Zen: The Art of Simple Living

Drawing on centuries of wisdom, renowned Zen Buddhist priest Shunmyo Masuno applies the essence of Zen to modern life in clear, practical, easily adopted lessons-one a day for 100 days. Discover how:

* lining up your shoes after you take them off can bring order to your life
* putting down your fork after every bite can help you feel more grateful for what you have
* spending time barefoot can strengthen your body
* planting a flower and watching it grow can teach you to embrace change
* going outside to watch the sunset can make every day feel celebratory.

In Zen: The Art of Simple Living, you will learn to find happiness not by seeking out extraordinary experiences but by making small changes-to what you do, how you think, how you interact with others, and how you appreciate the present moment. With each task, you will open yourself up to a renewed sense of peace and inner calm.
