Book excerpt: If you want to learn how Buddhism can SKYROCKET your peace and happiness in daily life then keep reading... Do you want to learn the fundamentals of Buddhism? Do you want to learn it in a PRACTICAL manner that actually improves your day to day life? Do you want to learn it in an easy to understand manner? Buddhism now is more popular than it has been in decades, the Buddha's incredible teachings are starting to get the recognition they deserve. What has happened recently is a wave of books that only go over the theory of Buddhism and don't cover the most important aspect- how Buddhism can transform your daily life and revolutionize you as a person. As a practicing Buddhist, I came to the realization that while memorizing the 4 Noble Truths is great, what's more important is living the teachings, and allowing them to permeate into your life. Not only that, but for us Westerners we need a slightly different approach then the Monks, we have busy and demanding lives and Buddhism can still help us live in harmony! We've all seen the studies on Mindfulness, such as the 2011 study in the Psychiatry research showed how Mindfulness Meditation can literally change our brain chemistry or how a 2009 Harvard study proved Mindfulness can help fight disease through the 'relaxation effect.' But, this won't have any impact on you until you start PRACTICING Mindfulness and Meditation, memorizing the 5 hindrances doesn't have quite the same effect unfortunately. Anyways, here is just a slither of what you will discover inside... - The 1 Practice the Buddha recommended that will make you the Happiest version of yourself! - How to use the 4 Noble truths to ELIMINATE suffering in your life - What 'Awakening' is and how to actually awaken yourself! - The 5 Secrets Buddhist Monks use to become effortlessly happy every single day - Why this 1 daily practice will help you find serenity in the most crazy times of your life - A simple, yet incredibly effective, meditation technique to help you relieve stress and feel more at peace even if you've NEVER meditated before - 7 Practical tips to help you free yourself from the tyranny of your own mind - The truth about Karma and how it can genuinely help you transform your life (Most westerners don't know this) - How to practice Buddhism on your own terms, in your own way (Remember it's a personal practice!) - Why more average westerners are becoming Buddhist than ever before AND increasing their happiness levels at the same time - What Buddhists know about true peace that you don't - How to live your life in the present moment with the help of these 5 Practices - Tips and Strategies for making all of the teachings part of your 'Everyday Buddhism' practice - The Startling truth about why the most important part of Buddhism is the PRACTICAL applications of the teachings - And that is barely even scratching the surface! Even if you have no idea what Karma really is or don't even have a clue what this whole Mindfulness craze is all about, this book outlines an easy to digest way how the incredible teachings of the Buddha can transform your life! So, if you want the Essential Buddhist teachings delivered in the most practical manner to help you live a life full of joy and happiness then scroll up and click "Add to Cart."

Book excerpt: How do you cope when facing life-threatening illness, family conflict, faltering relationships, old trauma, obsessive thinking, overwhelming emotion, or inevitable loss? If you’re like most people, chances are you react with fear and confusion, falling back on timeworn strategies: anger, self-judgment, and addictive behaviors. Though these old, conditioned attempts to control our life may offer fleeting relief, ultimately they leave us feeling isolated and mired in pain. There is another way. Beneath the turbulence of our thoughts and emotions exists a profound stillness, a silent awareness capable of limitless love. Tara Brach, author of the award-winning Radical Acceptance, calls this awareness our true refuge, because it is available to every one of us, at any moment, no exceptions. In this book, Brach offers a practical guide to finding our inner sanctuary of peace and wisdom in the midst of difficulty. Based on a fresh interpretation of the three classic Buddhist gateways to freedom—truth, love, and awareness—True Refuge shows us the way not just to heal our suffering, but also to cultivate our capacity for genuine happiness. Through spiritual teachings, guided meditations, and inspirational stories of people who discovered loving presence during times of great struggle, Brach invites us to connect more deeply with our own inner life, one another, and the world around us. True Refuge is essential reading for anyone encountering hardship or crisis, anyone dedicated to a path of spiritual awakening. The book reminds us of our own innate intelligence and goodness, making possible an enduring trust in ourselves and our lives. We realize that what we seek is within us, and regardless of circumstances, “there is always a way to take refuge in a healing and liberating presence.” Praise for True Refuge “Drawing on the latest findings in neuroscience as well as ten more years of personal experience on the path of awakening, Tara Brach’s superb second book brings readers ever more deeply in touch with our true nature. This book is a precious gift, filled with insight, shared from heart to heart.”—Thich Nhat Hanh “True Refuge is a magnificent work of heart. For anyone interested in developing a deeper understanding of the mind and how to improve the quality of their life, this book offers unique insights and easily learned practices that literally can transform your life’s path. Read, explore, and enjoy!”—Daniel J. Siegel, M.D., author of No-Drama Discipline

Book excerpt: Buddhism For Beginners An insightful guide into one of the world's three major religions and wisdom behind its philosophy and teachings. There once was a prince who left everything; he had to walk the Middle Path and attain enlightenment. So moved was he by the sufferings and the plight of the people that he saw outside the palace walls that he left a life of wealth, riches, and everything that a prince could want to search for a way to end the cycle of suffering. His actions brought about the birth of one of the world's most peace-loving religions Any beginner who is looking to take up Buddhism is going to need Buddhism for Beginners in their library. Buddhism is one of the world's three oldest religions, yet not many fully understand what this religion encompasses. Despite being a religion, the one notable thing about Buddhism that distinguishes it from the rest is that Buddhism does not worship any God or deity. Yes, Buddha was not a God; he was a person. A former prince maybe, but not a God. Prince Siddhartha Gautama was the very first Buddha to walk the earth, and since then, several Buddhas have come and gone. Buddha is not a person, but a name for those who have managed to successfully attain what all Buddhists seek to do: Attain Nirvana (Enlightenment). If you were wondering why the statues of Buddha always seem to be depicted different, this is one of the reasons why. Prince Siddhartha was the first, but he certainly was not the last. Buddhism is a religion that focuses on teaching its followers about suffering, the causes of suffering, and what they can do to end the cycle. Suffering is an inevitable part of life, yet it is a part that nearly everyone strives or deny. Yet, Buddhism believes that the key to happiness lies in our ability to embrace the sufferings of this life, and develop a greater understanding of the world around us so that we might one day no longer be afflicted by the pain that suffering brings. This is the ideal guide for anyone who is looking to broaden their understanding of this remarkable religion and the way its teachings can transform the way that we live. What Buddhism for Beginners is going to cover includes: - A historical look at Buddhism and the story of a prince - How Buddhist philosophy can be used to live a better life - A look at life, death, and spirituality - Understanding what it means to be a Buddhist - An introduction into the gestures, Right Discipline, and practices - The benefits of Buddhism - Understanding suffering, karma, reincarnation, and yoga - What the life of a Buddhist is like - The practices you can implement in your life - Mindfulness and acceptance techniques to help manage stress and anxiety - A Buddhist's diet - Meditative practices - What you didn't know about Buddhism Scroll Up and 'Add To Cart' To Get Your Copy Today!
