This Works: How to Use Mindfulness to Calm the Hell Down and Just Be Happy

Former investment advisor turned committed Buddhist shares a simple introduction to the deep wisdom and transformative practice of mindfulness.

Everyone is talking about mindfulness, but how does it actually work and how can it help you?

Mindfulness is a simple yet radical practice that can completely transform your life. Paddy Brosnan worked for many years as an investment advisor but felt trapped in a cycle of anxiety and anger. When he began practising mindfulness every day, he found that his relationships became more profound, his interactions with others more honest and his daily frustrations and anxieties simply vanished. In other words, mindfulness helped him calm down, and he became truly happy.

This Works is the collection of tools and exercises that Paddy teaches in his workshops and events, and includes examples of everyday mindfulness from his own family life. It shows you that literally anyone can learn to meditate, and you don't have to become a Buddhist monk to be truly zen. Through simple daily exercises, you'll learn that mindfulness is not something you do, but something you are.

Or, put simply, mindfulness can help you be truly happy.
