Peaceful Mind, Awakened Life offers a direct, accessible, and practical introduction to the basic concepts of mindfulness and the value of incorporating them into one’s daily life.

The author’s philosophy is presented in a genuinely relatable way, which listeners will find both comforting and inspiring. The book provides a thorough and detailed guide for handling life’s difficult moments, including a new take on the established TRAIN practice.

The step-by-step practice set forth in this self-help book feels natural, intuitive, and unintimidating. Listeners build confidence in their ability to free their minds through easy-to-follow exercises that become progressively more advanced.

Beyond exploring technique, however, listeners will learn how the mind, heart, and body experience stress and how each step helps one find relief.

Personal anecdotes from the author and other TRAIN practitioners illustrate the real-life impact and transformational experiences that may be found with the practice. Ultimately, this gentle and personal guide to self-understanding and empowerment makes the goals set forth feel very achievable and immensely valuable to improving our everyday quality of life.

This concise book will be beneficial for both those new to mindfulness practice and those who want to deepen and expand their practice to achieve greater harmony. Finally, it includes a unique offering called Mahasati mindfulness practice involving rhythmic movement, which may be especially useful for those who find it challenging to keep the body still in meditation.
