The Practicing Mind: Bringing Discipline And Focus… af Thomas M. Sterner

Deals effectively with concepts such as present moment awareness and "beginner's mind." A decent introduction for those who haven't read widely on these topics, but doesn't add much for those who have. The author does provide some nice context on how he has applied these ideas in his own life, and I don't regret the 3 hour investment of time in living to the book, but I can't recommend it strongly to those who know something about these topics.

The Practicing Mind: Bringing Discipline and Focus… af Thomas M. Sterner

Not terrible but not great. Some relatively decent advice about mindfulness and focus but as with all books like this - just suggesting good courses of action very rarely leads to self improvement. Meditate more...focus more on what you are doing and will you be immersed in the process.....let go of your desire to attain goals......there we go, I have just summarised the whole book for you

The Practicing Mind: Bringing Discipline and Focus… af Thomas M. Sterner

I don't usually read self-help/improvement books, but this was a free listen on Audible (through Amazon Prime channels, I think), and I needed something in the background. Actually kind of enjoyed it however. I may try listening again sometime, just because there was a bit to absorb.

The Practicing Mind: Developing Focus and D… af Thomas M. Sterner

A folksy little tract on mindfulness, The Practicing Mind is about what one expects from a piano tuner who encourages formal exercises in moment-to-moment awareness without judgement. It could have been titled Music and Archery Lessons for the Budding Buddhist, without much loss. While its message is one I appreciate and Sterner is a reasonable writer, you are not going to get out of this book with at least one quote from a Star Wars character who, to our collective shock, is not Yoda. Sweet little book, all the same.… (mere)
