“Sit” = “Meditate.” Here are clear, simple directions for anyone wanting to explore mindfulness meditation.

This first book in the Mindfulness Essentials series, a back-to-basics collection from world-renowned Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh, introduces everyone to the essentials of mindfulness practice. In short, single-paragraph chapters, Nhat Hanh shares detailed instructions, guided breathing exercises, and visualizations, as well as his own personal stories and insights.

This audiobook is perfect for those brand new to sitting meditation as well as for those looking to deepen their spiritual practice.

Thich Nhat Hanh (1926–2022) was a Vietnamese Zen master, poet, scholar, and peace activist who was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He wrote more than 100 books of poetry, fiction, and philosophy, with over a million copies in print. He survived three wars, persecution, and more than thirty years of exile. He was a Buddhist monk and the master of a temple in Vietnam, the lineage of which is traceable across two centuries to the Buddha himself.

John Sackville is an English actor and voice artist. He studied at St. Andrews University and the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art. He has since acted on stage and on camera and has narrated a number of audiobooks, computer games, documentaries, and commercials.

Reviews

“The accent is on practical exercises to learn to do whatever one does (waking up, washing dishes, drinking tea) with full presence and consciousness.”
