He uses examples of a dirty kitchen, phones ringing, and crazy traffic and shows how you can find opportunities for meditation in each.
He uses real life examples, and simple examples, to show just how easily we can bring peace and calm to situations that do cause stress. The Bottomline: Thich Nhat Hanh was a world renowned Zen master in this book, he really illustrated how to make use out of situations that stress us out or cause burden. What’s interesting is that this book is 30 years old, yet the issues we are trying to solve and remedy for ourselves three decades later are still the same. The book really focuses on steps and exercises to help us find “peace that is available in each moment.” Right from the start, as I read through this book, I did feel a sense of calm start to come over me. Peace is Every Step: The Path of Mindfulness in Everyday Life essentially shares just that – steps to make positive of the situations around us. Thich Nhat Hanh was a lifelong activist, and recently passed away at the age of 95 on January 22, 2022, leaving behind a legacy and message that can help us manage the rush of the modern world. The Premise: This book, Peace is Every Step, came on my radar at the start of January as I was looking to head into another year of the pandemic with a more open – and more peaceful – mindset.
