A Sweet Read: Just One Thing







I've been reading this book, Just One Thing: Developing a Buddha Brain One Simple Practice at a Time by Rick Hanson, on and off for the past year and I have to say I love it.  The reason why I say "off and on" is because it's full of these fantastic lessons on life and mindfulness and I've found I like to sit with a couple lessons and incorporate them into my life before moving on.  I highly recommend it.

Amazon summary:
You’ve heard the expression, “It’s the little things that count.” Research has shown that little daily practices can change the way your brain works, too. This book offers simple brain-training practices you can do every day to protect against stress, lift your mood, and find greater emotional resilience. Just One Thing is a treasure chest of over fifty practices created specifically to deepen your sense of well-being and unconditional happiness.
Just one practice each day can help you:
  • Be good to yourself
  • Enjoy life as it is
  • Build on your strengths
  • Be more effective at home and work
  • Make peace with your emotions
