      Narrator Lee Osorio soothes listeners with a warm and gentle approach to Buddhist teacher Haemin Sunim's guide to overcoming life's struggles. Using a welcoming and intellectual-sounding tone, Osorio supports Sunim's relatability, understanding of challenges, and belief that difficulties should be seen as opportunities. The author's Buddhist mindset of strength and dignity offers a more peaceful way of thinking about disappointments and problems, and establishes an authentic connection with those open to his suggestions. Accepting challenges, finding joy, and surrendering to life's uncertainties are all discussed using Sunim's own experiences and the methods he uses to overcome trials and tribulations. Thought-provoking and honest-sounding, Osorio narrates the Zen monk's message with calmness and sensitivity. D.Z. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine
