This book's gently matter-of-fact tone and careful language introduces the reader to practices for being awake in one's breath, in one's senses. I like that it is written in brief passages, kind of like a daybook, so you can attentively absorb reflections and practices of being - rather than forcing, doing, and striving. #mindfulness #moments #presence #breathe
For one's bedside, to consult often. A beautiful love letter about mindfulness, peace, and presence - this edition also includes a compendium of "Exercises in Mindfulness," several pages of Buddhist Sutras ("threads" or "scriptures"), and a chronology of Thich Nhat Hanh's life. #mindfulness #peace #presence #breath #thichnhathanh #Buddistsutras
