What Readers are Saying...
An elegant and straightforward exposition of Buddhist teachings and the path to embody them.
—Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Buddha’s teachings are presented here in a warm, accessible, and deeply wise simplicity, which reflect the fruit of the author’s years of personal practice. The teachings of mindfulness and meditation can often be presented cerebrally, and may seem a bit overwhelming or intimidating to beginners, but not here. Robert Beatty’s well-seasoned heart distills not just the essence of the teachings, but also a way to approach the practice which eliminates striving for particular concentration or meditation states that commonly set practitioners up for disappointment or a sense of frustration or failure. — JRL
This book is infused with Robert’s personal experiences as a human being, a therapist, and a Dharma teacher in a practical and understandable way. Robert’s many years of practice and teaching, his willingness to tell his own story in a way that allows us to explore our own experiences, and his unique approach through music, sitting, movement, talks, teaching, and supporting were ideal ways to pass on this practice to us.
—Jean Crowder, former Member of Parliament for the Canadian Government
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ When Robert's book became available, I hesitated and wondered if I really needed another book on Mindfulness. After all, I had quite a large library already. I sent a sample to my kindle and as soon as I read it, I realized that this was not like any other book I owned. I needed to get it. Once it arrived, I couldn't put it down.
— Joan Sher
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you read the first five pages you will be engaged in language so clearly and smoothly presented you could almost miss what is happening as you read, until Robert brings it to your attention and into awareness. Finish that first chapter and you’ll already have received your monies worth, the rest of the book is gravy.
