A Monk's Guide to Happiness: Meditation in the 21st century

Product Information

i think i only really appreciate the parts where he gave examples of how unhappiness can be fixed (although it’s easier to say than do obviously lol) and the parts where he gives steps to meditate were less enjoyable cause obviously it didn’t feel like reading a book but more a guide, so yeah nevertheless when he talks about emotions it’s very interesting! He works with major global companies such as Google, Accenture and LinkedIn, and has lectured at Oxford University and for the United Nations. The book is filled with short guided meditation practices to ease a learner into becoming a daily meditator. Publication dates are subject to change (although this is an extremely uncommon occurrence overall). First part walks you through the theory behind meditation and also offers plethora of handy advice about the practice itself.

Vzhľadom na žáner a zameranie, prirodzene, nemusí sadnúť každému, no odhliadnuc od meditačných cvičení obsahuje aj mnoho podnetných myšlienok o živote a tomu, do akej miery sami ovplyvňujeme jeho chod. Reading A Monk’s Guide to Happiness could revolutionize your relationship with your thoughts and emotions, and help you create a life of true happiness and contentment. This book is written in a style that is very easy to read and the guide to meditation is perfect for beginners.Focus on the habits that a busy lifestyle can lead us to and how to break those and maintain a positive mindset and outlook. A Monk's Guide to Happiness breaks down meditation and helped me to realise that I had been grasping and attempting to get something back from meditation. There very few steps and bullet points, which are used to emphasise structure approaching meditation.

He ordained as a monk 26 years ago at Samye Ling Tibetan Monastery in Scotland, and he has spent over six years in intensive meditation retreats, the longest of which was 4 years long. Keď u Gelonga došlo k hraničnej situácii a vyhoreniu, hľadal spôsob, ako napraviť svoje chyby a spamätať sa, kým má čas. Not just in the morning, but throughout the day by introducing micro moments so we never drop the mindfulness ball, even when we're busy.

Meditácia teda nie je o stereotypnom vypustení všetkého z našej hlavy, ale skôr o spracúvaní myšlienok či istom zmierení sa s nimi. There are plenty of exercises throughout the book, again though, they aren't anything fancy, but certainly practical in our busy lifestyles.
