Summary of Thich Nhat Hanh's Happiness

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The foundation of all mindfulness practice is to bring your attention to your in-breath and out-breath. This is called mindful breathing, and it is simple but extremely effective. When you breathe in, you feel the air filling your lungs. #2 When you breathe in, bring your attention to your in-breath.
When you breathe out, bring your attention to your out-breath. When you breathe in, bring your mind back to a reunion with your body. #3 When you practice breathing like this, it puts you in touch with all the wonders of life. The beauty of life is nourishing you. You are free from your worries and fears. You get in touch with your breath and your body. #4 Don't force your breath. If your in-breath is short, let it be short.
If it's not very peaceful, let it be like that. We don't intervene, force, or work on our breath. We just become aware of it and after some time, the quality of our breathing will improve naturally.
