Vedic Mindfulness: An Ancient Path to Happiness and Inner Resilience

Vedic Mindfulness: An Ancient Path to Happiness and Inner Resilience offers a clear, experiential guide that reconnects mindfulness with its roots in the Vedic tradition. Moving beyond stress relief and focus, it presents mindfulness as a way of being—one that refines attention, deepens acceptance, and awakens steady awareness. Structured as a journey of self-inquiry, the book helps you step off autopilot, rediscover the power of pause, and cultivate lasting wellbeing. Drawing on Upanishadic wisdom, karma yoga (skilful action without attachment), and jnana yoga (self-knowledge), it turns everyday activities—walking, eating, working, relating—into opportunities for living meditation. Through stories, metaphors, and practical exercises, you learn to meet life’s highs and lows with equanimity and compassion. Written for both beginners and experienced practitioners, this is not a quick fix but a grounded path to resilience, meaning, and present-moment living. An academic appendix, ‘The Vedic Foundations of Secular Mindfulness’, offers research-based insight into the philosophical lineage behind modern mindfulness.
