This book is MUST read.

Love this book to the last minute/page. It's amazing mixture of author's prominent life story and ancient wisdom stripped to the essential. Must read for anyone who feels that there's more in this life beyond consumption, ego and achievement driven pursuits.

Fantastic!

I loved this book so much, spoken and written beautifully. So user friendly, it's life changing.

Simple and Accesible

The form of the book is understandable and is good for beginning with meditation without needing any religious explanations. It's also good companion to Headspace app, because some exercises and attitudes are more explained and in one place. Also Andy's sort of sweet voice is pleasing in the narrative.

A helpful book

Loved this book. Andy's voice is calm and relaxing. I found this book to be very helpful

Loved every bit of it!!

An amazing book on Meditation. Andy amazingly explains the WHY behind meditation and the importance with his interesting incidents and events!

Enjoyed every bit and I would recommend this book to anyone who wish to simply learn meditation without any confusion or jargons.

Also, the book helps you to refine your perspective about everyday life with a simple 10 minute meditation everyday and a mindful life with mindfulness techniques for your daily activities.

I now own this book as both a beautiful hardcover table book and an engaging audiobook!

I’ve read it in two formats—hardcover and ebook—and in two different languages. I’ve also completed the audiobook, and each time I revisit it, I discover something new. It’s the kind of book that keeps giving, no matter how many times you return to it.

Headspace is great so as this book.

This audiobook was great. The book guided me to throw meditation, and the stories of Andy or other people in the book was indeed and educational.

Great introduction to mindfulness

Having used the headspace app for the better part of the past 5 years or so, it was entertaining to hear some of the stories from founder Addy, and it was interesting to hear where certain techniques used in the app are coming from. This book has deepened my understanding, although I’ve been meditating for quite some years already. I’ll probably listen to this audiobook another time in the future as only repetition of anything can lead to mastery. If you’re very experienced in meditation, then this book might not be for you, but for anyone having no, little or intermediate experience it can help enrich your practice.

Fantastic and mindful

Loved the book, of you are familiar with headspace, this is a must. Great as introduction, nice storytelling!
