Live life more fully and enjoy the present moment with mindfulness practices for cultivating deeper mind-body awareness—from legendary Zen Buddhist Thich Nhat Hanh. We can’t heal with our minds alone. Thinking can be something productive and creative, but without integrating body and mind, much of our thinking is useless and unproductive. In Peace of Mind, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh reminds us that integrating body and mind is the only way to be fully alive in each moment, without getting lost in our thoughts while walking, cooking, driving, and going about our everyday lives. Only by cultivating a mindful body and an embodied mind can we be fully alive. Bringing together ancient wisdom and contemporary thinking, Thich Nhat Hanh says it's like hardware and software—if you don't have both, you can't do anything. Peace of Mind provides a foundation for beginning mindfulness practices and understanding the principles of mind/body awareness. By learning how our physical body and mind are inseparable in creating our own perceptions and experiences we can begin to trust and nourish our ability to create well-being.
Do you feel like anxiety is making your life smaller? Are you always worried about the next panic attack? Or are you so stressed that you can't remember when you last felt peaceful and happy? What if there was a simple solution that meant you could stop coping, and start living? For more than 20 years, Nicola Bird experienced anxiety and panic attacks, sometimes so severely she couldn't leave the house. She tried everything, including medication, psychiatric counselling, yoga, and NLP. Then she stumbled upon a completely different way of understanding the human mind that changed her relationship with anxiety forever. In A Little Peace of Mind, Nicola opens up about her own experiences and shares simple ideas to help you realise your own innate mental health and wellbeing. At the heart of this understanding, you'll discover the peace of mind that has been eluding you all this time.
In a world that often asks us to consider the things that can separate us...whether that is race, politics or ethnicity...A Peace of My Mind explores the common humanity that unites us. "A Peace of My Mind" is a 120-page book that features the b&w portraits and personal stories of 55 individuals who answer the simple question, "What does peace mean to you?" Since 2009, Noltner has photographed and interviewed Holocaust survivors, refugees, political leaders, artists, homeless individuals, and others, asking them to reveal what peace means to them, how they work towards it in their lives and what obstacles they encounter along the way. The result is a stunning and heart-felt collection that acknowledges the challenges we face as a society, yet builds hope through the inspiring stories of people committed to peaceful tomorrows.

Are you in quest of love and peace? Dear reader, I have been dreaming of marrying Guddi ever since childhood. No, I didn't love her back then. I wanted to marry her simply because all my friends were married (child marriage!), and I didn't want to lag behind. Now, I love her deeply. But for her, marriage is a three-ring circus – engagement ring, wedding ring and suffering. More so, I've run away from her a couple of times for my atonement. But every time, life has dragged me back to her. In running after love and peace, I forgot to live! A mesmerizing anecdote about following your heart, Love & Peace is about my fight with fate and life to achieve what I had set my heart on. Come, join my journey and rediscover yourself. Love and peace, Raju.

The fruit of a thesis for a doctoral degree in comparative religions and mysticism, A Journey To Self-Peace is Dr. Abdelfattah Mohsen Badawi's gift to the spiritual seekers of contemporary society. Bringing together faith that walks different roads and signifying that all roads lead to the same goal, Dr. Badawi lays before the reader the problems faced by humanity today and their solution, which can be found by embarking on a journey to discover peace within oneself, the Self that is a spark of Almighty God. On this sacred journey to self-peace, Dr. Badawi walks the road laid down by Sufi saints, adhering to his faith in Islam. He adopts the sacred method of repetition of the Name of God, called dhikr in Sufism and namasmarana in Sanathana Dharma. A Journey To Self-Peace expounds on the benefits of the practice of repetition of the Name, the obstacles that lie on this sacred road Godward, and the scientific analysis that proves this method as a solution to the physical, mental, and social ills faced by humanity. This book brings to fore and highlights the benefits of a practice, which is, according to God Incarnate, the Avatar Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, the easiest method to attain realisation of God in the present age.
This book was created a few months after I experienced the most successful year of my life followed by a difficult year full of trials that resulted in deep internal depression. I tried to hide it from the outside world, I tried to smile though my heart was tearful and sad. I knew it wasn't good that I needed to do something, somehow get better. I started looking for answers and peace, not in the noise of the outside world but in solitude. In silence.Two years ago when I slowly got out of depression I found inner peace and began to enjoy life again. That was the time when I wrote twenty-one short thoughts and questions that I was contemplating. They not only helped me then but also at different times throughout the first eight years of my business. Thanks to these and similar contemplations I was able to overcome many obstacles.When I wrote these two years ago I wanted to publish them but somehow I didn't feel good about it. Maybe the motive wasn't right, maybe it just needed more time so they lay for two years stored in my drawer ... until March 2020, when a virus came and with it a global pandemic.I suddenly remembered about them, added a little, adjusted and decided to make available to anyone who felt it is for them. These are lines written from the heart. If my approach helps someone in the way it helps me I will be glad as it was worth it and writing these few pages made sense. This book is dedicated to all who have the courage to take the leftover broken pieces of life and create from them a wonderful masterpiece.I believe that you will also find your inner peace by reading the words in this book.Some say it takes about 21 days to establish a new habit. So I wrote 21 thoughts. Maybe I could say; read this in 21 days and you will have won. A chapter per day. What do you think? Try it, it will be intense. Take it as a training, I have to say, however, right at the beginning that it may take longer for you to adopt the new ways of thinking.21 days may be the length of time that it takes for us to develop a habit of brushing our teeth (I hope we mastered this one while we were children). Some may thanks to great techniques change their way of thinking pretty fast. I must confess I wasn't such a fast learner. If you also belong to the category of slow learners do not beat yourself up for it. Have patience with yourself and treat yourself with love. It will lead to success! It will, if you want it to...
