Inhaltsangabe

"I've tried mindfulness and it didn't work for me."
"I just cannot get my brain to shut down."
"Who has time to meditate?"
"I wish everyone would stop telling me to calm down!"

If you have ever said one of these lines, you are not alone!

Meditation guide and mindfulness guru, Nicholas Stein, was a hard-charging reality TV producer for over forty-years, and when that career almost ended his marriage, and his life, he knew something had to change. It was then that he began his mindfulness journey, going from novice meditator to professional teacher, and he shares that knowledge with you.

Mindfulness is within your reach!

Developing a consistent meditation practice is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself and everyone you love.

Using this book as your guide, you will learn:

• How to carve out the time and space you need for a daily dose of stillness
• To use breath, touch, sight, smell or sound to drop into easy meditations that anyone can do
• Why the simple verb "to sit" can release you from stress and emotional strife
• The value of daily meditation, and how little time it can take
• Techniques that will help you find the practice that works best for your circumstances, and most importantly.
• How to stop judging yourself for the way your mind naturally behaves!

This book is your first step in a journey towards peace, equanimity and having greater control over your thoughts, emotions, reactions and fears.

It shares compelling stories of healing and resiliency unlike any you’ve heard before.

Starting inside a Blackhawk helicopter over the deserts of New Mexico, it takes you from the frontlines of the US/Mexico border to the corporate offices of National Geographic to the cell blocks of the Los Angeles County Men’s Jail, all while sharing the anecdotes and insightful teachings that will show you how to tame your "monkey mind" and find the stillness you've been seeking all along.
