Here is a jewel box of insightful, wise, beautiful, and compassionate ways to do so."—Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart

"With simple exercises designed to bring mindfulness into daily life and with gentle ways to remind ourselves to practice, the author leads practitioners to the discoveries and deeper lessons that each exercise can reveal.
