Review:Just finished it, and have started back at the beginning to pick up points I no doubt missed my first time through. Plenty of good advice to be found here - and I must say it's already impacted how I think/respond to things. I'm a "work in progress"!

How timely (election 1 week away now) that politics was mentioned in a few passages, appropriately in a negative light - even touching on "birtherism"!! Read more

Review:This book expanded my knowledge of Buddhism and I will definitely use it frequently. This is not a book that you can read and capture all the meanings of the vocabulary used in the book. I would also recommend it to others who are interested in expanding their knowledge of other religions and beliefs. Read more

Review:great book, I would recommend it to both individuals new to mindfulness practices and those who have been practicing for years. I have read the book several times over the past year and always seem to get something new out of it that is helpful! Read more

Review:For those already familiar with interpersonal communication/dynamics, "How to Be an Adult" is a comprehensive reader. For those "in the midst" of relational change or stress (and who isn't?), author David Richo is a peace-full companion. Read this book--I'm buying more for my friends! Read more

Review:A million ways to say the same thing in a very small book. If you need to have something beat into your head over and over before you get the concept, this is the book for you. Basically, just be mindful.- of others, their energy, yourself and your energy. Be aware of toxic communication both ways. Read more

Review:Buddha's words make you self-aware and enable you to break away from human condition. Once you are no longer chasing your tail, you can devote your mental energies to better things in life and Buddha also shows you how to do that perfectly. You will also take better care of your physical health. Overall, a must read for mental and physical well-being. I loved Bhikkhu Bodhi neat introductions in the beginning of the chapters that excellently summarized meanings of the suttas. Read more

Review:Fascinating, two-level way to read this book: I learned about the ways that Byron Katie lives in harmony (ways that I could be applying "The Work") and came to a deeper understanding of The Tao te Ching. Read more

Review:This is a very comprehensive book to be studied from front to back. If you are not familier with the I-Ching, I would strongly recommend that you start with the I-Ching for beginners, then move on to this book after you have a better understanding of what is going on and how the I-Ching works and the history.
