Reviews for The Blooming of a Lotus: Essential Guided Meditations for Mindfulness, Healing, and Transformation

Thich Nhat Hanh is a great teacher. More than anyone I know, he has made mindfulness practice accessible to the modern world. --Natalie Goldberg, author of Writing Down the Bones Any one of these meditations, if practiced with sincerity and wholeheartedness, can make the richness of the present moment apparent and bring you closer to yourself. --Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Wherever You Go, There You Are Here the deepest, subtlest teachings of the Dharma are made as immediate as the miracle of our own breathing. --Joanna Macy, author of World as Lover, World as Self
