Wholehearted: Slow Down, Help Out, Wake Up

Beschreibung

An inspiring book that will help readers rediscover their values and discover a way to truly live life to the fullest. The Dalai Lama on Wholehearted: "Intimacy is based on the willingness to open ourselves to many others, to family, friends, and even strangers, forming genuine and deep bonds based on common humanity. Koshin Paley Ellison's teachings share the way forward into a path of connection, compassion, and intimacy." Each of us has an enormous capacity for love-a deep well of attention and care that we can offer to ourselves and others. With guidance that is both simple and wholly transformative, Koshin Paley Ellison, Zen teacher and psychotherapist, shows us how to uncover it: pay attention, be of service, and be with others. With this inspiring and down-to-earth book, drawn from the Zen precepts and illustrated with anecdotes from Koshin's own life and practice, you'll learn how to * explore and investigate with your own core values, * identify the mental habits that could be unconsciously hurting yourself and others, and * overcome isolation. Each chapter closes with a contemplation to help integrate the teachings into your life. This book is about getting back in touch with your values, so you can live energetically, authentically, and lovingly. This an invitation to close the gaps we create between ourselves and others-to wake up to ourselves and the world around us. It's time to live wholeheartedly.
