Publisher's Synopsis

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

Full of anecdotes, relatable quotes and beautiful illustrations, this little book makes a wonderful read and thoughtful gift!


'Is it the world that's busy, or my mind?'

*****

Life moves fast, but that doesn't mean we have to.

In this timely guide to mindfulness, Haemin Sunim, a Buddhist monk born in Korea and educated in the United States, offers advice on everything from handling setbacks to dealing with rest and relationships.

Combining his teachings with calming full-colour illustrations, Haemin Sunim's simple messages speak directly to the anxieties that have become part of modern life and remind us of the strength and joy that come from slowing down.

'Everyone who wants to thrive more in their life should have it on their nightstand' Arianna Huffington

'Offers practical advice on everything from handling setbacks to relationships. Best for reclaiming your zen' Stylist
