What does it take to be happy? We've all asked ourselves this question at some point, but few of us have found the path to lasting fulfillment. David Michie thought he had achieved his life's goals--the high-level job, the expensive city apartment, the luxury car, great holidays...but a small voice was telling him he wasn't really happy. A chance remark from a naturopath sent him to his local Buddhist center. There, he began the most important journey of his life. In this simple but beautifully written audiobook, David Michie opens the door to the core teachings of Tibetan Buddhism. With wry, self-deprecating humor, he shows us how he began to incorporate Buddhist practices into his daily life. He explains how he came to understand the difference between the temporary pleasures of ordinary life, and the profound sense of well-being and heart-felt serenity that comes from connecting with our inner nature.… (més)

OK, more about the author than the topic. He has strong opinions on life, which I don't agree with. It distracted from the rest of the book. ( )

This quote on the book's Amazon description really sums it up: "Michie demystifies the ancient teachings of Buddha, and writes about them with easy style. -- Australia Sunday Mail

This book is a great intro to Buddhism, making it easy for the modern person to digest the main teachings of the Buddha in a light and simple way. The author uses personal experiences to describe how he came to the philosophy and how it changed his life. This book (and his other one Hurry Up and Meditate) changed my life as well... I was struggling with grief over my father's death and nothing I tried was really making a difference. With the help of this book, as well as others, I found a much more peaceful path in my life and I'm stronger and happier than I've ever been!

Highly recommended for anyone wanting a simple introduction to the Buddhist practice or anyone who needs help curbing overwhelming emotions. It's life-changing. ( )

Not a bad, simple overview but felt it a little superficial and anecdotal ( )

Excellent for a beginner struggling with the process ( )
