About this deal

Na rovinu totiž hovorí, že vžitá predstava o meditácii nemá nič spoločné so skutočným pohrúžením sa do svojho vnútra. His observations are actually frustrating at times as they are so simple that I couldn’t believe I hadn’t considered them before. He works with major global companies such as Google, Accenture and LinkedIn, and has lectured at Oxford University and for the United Nations. Meditation is more than just a stress-reduction tool or a relaxation therapy, it is the key to finding long-lasting happiness. I do think, however, that this book perfectly illustrates how we Westerners desperately need to change our ways.

Within is a guide that is pragmatic and realistic in nature that offers beneficial and satisfying advice about both meditation and mindfulness (not the same thing) that can be brought into our lives in many different ways. Not sure I will listen to / read the whole book again but I will possibly dip in if / when I ever feel inspired to do so, glad I’ve read the book though. Gelong Thubten, a Buddhist monk who has worked with everyone from Silicon Valley entrepreneurs to Ruby Wax and Benedict Cumberbatch, explores the theme of happiness in his debut book and explains how to bring meditation into our busy 21st century lives with simple exercises. It will help you to understand the power of meditation, living in the present, and how this can transform your life.

Unhappiness involves a sense of incompleteness, which arises from desire and seeking happiness outside of ourselves. Another point in GT’s favour is that he acknowledges that meditation can also be harmful if done too much or incorrectly. If you think you're doing it right, I bet you'll be able to pick up at least one useful tip from reading this book. Thubten teaches mindfulness to medical students at the National University of Ireland, and he trained Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton in meditation techniques during the filming of Marvel's Dr.Am descoperit multe lucruri interesante in aceast mic ghid pentru o viata simpla, care nu imi erau cunoscute sau de care nu m-am lovit ca sa am nevoie de ele.

Thubten showed me how simple it is to bring meditation into my life, clearing up the many misunderstandings and misleading information, and the endless possibilities for peace of mind and happiness that I would otherwise miss out on due to being the uptight worrier that I currently am. Overall a great book for beginners although there's valuable information here and if you read the whole thing I would think almost anyone could benefit from the information. There very few steps and bullet points, which are used to emphasise structure approaching meditation.Allowing us to maintain a more substantial state of happiness and stopping unnecessary surges of adrenaline and cortisol from ruining our life experiences. In A Monk's Guide to Happiness, Thubten teaches us how to meditate, how to be more 'awake' in life, how to train our minds and reprogramme our stress response and how to introduce 'micro moments' of mindfulness into our daily lives. At no point does Thubten compare meditation directly with other activities or denigrate them, but the way he presents the place, benefit and effects of a daily meditation routine makes it clear that this is the only "Master Key" to happiness and lasting change.
