Mindfulness in Plain English

by Lauri Porceddu, Henepola Gunaratana
Mindfulness in Plain English
Mindfulness in Plain English

Practical guide to starting Insight Meditation.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by the noise of daily life, "Mindfulness in Plain English" might just be your haven of tranquility. Henepola Gunaratana offers a no-nonsense approach to meditation, stripping away the mystical and focusing on the practical. By adding loving-kindness into the mix, this book doesn't just teach you how to meditate; it subtly shifts your perspective towards a more compassionate and mindful way of living. Perfect for beginners and those looking to ground themselves in the present.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
