About this listen
In When Therapy Doesn’t Work: A Mindfulness Guide to Emotional Repair, meditation teacher Shinzen Young and psychotherapist Shelly Young apply the principles of Unified Mindfulness to emotional healing and transformation. Drawn from tried-and-tested therapeutic practices, this book is filled with easy-to-follow techniques to successfully overcome trauma, anxiety, addictions, panic, compulsive behavior and a variety of other mental health challenges.
This is the first book to offer Shinzen Young’s revolutionary Unified Mindfulness as a self-help tool for listeners who are suffering from trauma, addictions, and anxiety but have struggled to engage with traditional forms of therapy. Not only are these techniques unique, they are also uniquely effective, with the power to combat harmful mental, emotional and behavioral patterns and help listeners find freedom within.
Whether you are struggling with your own mental health, trying to help a loved one, or looking to expand your practice as a healing professional, this book contains the tools you need to escape old stories, unwind suffering and rediscover joy in the everyday.

Story
First published in 1980, Existential Psychotherapy is widely considered to be the foundational text in its field—the first to offer a methodology for helping patients to develop more adaptive responses to life’s core existential dilemmas. In this seminal work, American psychiatrist Irvin Yalom finds the essence of existential psychotherapy and gives it a coherent structure, synthesizing its historical background, core tenets, and usefulness to the practice.

Story
Reverse Meditation is for anyone who wants to bring the challenges of life onto the path of awakening. When things get hard, it’s time to turn your practice on its head—and throw out any assumption that meditation exists to insulate you from the confusion, difficulties, and uncertainty of life. “By putting your meditation into reverse,” Holecek teaches, “you’ll actually find yourself going forward. Step into your pain and you can step up your evolution.”

Story
Treasured by Buddhists of all traditions, The Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhicharyavatara) is a guide to cultivating the mind of enlightenment and to generating the qualities of love, compassion, generosity, and patience. This text has been studied, practiced, and expounded upon in an unbroken tradition for centuries, first in India, and later in Tibet. Presented in the form of a personal meditation in verse, it outlines the path of the Bodhisattvas - those who renounce the peace of individual enlightenment and vow to work for the liberation of all beings.

Story
The thinking mind is a powerful ally, but it also creates emotional drama, confusion, and limiting beliefs about who we are. Here, Shinzen Young beings his special expertise in vipassana (insight meditation) to help you learn one of its most subtle yet rewarding skills: the ability to observe in "real time" the thoughts that shape your deepest perceptions, feelings, memories, and beliefs.

Story
The jhānas are eight progressive altered states of consciousness that can be identified with the aspect of the Buddha’s Eightfold Path called Right Concentration. Training in concentration leads to these states, each of which yields a deeper and subtler state of awareness than the previous one. The jhānas are not in themselves awakening, but they are a skillful means for stilling the mind in a way that leads in that direction, and they are attainable by anyone who devotes the time and sincerity of practice necessary to realize them.

Story
'Reason and imagination and all mental chatter died down... I forgot my name, my humanness, my thingness, all that could be called me or mine. Past and future dropped away... Lighter than air, clearer than glass, altogether released from myself, I was nowhere around.' Thus Douglas Harding describes his first experience of headlessness, or no self. First published in 1961, this is a classic work which conveys the experience that mystics of all times have tried to put words to.

Story
In 1957, four years before his death, Carl Gustav Jung, psychiatrist and psychologist, began writing his life story. But what started as an exercise in autobiography soon morphed into an altogether more profound undertaking. The result is an absorbing piece of self-analysis: a frank statement of faith, philosophy, and principles from one of the great explorers of the human mind.
