Feeding Your Demons by Tsultrim Allione

New paperback edition. Based on the Chod, or Cutting Through Ego Clinging, teachings of the Tibetan yogini Machig Lapdron, this book presents these ancient practices to the modern Western world - an accessible and effective approach for dealing with negative emotions, fears, illnesses, and self-defeating patterns. Allione, author of Women of Wisdom, explains that if we fight our demons they only grow stronger - but if we feed them, nurture them, we can free ourselves from the battle. Through the practice outlined in Feeding Your Demons, we can learn to overcome any obstacle and achieve freedom and inner peace.

"Feeding Your Demons offers an original and powerful approach to challenging the forces at work in the shadows of our psyche. Tsultrim Allione has done a masterful job of translating ancient - and fascinating - methods to heal modern emotional troubles." Daniel Goleman.

"Offers us a powerful and transformative practice…one that can heal the deepest wounds and reveal profound spiritual truths. What is so striking is how, through her own tremendous clarity and heart, Allione brings this practice alive and renders it truly accessible." Tara Brach.

"Tsultrim Allione has performed a remarkable feat of cultural translation and offered the Western world a new treasure. With exquisite detail and accuracy she shows us how we can transform the energy of addiction, shame, illness, anxiety, fear and anger into the energy of liberation." Jack Kornfield.
