The Miracle of Mindfulness by Thich Nhat Hanh, read by John Sackville.

The classic guide to mindful meditation practice from the world-renowned Buddhist monk and Zen master.

In this life-changing book, Buddhist monk and Nobel Peace Prize nominee Thich Nhat Hanh provides the definitive guide on how to practise mindfulness.

Through practical exercises and anecdotes, The Miracle of Mindfulness helps us arrive at greater self-understanding and peacefulness, whether we are beginners or advanced students.

With his signature clarity and warmth, Thich Nhat Hanh shows us that, once we know how to be mindful, we can slow ourselves down and start living in the moment – and that even simple acts like washing the dishes or drinking a cup of tea may be transformed into acts of meditation.

Beautifully written, The Miracle of Mindfulness is the essential guide to welcoming presence in your life and truly living in the moment from the father of mindfulness.

Critic reviews

Thich Nhat Hanh's ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity. (Martin Luther King, Jr.)

The father of mindfulness

One of the best available introductions to the wisdom and beauty of meditation practice.

He has immense presence and both personal and Buddhist authority. If there is a candidate for 'Living Buddha' on earth today, it is Thich Nhat Hanh. (Roshi Richard Baker, author of Original Mind: The Practice of Zen in the West)

[Thich Nhat Hanh] shows us the connection between personal, inner peace and peace on earth

The first book to awaken a mainstream readership to the subject of mindfulness – a testimony to the power of Thich Nhat Hanh’s elegant and profound teaching. (Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Full Catastrophe Living)

Thich Nhat Hanh is one of the most beloved Buddhist teachers in the West, a rare combination of mystic, poet, scholar and activist.

Beautifully written and a must-read.

Good but …

For those who seek a practical approach might be very repetitive. The information could be much more compacted. Too slow but good enough to practice mindfulness

Some nice stories, but..

Kind of repetitive, from half way till the end. I can’t say I recommend this book. There are better out there,

Too good to only listen to it

It’s really good but I think I need a paperback to properly underline what I loved the most. It’s really profound and it soothes the busy mind.

Very interesting, but will read again

Good tips to better control your reactions. Nice breathing techniques to help beat stress. Live better, forgive and master yourself.
