Publisher's summary

Can enlightenment be found at the office? From the coauthor of Buddha's Diet comes another book that shows how the wisdom of Buddha can apply to our modern lives - this time exploring how Buddha's guidance can help us navigate the perils of work life.

Without setting foot in an office, Buddha knew that helping people work right was essential to helping them find their path to awakening. Now more than ever, we need Buddha's guidance. Too many of us are working long hours and dealing with difficult bosses, high-maintenance coworkers, and nonstop stress. We need someone to help remind us that there is a better way. With Buddha's wisdom at the core of every chapter, Buddha's Office will help you learn how to stop taking shortcuts and pay more attention, care for yourself and others, deal with distractions, and incorporate Buddha's ageless instructions into our modern working life.

It's time to wake up and start working in a more enlightened way. One that is right for you, right for our health, right for your sanity, and right for the world.

Critic reviews

"This small book is packed with insights, practices, wisdom and humor, all guaranteed to make you the most popular bodhisattva at the water cooler." (Eddie Stern, author of One Simple Thing: A New Look at the Science of Yoga and How It Can Transform Your Life)

"What every book about mindfulness and work should be: thoughtful, accessible, practical without being formulaic. Yes, it's about how to work more mindfully, but it's really about how to live more mindfully." (Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, author of The Distraction Addiction and Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less)

"A wise and compassionate workbook for bringing more humanity and connection into the workplace and into your life. Dan Zigmond has a clear and powerful way of making a case for the value of working and living with more awareness and heart." (Marc Lesser, author of Seven Practices of a Mindful Leader)
