How to focus / Thich Nhat Hanh ; [with sumi ink drawings by Jason DeAntonis].
"The distractions of modern life vie for our attention, pulling us in many directions and interfering with our ability to focus. We are losing our capacity to concentrate, and with it our ability to be fully present, to have sovereignty over our life, and to be at our best for ourselves, each other, and the world. In inspiring passages and simple yet profound meditations, Thich Nhat Hanh guides us in reclaiming our capacity for concentration and insight, so we can live with intention and clarity." -- Back cover.
Presents meditations to cultivate the power of concentration to achieve insight and understanding.
