Praise

"Wise words to touch your heart, change your mind, and affect your actions—a path to view and experience life differently." —Mo Gawdat, former chief business officer of Google X, author of Solve for Happy

"Truly a book for our times. A poetic invitation to clarity and heartful living. Cuong Lu issues this call as someone who’s known the depths of trouble and pain and discovered relief and richness on the path. This voice is a much-needed balm in the heat of a divisive world." —Ralph De La Rosa, LCSW, author of Don't Tell Me to Relax and The Monkey Is the Messenger
