Mindfulness Breaks (eBook, ePUB)

Your Path to Awakening

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Mindfulness Breaks reveals the power of your mind to experience inner peace and happiness. It combines the wisdom teachings of the American master, Father Eli with those of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh.

This book is the result of more than forty years of hard work and study with Father Eli and Thich Nhat Hanh. One day in 2017, I came upon my notes from the two summers I spent on retreat with Father Eli in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas in 1973 and 1974. It was only after I began transcribing my hand written notes that I realized the teachings of Father Eli resonated fully with those of Thich Nhat Hanh.

After World War II, Father Eli spent 15 years in Japan studying with D. T. Suzuki, the man who introduced Zen into the West. He passed away in 1983.

This book contains scripts to guide you into the process of taking a Mindfulness Break instead of or in addition to a coffee break, a lunch break, or a cigarette break. This is your path to wakening!
