In his travels around the country and the world, Zen master and international bestelling author, Thich Nhat Hanh witnessed a growing unhappiness among the many people he encountered. He saw the hectic pace of our day-to-day lives taking a toll. In response, the renowned teacher sat down to write Peace Is Every Breath, a book that makes the core teachings of Buddha accessible for everyone. Inside these pages, Thich Nhat Hanh does not suggest that we escape from reality and put our busy lives on hold. Far from it. In this jewel of a book he provides the insight and tools we need to incorporate the practice of mindfulness into our every waking moment. We can transcend the mad rush of our days and discover that within the here and now, the rituals of our days, we have the ability to experience inner peace and happiness.
