Publisher's Synopsis
In this book you'll learn how to live with more integrity, kindness, and, subsequently, more joy by following these lively conversations between Joseph Goldstein, a founder of the modern mindfulness movement, and Gail Stark, a businesswoman and his student and friend of twenty-five years. As they unpack the individual components of integrity-generosity, virtue, renunciation, wisdom, courage, patience, truthfulness, resoluteness, loving kindness, and equanimity-we discover the inherent order to the process: each leads into the next, each supports the one that follows. By focusing deeply on just one component of integrity at a time, in their natural order, our practice becomes easier, less burdened by setbacks. Just as each step on a stairway transports us to a higher elevation, so too will this work steadily lift you to an empowered place of clarity, strength, and commitment.
