This book was written for one simple reason—to help you feel happier, more grounded, and more at peace in your everyday life. Not just on vacation or during meditation retreats, but right in the middle of your daily routine, stress and all.
While buddhism can be a lifelong path of deep study, this book focuses on helping you begin right where you are, with simple practices you can start using today.

Where thoughts really begin
See how thinking starts long before words appear—and why that matters
Why it’s so hard to stay present

The hidden effort behind “trying to be calm”
Learn why control creates more restlessness—and what to do instead
Mindfulness in a real, practical way
Move beyond theory and begin to feel it in your everyday life
If you want to learn how to apply the buddhist philosophy in your everyday life, then this book is for you.
You’ll learn the principles of this philosophy along with the history of buddha and his teachings that will help you successfully bring buddhism into your everyday life.
