The Art of Falling Awake
From the Happiness PhD Project with Jackson Kerchis
The Art of Falling Awake: Meditations on Happiness, Mindfulness, and Radical Sanity — my second book is out now...
My mother tells me it's "pretty good" and several strangers on the internet (that's right, several!) have given me a thumbs up.
What if happiness is found in becoming intimate with your own life?
This isn’t another self-improvement book. It’s an invitation to slow down, contemplate the big questions, and experience the life you already have in a new way. Drawing on his time living as a Zen monk and researching happiness, Jackson offers short, thought-provoking essays to change the way you see yourself and the world.
With humor, insight, and a touch of irreverence, The Art of Falling Awake invites you on a journey of mindfulness, inquiry, and radical sanity.
Falling awake is about seeing even the most tedious, mundane, and meaningless frustrations of our lives as sacred: on fire with the same universal force that made the stars and cosmos.
And it’s about some other stuff too…
