Mindfulness: Lessons To Learn Before Going To Bed - Paperback

by Barrack Onyango (Translator), Dr P Costa (Author)

Imagine reading a book to help you fall asleep.... Did you know that your mind is most relaxed at the time you prepare to go to bed? This is also the moment when it is at its most receptive state and best able to assimilate information. Your night will end up disturbed and cumbersome if you go to sleep weighed down by the burdens of daily life.
On the other hand, your sleep will be peaceful and you will be well rested if you go to bed with a light head. The main aim of this book is thus to offer you short, simple stories and tales that will help you to forget for a moment the stresses of the world, from others, as well as your own.
The purpose of these tales is to take you back to experiences that, due to the demands of modern life, are most of the time pushed to the back of the mind.
Deliberate efforts have been made for the positive impacts of this book to be as close to our real lives as possible: the fears, all sorts of temptations, including the burdens of daily life that hang over our shoulders. There is always this quiet inner voice that does not leave us at peace.
To sum it up, there are so many underlying mental processes that contribute to the "rot" in our lives.
Fortunately, there are many positive illustrations for giving the mind a state of calm and tranquility, and which have enabled us to better understand these processes that otherwise would tear us apart.
