The Miracle of Mindfulness: An Introduction to the Practice of Meditation

↻ 2026-07-27

A light book and a good overview of introductory practice. Nothing in it is difficult to pick up, which I take to be the point.

If I’m meditating, I think I’m more of a minimalist, along the lines of TM. The practices here are more active, more involved, and more engaged with the world, in that they’re trying to cultivate awareness in the middle of ordinary activity rather than apart from it. There are times in my day when I could use something like that. I still prefer the simplicity of a mantra and a moment outside the bustle.
