What if inner peace was just... average?
Mediocre Mindfulness is a darkly funny parody of self-help culture for anyone who's tired of pretending to be calm. Forget daily affirmations and deep breathing, this pocket-sized guide to semi-serenity embraces the art of being fine-ish.
Across six delightfully relatable chapters: Office Zen, Remote Work Awareness, Family Gathering Enlightenment, Grocery Store Grounding, Public Transport Presence, and At Home with Yourself, you'll find wry, comforting one-liners about surviving modern life with a sigh and a sense of humor.
Perfect for fans of Zen as F*ck, Calm the F*ck Down, and other irreverent wellness books, Mediocre Mindfulness makes the ideal gift for overthinkers, exhausted coworkers, burnt-out parents, and anyone who needs a laugh instead of another lecture.
- Funny mindfulness gift book
- Adult parody of self-help and wellness culture
- Perfect stocking stuffer, office gift, or coffee table laugh
- Compact 5x8 matte paperback - 100 pages of ironic calm
Because enlightenment is overrated - and you're already halfway there.
