Aware provides practical instruction for mastering the Wheel of
Awareness, a life-changing tool for cultivating more focus, presence,
and peace in one's day-to-day life.
An in-depth look at the science that underlies meditation's
effectiveness, this book teaches readers how to harness the power of
the principle "Where attention goes, neural firing flows, and neural
connection grows." Siegel reveals how developing a Wheel of Awareness
practice to focus attention, open awareness, and cultivate kind
intention can literally help you grow a healthier brain and reduce
fear, anxiety, and stress in your life.
Whether you have no experience with a reflective practice or are an
experienced practitioner, Aware is a hands-on guide that will enable
you to become more focused and present, as well as more energized and
emotionally resilient in the face of stress and the everyday challenges
life throws your way.
From the winner of The President Joseph R. Biden Lifetime
Achievement Award, a spiritual guide to restoring yourself from
racial trauma and committing to the long work of dismantling
racism. In her work as Executive Director of the Absalom Jones
Center for Racial Healing, Meeks has fought tirelessly to shed
light on racism and provide tools and experiences to enable faith
communities to work to combat it. In this new book, she shares
highlights and insights from her journey and offers a much-needed
meditative guide for the weary and frustrated. By looking inward
and at each other clearly, she argues, good people of all
backgrounds can forge a long term and individual path to making a
difference. With personal stories and thoughtful direction, she
takes the reader on the trajectory from self-awareness to
recognition of the past to a new and individual way forward.
Meditation topics include how to work through fear and rage, how
stories can help heal, honoring your ancestors while looking toward
the future, what it really means to love one another and the
meaning of social justice.
