How to Thrive in Hard Times: A Buddhist Manual by Stephen Fulder

How to Thrive in Hard Times by Stephen Fulder explores everyday life through Buddhist principles. Fifty short essays consider compassion, joy, non-attachment and liberation alongside practical questions about work, money and aging.

Originally published as What’s Beyond Mindfulness, the book places mindful attention within a wider approach to living. It offers reflection on peace and uncertainty rather than a promise to eliminate anxiety or a stand-alone mindfulness technique.
