Mindfulness and the Big Questions | Free Book
"Irvine, a philosopher, strikes an engaging, self-deprecatory tone
as he criticizes his field for its aloofness and failure to engage
with the world as it is." - The Creativity Post
Why am I here? What does it all mean? These are the big questions we
all ask ourselves at some point. Offering an enlightening approach
to these universal conundrums this book explores how mindfulness can
reveal hidden solutions to life’s mysteries. Weaving together
philosophy and mindfulness to reveal how we can become wiser and
happier simply by paying attention to everyday life, Dr Ben
Irvine illustrates how the feeling of existential angst can be
turned into a sense of wonder and opportunity. Offering a positive
approach to the common problem of existential angst, he teaches how
to embrace life’s uncertainties through the transformational
practice of mindfulness meditation, and provides practical and
thoughtful meditations for everyday life, bringing us back to the
here and now.
