"This book shows us the heart of mindfulness. It reveals how the power of being present, the deepening of our own awareness, and the building of our own resiliency will help us thrive in our ever-changing and growingly complicated world. This book will help you settle down and settle in to the deeper and more tenacious part of who you are--the part you have probably been looking for all along."
