" I agree with most of the thing I found in this book. This sounds very simply and very spiritual, and it motivated me to keep reading and made my mind peaceful ! "

" This is a very easy introduction to Buddhist thinking. She gives down to earth examples and admits to her own human 'weaknesses.' I've found that the ideas are presented so simply, they slide right into some of my thinking and are implemented. "

" In depth, not at all. Interesting insights and new ways to see basic Buddhist concepts, definitely. Still really enjoy Boorstein's voice. Her willingness to admit to still learning and practice is helpful and hopeful. "

" I read this book for a now defunct reading group. Boorstein is anything but sanctimonious--she writes about a serious topic with a light touch. "

" I liked the way things were presented - it was not presumptuous and the author did not speak down to the reader. It presented Buddhist tenants in a very accessible way, more as gentle reminders than as strict rules, which I feel is in line with the whole thing. "

" A phenominal primer on the beauty of freeing your mind from itself and finding or creating peace in your life. No, you don't have to be Buddhist to enjoy this, or even to benefit from Boorstein's teachings. "

" very quick to read, upbeat. "

" This will keep you grounded. Great resource, fun to rad...like a warm, comfy blanket. Wise, supportive and compassionate friend to have at your bedside. "

" Easy, thoughtful and entertaining book. I have to read it again. "
