Publisher's Synopsis
Do you long to bring greater fulfillment, peace, and purpose into your everyday life?
Do you struggle to choose joy as you face anxiety and depression each day?
Or are you simply looking for a straightforward way to be happy and compassionate?
If you answered yes to any of the questions above, this book will quickly change your life.
The teachings of Buddhism have guided spiritual seekers for over 2,500 years.
In our modern world, we can all benefit from the inner peace, selflessness, and higher knowledge that Buddhists practice each day.
But the language of Buddhism can be difficult to understand, since ideas like "Buddhahood" and "the ten worlds" are unfamiliar to the Western mindset.
By learning more about the teachings of Buddhism, you can start making changes in your life that will help you to be a happier and more balanced person.
The principles of meditation, enlightenment, and discipline will deepen your understanding of life, relationships with others, and yourself.
From practicing selflessness to pursuing greater mindfulness and deep happiness, a comprehensive understanding of Buddhist principles from many different sects will improve your life in many ways.
This guide is rooted in evidence-based research, such as the 2011 study called "Brain Mechanisms Supporting the Modulation of Pain by Mindfulness Meditation," which was published by Zeidan, F., et al. in The Journal of Neuroscience.
Their work reveals how regular meditation can help ease both physical and emotional pain, and how meditation can transform your outlook on life.
In this book, you will discover:
- How to reap the benefits of daily meditation, including pain management, weight loss, and longer life
- Which of the 10 worlds you're living in -- and which one you should be living in
