«We will learn to pay attention, to listen actively and to quiet the mind. Silence, says Thich Nhat Hanh, is the basis of joy and satisfaction." Shambhala Sun.

"Hanh's new title is an elegant contribution to contemporary Buddhist literature and one of the author's best works." Library Journal.

The practice of mindfulness has been praised by medicine and psychology as an effective tool to increase self-awareness and enjoy health and well-being. Now, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh guides us in the exercise of mindfulness using a resource that is as accessible as it is powerful: silence.

Living in a state of peace and fulfillment does not require long hours of meditation. Spiritual leader Thich Nhat Hanh shows us how a gesture as simple as silence can become a powerful tool of knowledge and harmony.

Like a radio that never goes off, our thoughts are always there, reliving events from the past or projecting anxiety and fear into the future. But the mind can be quiet. And, when it does, we begin to listen to our own inner voice.

Using techniques based on mindfulness and breathing, Thich Nhat Hanh teaches us to cultivate stillness in our daily lives. Because only in silence will we discover who we are and what our purpose in life is, which are the two keys to peace and happiness.
