Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Buddhist teachings and meditation offer a roadmap to help college students and others in early adulthood incorporate mindfulness into their lives as a means of facing the myriad struggles unique to this stage of life. Early adulthood is filled with intense emotions and insecurity. What if you never fall in love? What if you can't find work you’re passionate about? You miss home. You miss close friends. You’re lost in the noise of how you think you should be living and worried about wasting what everyone says should be the best years of your life. What Now? shares mindfulness practices to help twentysomethings learn to identify and accept these feelings and respond—not react—to painful and powerful stimuli without pushing them away or getting lost in them. This is not about fixing oneself or being "better." Readers are encouraged to embrace themselves exactly as they are. You are already completely whole, completely loveable, completely worthy. What Now? shares practices that help us to wake up to this fact. This uniquely tumultuous developmental period is a time when many first live away from home and engage in all kinds of experimentation—with ideas, substances, relationships, and who we think we are and want to be in the world. Yael Shy shares her own story and offers basic meditation guides to beginning a practice. She explores the Buddhist framework for what causes suffering and explores ideas about interconnection and social justice as natural outgrowths of meditation practice.

Help God To Help You

Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Does God Need Our Help? 'God is the Almighty, He can do whatever He wants, then why would He need our help?' This is what you may ask. But the reality is that God does need our help. Nature works according to definite laws. Though the laws of nature have been created by God, yet God too cannot break these laws. One of the laws of nature is: 'Ask and you shall receive.' If you don't ask for help, God will not be able to help you. Therefore, if you want help from Him, you will have to learn to ask for guidance from Him. By asking guidance from God, you are helping Him to help you. In order to receive guidance, give a green signal to God, i.e. say, 'I am ready to receive the answers to my prayers. I am prepared to decode the messages sent by You.' Your signal will be green (effective) only when you have a smile on your face, when you do everything with a smile, and when your mission statement of life is: Whatever you do, do it with a smile. This green signal will help the divine guidance to reach you. Thus, what is needed is just your help and your laughter.
