We try so hard to be happy that we often end up missing the most important parts of our lives. In Mindfulness, Oxford professor Mark Williams and award-winning journalist Danny Penman reveal the secrets to living a happier and less anxious, stressful, and exhausting life. Based on the techniques of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, the unique program developed by Williams and his colleagues, the book offers simple and straightforward forms of mindfulness meditation that can be done by anyone--and it can take just 10 to 20 minutes a day for the full benefits to be revealed"--Provided by publisher.

world peace submitted by angie. on August 25, 2021, 9:33pm interesting :) nous avons besoin de la paix mondiale. Pourquoi? car nous vivons tous sur ce monde. imaginez ce que c'est de vous réveiller un jour et d'avoir peur pour votre vie parce qu'il y a une guerre. non, pourquoi devrions-nous faire ça alors que toi et moi pourrions vivre ensemble en harmonie ? eh bien, ne boostez pas votre ego, vous n'êtes pas meilleur que quiconque. même des présidents ou des dirigeants mondiaux. SURTOUT les leaders mondiaux. Comme, pourquoi es-tu tellement mieux que les autres même quand tu ne peux pas prendre soin de ton pays ? A moins que vous ne soyez le Seigneur Jésus ou le Dieu Père, que j'aime et adore tant. Mais nous devons créer un monde et une société meilleurs pour nos enfants et petits-enfants. Imaginez leur vie, en danger, ou même la vôtre. S'ils veulent vivre leur meilleure vie, nous avons besoin de paix. beaucoup d'amour à ceux qui sont militants pour ça ! Que Dieu bénisse tous ceux qui ont besoin d'être bénis, juste un petit message ! au revoir!
