Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of 108 haiku poems to heighten awareness and deepen our appreciation for the ordinary in everyday life Haiku, the Japanese form of poetry written in just three lines, can be miraculous in its power to articulate the profundity of the simplest moment—and for that reason haiku can be a useful tool for bringing us to a heightened awareness of our lives. Here, the poet Patricia Donegan shares her experience of the haiku form as a way of insight that anyone can use to slow down and uncover the beauty of ordinary moments. She presents 108 haiku poems—on themes such as honesty, transience, and compassion—and offers commentary on each as an impetus to meditation and as a key to unlocking the wonder in what we find right before us.

Download or read book My Thoughts Are Clouds written by Georgia Heard and published by Roaring Brook Press. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A poetry collection that both illustrates what mindfulness is and encourages young, growing minds to be present, from poet and educator Georgia Heard, with art by Isabel Roxas. Poets have long observed the world in a mindful way. They point out beauty we might have missed, draw our attention to our inner thoughts, and call us to see our society in new ways. But as daily life become more and more chaotic, children grow distracted. According to the CDC, 9.4% of children have ADHD and 7% have anxiety/depression. And these numbers continue to climb. As treatment doctors recommend healthy eating, physical activity, plenty of sleep, and mindfulness techniques. Georgia Heard is a poet and educator—and she has long had her own meditation practice. In My Thoughts Are Clouds, she uses poetry to demonstrate what mindfulness is and gives kids—and their parents and teachers—accessible ways to learn mindfulness tools.

Book Synopsis English Haiku by : Jonathan Wainwright
Download or read book English Haiku written by Jonathan Wainwright and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-03 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haiku is a traditional form of Japanese poetry, typically written about nature. Pronounced High-Koo, it is derived from the Japanese word Hokku meaning 'Starting verse.'Traditionally, Haikus comprise 3 lines and are intended to be read in one breath. The first and last lines have 5 syllables and the middle line 7 syllables, hence 17 syllables in all. However, because the English concept of syllables doesn't exist the same way in the Japanese language, there are subtle differences.Because Haikus are such short poems, they are usually written about things which are recognisable to the reader and strictly speaking about nature. English Haiku can follow the traditional Japanese rules, but sometimes are less strict, particularly regarding the number of syllables and subject matter.This e-book contains over a hundred haiku I have written about modern times: from Covid 19, to the English NHS system of healthcare, to fear and hero's, to transport and rubbish

Book Synopsis Mindfulness and Money by : Dominic J. Houlder
Download or read book Mindfulness and Money written by Dominic J. Houlder and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From two leading instructors in business and Buddhism comes a fresh approach to making peace with your finances and creating true abundance. It may seem contradictory that Buddhist teachers Kulananda and Dominic Houlder have also been highly successful in the business arena, but they have learned that Buddhist teachings do not require a life of poverty, and can indeed go hand-in-hand with wealth and prosperity. Mindfulness and Money brings to light the teachings of Buddha as they apply to the money part of life, and shares the stories of others who have found the Buddhist path to freedom, creativity, and abundance. Using the Buddhist Wheel of Life as a starting point, the authors explore the mechanism by which desire for money and material things is confining, and how mastery of desire can free us to live peacefully with our finances. Kulananda and Houlder offer five precepts for living on the Path of Abundance, including kindness, generosity, contentment, honesty, and awareness. Through prescriptive meditations, reflections, and exercises, we can begin to earn and spend more purposefully–the key to finding financial peace, whatever one’s income. An enlightening combination of practical wisdom and spirituality, Mindfulness and Money is a valuable asset for all seekers.
Download or read book Mindful Haiku written by Philip C Green and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-27 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mindful Haiku - Micropoetry, Shinrin-Yoku And Mindfulness In Nature, is a collection of Haiku with associated photographs, to celebrate the power of nature and to show how nature can help us make our way through life. I will aim to help you find meaning, awareness, insight, purpose, and connection through nature via techniques such as mindfulness and Shinrin-Yoku (Forest Bathing). When we are out in nature, we sometimes forget to slow down and really take notice - to focus on the details, to use all of our senses and be present in the moment. We can use mindfulness to help us pay attention, without judgment and appreciate as all the wonders unfold before us. We can also use mindfulness in nature and forest bathing to reduce mental fatigue. Our brains can reset itself from the everyday directed mental attention that causes us to be distracted and mentally flighty. Hopefully, this little book can help you discover or indeed rediscover nature in a different and more mindful way - and more importantly discover your own true nature.
