’n Stil gemoed verskyn oorspronklik in 1993 in Engels onder die
titel Tranquil Mind. Die eerste Afrikaanse uitgawe verskyn in 1997,
en die tyd is dus ryp vir ’n heruitgawe. ’n Stil gemoed is ’n
eenvoudige inleiding tot die Boeddhisme en meditasie. Die
Boeddhisme is wesenlik ’n aantal metodes om met die verstand en
gemoed om te gaan. As ons hierdie metodes verstaan en op ons lewens
toepas, sal hulle ons inherente vermoe om innerlike vrede,
erbarming en wysheid te ervaar laat ontplooi deur die potensiaal
van ons gees te ontwikkel. Mediteerders in die Weste ervaar unieke
probleme as gevolg van hul kulturele, sosiale en sielkundige
agtergrond. Aan die hand van sy uitgebreide akademiese en praktiese
ervaring stel die skrywer van hierdie inleiding die onderwerp
bekend op ’n manier wat met die invloede rekening hou.

There is nothing more essential to our health and wellbeing than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat 25,000 times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. In Breath, journalist James Nestor travels the world to discover the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it.
Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can:
- improve our exercise techniques
- restore healthy sleep patterns and minimise snoring
- halt allergies, asthma and even autoimmune disease
Drawing on thousands of years of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge studies, Breath is full of revelations, turning what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head.
You will never breathe the same again.
