivated, carries the greatest power to heal and transform.

Rooted in the ancient and proven wisdom tradition of Buddhism but written for the modern seeker, The Dharma of Healing is an essential guide for anyone who longs for inner peace in a world that is anything but peaceful. Michelson synergizes psychological and spiritual principles to present a clear path to freedom and provides dozens of guided audio meditations that empower readers to walk the path themselves. Whether you're just starting a healing journey or spiritual practice, or you've been walking the path for decades, this book will meet you right where you are and take you as far as you're ready to go.
