“With his unique combination of clarity, humility, humor, and insight, Mark has written a perfect book with which to start a meditation practice, or if you’re a longtime meditator, a perfect book to help dissolve that imaginary boundary between ‘practice time’ and the rest of your life. You can feel Mark’s experiential wisdom coming through each page and into your own practice—or, rather, your entire life. I really love this book!”

– Jaimal Yogis, author of Saltwater Buddha and All Our Waves Are Water

“Through personal and funny stories Mark makes accessible the path to beginning to integrate meditation into a way of well-being in our daily life.”

– Koshin Paley Ellison, author of Wholehearted: Slow Down, Help Out, Wake Up

“Friendly, simple, and wise words for those who would like to bring a little light and kindness into their daily lives.”

– Ben Connelly, Soto Zen priest, secular mindfulness teacher, and author of Mindfulness and Intimacy
