<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>In this book, Joey Weber argues that equanimity - the art of non-judgement and compassion (for yourself and others) - can enhance the transformative potential of mindfulness.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The huge popularity of mindfulness in recent years has introduced many people to the benefits of paying purposeful attention to the present moment. In this book, Joey Weber argues that equanimity - the art of non-judgement and compassion (for yourself and others) - can enhance the transformative potential of mindfulness. The book brings equanimity to life with case studies, guided meditations and practical tips, and is insightful for anyone, whether in tune with mindfulness or not, who wishes to expand their introspective toolkit and improve their mental health. The book sharpens its focus on how we can become less biased and more cohesive as a society, and ultimately act more compassionately towards one another. In a world of increasing inequality and divisiveness, it seems now, more than ever, we must practise looking inward in order to cool the outer flames of division. </p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Drawing upon Buddhist perspectives but informed by modern methods of psychological research, this book enables us to distinguish between those features of mindfulness that are truly valuable in nurturing our capacity for wisdom and compassion, and those elements which are essentially a capitulation to narcissistic consumerism." Lama Jampa Thaye, scholar and meditation master, London</p><p><br></p><p>"Joey is passionate about making contemplative practice transformative not just personally, but globally. You hold in your hands one of the few books that explores the practice of equanimity with passion, depth and deep personal experience. If you've tried mindfulness and want to go further, this will be a fascinating and insightful read for you." Shamash Alidina, mindfulness teacher and author of Mindfulness For Dummies, London</p><p><br></p><p>"Joey Weber shows that mindfulness is even more powerful when we bring the attitude of equanimity into the mix as the foundation for the development of empathy and compassion." Robina Courtin, Buddhist teacher, Santa Fe</p><p><br></p><br>
