Descriere
'Brian Draper is Britain's foremost popular spiritual thinker; he has no equals in linking the inner with the political and personal outer. This is a remarkably practical exploration of elusive yet core elements of our existence.' - Oliver James
The beauty of mindfulness is that it's incredibly simple both to 'get' and to practise. And the results - increasingly backed by neuro-scientific evidence - are priceless: calmness and reduced stress, more creativity, greater awareness, compassion. . . And yet there's a danger that mindfulness can be used in a purely consumerist and self-serving way to help people to become better adapted cogs in a still-toxic model of work and life.
Brian Draper challenges us to live not just mindfully but soulfully. Not merely to be less stressed, but to flourish, dynamically and creatively - to be present - through living intentionally and compassionately.
Recenzii
Brian Draper argues in Soulfulness that, beyond learning a few techniques for disconnecting from the real world, we need to learn to live not just mindfully but soulfully.
The author challenges us to live not just mindfully, but also soulfully.
Perhaps you've given mindfulness a go, but felt there must be something more?
Or you may have steered well clear, worried that you'd float off into a world that has nothing to do with everyday life.
The good news, says Brian Draper, is that beyond simply learning a few techniques, or disconnecting from the real world, we are invited to live not just mindfully but soulfully, too. Not merely to be less stressed, but to flourish, dynamically and creatively - to be present - through living intentionally and compassionately.
Join Brian on a journey into soul: to explore how the simplest but most profound benefits of mindfulness find common ground with the treasures of contemplative Christian practice, and lead to a more dynamic, engaged way to live your life.
Perhaps you've heard Brian Draper on BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day. It's a good indicator of what he tries to do: help people of all faiths and none to see the world from a creative and engaging spiritual perspective. He often writes for U2.com, and is a former editor of the Christian current affairs magazine Third Way. He is a writer, speaker, facilitator and retreat guide, and the author of Spiritual Intelligence, Less is More and most recently What Matters Most?
