Wonderful Thich Nhat Hanh book with everyday mindfulness and meditation practices.
From washing your face, eating breakfast, and brushing your teeth, simple and easy reminders to bring one back to the present moment. I’ve also read this one out loud to Thomas and Lillian.
I greatly enjoy all of Thich Nhat Hanh’s book. Always easy to read. No deep, philosophical points to get lost in. Simple and easy.
… excerpts from the book:
“Waking up this morning, I smile.
Twenty-four brand-new hours are before me.
I vow to live fully each moment
and to look at all beings with eyes of compassion.”
Following the Breath
Breathing in, I calm my body.
Breathing out, I smile.
Dwelling in the present moment,
I know this is a wonderful moment.
