About this deal

There is a saying in Zen practice, munen muso, that describes a state of being free from worldly desires and distracting thoughts. The author requests us not just understand these Zen practices only intellectually, but also actually practice them. Un regalo para todos aquellos que buscan herramientas para luchar contra la ansiedad de cada día o para enfrentarse a situaciones difíciles, especialmente en el ámbito laboral.

Un libro corto, en el que se explican 100 pequeños gestos que pueden mejorar sustancialmente tu vida. You don't need to go to the ancient Japanese capitals of Kyoto or Nara; you don't need to climb Mount Fuji; and you don't need to live near the ocean. And these chapters combine traditional wisdom with practicality to introduce tips and learnings that can be easily implemented because they don’t require a huge amount of effort or time. Conversely, if you pay attention to your diet and strengthen your body, your mind, too, will become healthier and stronger. Bovendien zijn de metaforen en omschrijvingen met regelmaat zo mooi dat ik het helemaal voor me zie en voel.

It's a translation from a Japanese original, and is a window into Japanese culture as well as Zen thinking. Although it may seem counterintuitive, when it comes to coordinating what direction the rocks will face, the fewer people involved, the easier it is to synchronize. Ideas or sparks actually emerge from the empty spaces within your mind – from the gaps between your thoughts. I would listed to it on audio every time my mind got wrapped up with worry and anxiety which lately, has been often! Of course, not all chapters may feel like you can apply them to your life, but even so I feel that most would.

Ya de por sí, la forma de afrontar las cosas característica de Asía me gusta, pero sobre todo, me gusta conocer y saber más sobre el zen y el budismo. Written by Shunmyo Masuno, a Zen Buddhist monk based in Yokohama, also renowned as a designer of Zen gardens.When something bad happens and you are feeling down, try clapping your hands in front of you -- in an instant you can feel better, having been put in a new frame of mind. While what we learn from expending mental effort may be important, what our body learns from physical labour has a greater effect on mental strength. In clear, practical and easy to follow lessons - one a day for 100 days - renowned Buddhist monk Shunmyo Masuno draws on centuries of wisdom to show you how to apply the essence of Zen to modern life.
