Wherever You Go, There You Are (Abridged): Mindfulness Meditation in Everyday Life Audiobook

" This is a fantastic book. Easy to read and understand for people newly interested in meditation and the short sections make it a great book to pick up for 5 or 10 minutes at a time. Highly recommend this one. I borrowed it from the library but I'm going to buy a copy for the bookshelf. "

" Pick it up, flip through, and find a section that appeals to you. Buddhist philosophy is one idea taught thousands of different ways and this book can help you come back to where you are. Incidentally, I've heard his son speak and did not connect too well to him. "

" we'll see...the author was recommended to me "

" Solid book, but not great if you're looking for a how to or a concrete place to start. "

" This is a book that I will return to often. It's not a one time read for me! Beautiful, inspiring, calming, insightful! "

" Really enjoyed this book. The author writes inspiring short chapters about mindfulness, meditation, patience, anger....all very helpful. Will definitely read again and again. Highly recommend this for anyone who is interested in zen and/or meditation. "

" I find it best to read this book in slow, chapter-sized chunks, taking in the placement of words and the ideologies that this book presents. Absolutely beautiful, soothing, and thought-provoking. "

" really hard to read ,too much to take in at one time. "

" One of the best books I have read on meditation. "

" What is all the fuss about? "

" Has some good tips on practice. Not for the person who wants a spiritual lesson. At the same time points out that one does not have to be religious/spiritual to get benefits from mindfulness and meditation. "

" Truly inspiring down to earth examination of mindfullness. Worth reading and rereading. "

" Opened me up to meditation...I still reference this book today. "

" For anyone who is interested in learning how to meditate and to be mindful in daily life, but is a novice, this is the book for you. The author writes for the layman...and he provides exercises to help the reader along. This is a book I'll keep on re-reading! "

" A simple, readable guide to mindfulness and meditation with a lot of heart. "

" recommended by a friend. it really helps "

" worth a second read through. "

" This is not a book to read straight through in an urge to finish and move on to the next book. Rather, read it like a book of poetry: take the time to reflect between each poem. Enjoy it, slowly. "

" One of the most important books I think I've ever read. "

" As we are often encouraged to ponder and meditate I appreciated the practice of visualization of this book. I enjoyed the prospects of being able to put thoughts in perspective and being able to be mindful of meaningful things with more clarity. "

" What a wonderful practice to add to the calm of everyday life. "

" I wanted to learn more about meditation, but this book basically scolded me for being busy. I know life balance isn't my strong suit, but I also didn't read anything here that made me want to try to use his techniques to effect change in my life. "
