Whether you're already well versed in the practice of mindfulness or just beginning to explore its treasures, this unassuming little book holds a wealth of information. Distributed through the year, one day at a time, the insight, patience, and direction which Kundtz shares is powerful. --Anna Jedrziewski, Retailing Insight
Learn how to start meditating. Learning how to meditate and how to be mindful is simpler than it looks. The whole purpose of your meditation is to show up as awake and aware as possible to your everyday life. Longtime therapist and meditator David Kundtz gives you permission not to fret about whether you're getting your meditation practice right or not. It's right.
Ponder daily quotes to help you live in this moment. Being Present has one purpose: to give you an opportunity to live in the moment once a day, every day. As you start to accumulate these mindful moments, your life will become more peaceful, more rewarding, and more awakened.
Discover the benefits of meditation for yourself. In Being Present, Kundtz guides us through the seasons of a year--and the seasons of a life--drawing inspiration and mindfulness quotes from poets and scientists, spiritual teachers and children, butterflies and big cities. With the help of this book, you will discover how to:
- Be present and become a more mindful person
- Maintain the focus, awareness, and equanimity that you need for getting through stressful situations
- Experience the peaceful moments of mindful living
If you found the daily reflections in inspirational books like A Year of Positive Thinking, The Daily Book of Positive Quotations, and Greatest Inspirational Quotes, then you'll love meditating on the mindfulness quotes and thoughts in Being Present.
