Technology has given us little time to focus on what truly matters—mindfulness. Is there a time in your day that you’re just still, unoccupied by music or television or your phone? It’s about time you step back, reconnect with yourself, and find your inner peace. On that note, there are a couple of books on meditation that will help you achieve the inner peace that you have been looking for all along.
1. Peace Is Every Step: The Path of Mindfulness In Everyday Life by Thich Nhat Hanh
Thich Nhat Hanh manages to interconnect different concepts on deeply resonating levels. For instance, he notes that poverty is based on the wealth of others. With this, he beckons his readers to turn away from being too goal-driven to being a humanitarian. As a Buddhist monk who was exiled in France in 1966, Nhat Hanh’s advice ranges from the practical to the philosophical.
2. The Mindfulness Solution: Everyday Practices for Everyday Problems Dr. Ronald Siegel
From mindfulness expert and therapist Dr. Ronald Siegel, this book is a guide that will give you stunningly simple yet effective tips for everyday chores like driving to work and even washing the dishes. The action plans are not only for the sake of efficiency, but also coping well with the challenges of life.
3. The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment by Eckhart Tolle
We often put delay what we can do now. This is the lesson from this book, and a lesson that no other than acclaimed writer Eckhart Tolle can write well. The reviews are quite positive—find out for yourself why. (View the complete list of mindfulness books here.)
