Learn how to do all the things you do in daily life with mindfulness, not just while “formally” meditating

50 short, simple, and profound meditation practices you can do anytime to cultivate happiness, from world-renowned spiritual teacher Thich Nhat Hanh
 
Whether you’re new to Buddhist teaching or you’re a more experienced practitioner, this quintessential resource of Thich Nhat Hanh’s most essential teachings will show you how to walk, sit, work, eat, and even drive with full awareness.
 
In one accessible and easy-to-use volume, you’ll find many kinds of meditations, including:
 
Daily Practices: walking meditation, taking refuge, telephone meditation
Eating Practices: kitchen meditation, mindful eating, tea meditation
Physical Practices: resting and stopping, deep relaxation, mindful movements
Relationship & Community Practices: deep listening and loving speech, peace treaty, hugging meditation
Extended Practices: touching the earth, lazy day, traveling and returning home
Practices With Children: helping children with anger, the cake in the refrigerator, pebble meditation
The only way to truly develop peace both in oneself and in the world is to learn to live in the present moment instead of the past or the future. Integrating these practices into daily life will allow you to cultivate peace and joy within yourself, leading to freedom from fear, misunderstanding, and suffering.
