Relax And Be Aware Av Sayadaw U. Tejaniya

A lucid, practical guide to develop relaxation, awareness, mental clarity, and spiritual insight in your daily life. Since mindfulness is known to be so physically, mentally, and spiritually beneficial, why not practice it right now? Why not in every moment? Burmese Buddhist master Sayadaw U Tejaniya writes that we can indeed practice in this way, and the key is consistency. Thirty-one short chapters--'A Month of Daily Life Meditations'--show precisely how to build a regular practice that will deepen over time. With evident compassion and insight, U Tejaniya teaches full-time, daily-life meditation as a process that steadily develops relaxation, refreshment, and enlightenment. In addition to the guided meditations, the book features a helpful introduction by longtime student and meditation teacher Doug McGill, as well as opening chapters on Buddhist wisdom and energy practices that support continuous daily awareness. 'The right time to meditate is all day long, from the moment we wake up and open our eyes, until the moment we fall asleep at night,' writes U Tejaniya. 'Meditation shouldn't make the mind or the body tired. If you are practicing correctly with right effort, it will definitely bring peace and joy.'
