"How to Eat" is the second in a Parallax's series of how-to titles
by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh that introduce beginners to and
remind seasoned practitioners of the essentials of mindfulness
practice. Pocket-sized, with bold black-and-white illustrations by
Jason DeAntonis, "How to Eat" explains what it means to eat as a
meditative practice and why eating mindfully is important. Specific
instructions are followed by a collection of verses written for
secular practitioners that help set a mindful intention for each
activity connected with preparing, serving, eating, and cleaning up
after meals.
The results of mindful eating are both global and personal. Eating
a meal in mindfulness shows practitioners that the whole universe
is supporting them. This awareness helps develop compassion and
understanding, reminding practitioners that there are things they
can do to help nourish people who are hungry and lonely.
Encouraging moderation, mindful eating can lead to optimum health
and body weight, while diminishing waste, and contributing to a
more healthy society.
Scientific studies indicate that meditation contributes
tremendously to well-being, general health, and longevity. "How to
Eat" is perfect for those who want a comprehensive yet simple guide
to eating as a meditative practice.

world. Full of remarkable stories from Thich Nhat Hanh's own

We can spend a lot of time looking for happiness when the world
right around us is full of wonder. But our hearts and minds are so
full of noise that we can't always hear the call of life and love.
To hear that call and respond to it, we need silence. In his
beautiful new book, Buddhist monk and Nobel Peace Prize nominee
Thich Nhat Hanh explains how mindfulness is the practice that stops
the noise inside. With gentle anecdotes, simple Buddhist wisdom and
practical exercises, he shows us how to live mindfully so that all
the internal chatter ceases and we are left with the eloquent sound
of silence. Now, at last, we can answer the call of the beauty
around us. Through silence, Thich Nhat Hanh reveals, we are free to
hear, to see - and just be.

Prize nominee Thich Nhat Hanh explains how to acquire the skills of
mindfulness. Once we have these skills, we can slow our lives down
and discover how to live in the moment - even simple acts like
washing the dishes or drinking a cup of tea may be transformed into
acts of meditation. Thich Nhat Hanh's gentle anecdotes and
practical exercises help us to arrive at greater self-understanding
and peacefulness, whether we are beginners or advanced students.
Irrespective of our particular religious beliefs, we can begin to
reap the immense benefits that meditation has been scientifically
proven to offer. We can all learn how to be mindful and experience
the miracle of mindfulness for ourselves.
