Straightforward instruction on integrating Zen Buddhist meditation practice into all aspects of your daily life.
American Zen Buddhist monk and teacher Claude AnShin Thomas distills decades of monastic study and experience into a practical guide for anyone interested in establishing a committed meditation practice--on and off the cushion. Applied Zen provides instruction on:
- Sitting meditation
- Walking meditation
- Working meditation
- Eating meditation
- Deep listening and mindful speech
- Creating a home altar
- Bowing
- Sleeping meditation
"Meditation doesn't have just one form," Claude AnShin writes. "It is not only something we do seated on a cushion or chair. It is a way of life." Applied Zen is a pithy, inspiring guide for readers seeking to establish or deepen their meditation practice.
