Mindfulness Redesigned for the Twenty-First Century: Let's Not Cage the Hummingbird A Mindful Path

Product Description

April 24th, 2012 was one of the best days of my life. I sat on the stage, immersed in a dialog with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the global embodiment of compassion. An hour into the discussion, I asked the audience this important question: "How many of you find meditation piece of cake, very easy?" To my total surprise, of the 500 attendees, literally the who's who of the meditation world, only one or two raised their hands. Over the next ten minutes, the Dalai Lama himself, in all his humility and grace, shared his personal struggles with meditation. (Watch the dialog between 1:05:45 and 1:14:30 at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ca7faWkfmwc.) I walked away that day with a much more realistic expectation of how far meditation could take me. Later, I wondered, "If the world’s meditation leaders struggle with being in-the-moment and non-judgmental, what about all of us?" The chaos and pain I saw in the world created a sense of urgency. Inspired, I asked myself this very important question, “How would Buddha conceptualize mindfulness if he was to start afresh in the twenty-first century?” Mindfulness Redesigned encapsulates my answer to this question. In writing this book I haven’t tried to present a get-calm-quick kind of guide. Instead, drawing from thousands of research studies and my personal experience with helping tens of thousands of people, the book will help you: 1. Understand your brain (particularly neuroscience of focus, fear, fatigue, habits, compassion, forgiveness, hope, courage, curiosity, and meditation). 2. Answer these two important questions - Why redesign mindfulness? How to redesign mindfulness? The science and skills presented in the book will help you: • Deepen your relationships • Heal emotional wounds • Decrease sadness and anxiety • Sharpen your focus • Increase your resilience • Lower your burnout • Experience authentic joy • Develop self-compassion and self-forgiveness. The outcome will be freedom—from the traps of your past hurts, present chaos, future worries, and the brain’s negative traits. Free your inner hummingbird to fly—from the present moment to eternity, with the wings of wisdom and love. That freedom is yours, waiting to be claimed. Exercise that right today…now.
