These little Zen practices can bring so much serenity to your life." -- Francine Jay, bestselling author of The Joy of Less and Lightly " The Art of Simple Living makes the time-tested wisdom of the Buddha radically accessible by providing easy-to-follow yet profound practices that blend perfectly with, and are a natural part of, everyday life. It is an encouraging and straightforward companion for all who seek to amplify the inherent peace of their minds." -- Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche, author of Emotional Rescue and Rebel Buddha "This little treasure needs to be at every bedside.
