Publisher's summary

You are about to unlock Buddhist secrets that will help you change your brain to change your life from one filled with unhappiness, stress, anxiety, and depression to one filled with calmness, a sense of purpose, and enlightenment!

The quest for happiness can be fleeting. It feels like we are running on a hamster wheel or a treadmill - just never moving forward and finding the peace, calmness, and happiness we seek! We still feel empty after "having it all".

Are you tired of chasing happiness without “catching up with it”?

Is there a secret to happiness?

Is there a way to go back to the drawing board to chart our journey to happiness and follow it until happiness, peace of mind, and more good stuff ooze from our being?

Well, there is no secret to happiness. But there is a practice that can help you unlock the happiness you so much wish you had: Buddhism.

As Buddha aptly put it: "No matter how hard the past, you can always begin again."

So, if you wish to go back to the drawing board to set your life on a new trajectory, one where you ooze peace and happiness, Buddhism can help!

Founded close to 2,500 years ago in Asia, Buddhist teachings are increasingly being sought after for achieving peace, happiness, and neutralizing all the stress that we have these days!

And the good news is medical research is beginning to prove that indeed, this 2,500-year-old practice has scientifically provable benefits! It is not a religion, so don’t worry about switching to a Buddhist monk. All you have to do is to follow its teachings and implement them in your everyday life!

I know you are wondering:

  • So, what does Buddhism entail?
  • How do you adopt it into your everyday life?
  • What exactly does Buddhism teach?
  • Do you have to be a Buddhist monk to practice different Buddhist teachings?
  • How does it bring about the benefits that it promises?

This audiobook seeks to answer these and other questions comprehensively so that you know exactly what to do to neutralize the stresses in your life and welcome happiness into your everyday life.

In it, you will learn:

  • The basics of Buddhism, including what it is all about, the different ways of practicing Buddhism, how it has evolved to become what it is now, etc.
  • The causes of suffering and how to follow a clear path to achieve happiness, peace, and enlightenment
  • The A-Z guide on concepts and beliefs you should observe when practicing Buddhism
  • Steps to tame the monkey mind to set you up for success as you practice various Buddhist teachings
  • Buddhist meditation practices/techniques (with varying degrees of difficulty) that will help you calm down and bring an oasis of peace even in the most stressful situations
  • The Buddhist meditation poses that will enable you to bring out the peace and calmness you are looking for
  • Ways to use Buddhism’s most popular practice, mindfulness, to be at peace and calmness anywhere anytime
  • Steps to inculcate Buddhist practices in your everyday life to make peace, calmness and happiness a part of your everyday life
  • And much more!

Let this book usher you into your new reality where peace and happiness come naturally.
