This book describes simple and effective daily meditational techniques that can be used to teach ourselves the art of transforming suffering into joy. Thich Nhat Hanh’s practical advice combined with his depth of knowledge of wisdom traditions combine in this very wise and clear masterpiece. Practicing walking meditation, breath control and mindfulness are all very helpful techniques mentioned that can improve daily life and also help with remediating some of the effects of stress and trauma responses. The first couple chapters only take 2 hours to listen to on audiobook but feel free to join us even if you haven’t got around to reading this book.
