MoreJoin renowned Zen Master and beloved teacher Thich Nhat Hanh for a year of mindfulness meditations. Each month pairs artful and expressive photographs of Thich Nhat Hanh and scenes from his teachings with text supporting the practice of mindfulness. The aim of these practices is to cultivate the art of living deeply in the present moment, for as this great and gentle teacher has written, "Our true home is in the present moment, and if we want to enter Heaven on Earth, we need only take one conscious step, and one conscious breath."
Acclaimed photographer Simon Chaput has spent many years photographing Thich Nhat Hanh and Plum Village, the meditation community he founded in southwestern France.
Sample caption:
When you breathe in, the air enters your body and calms all the cells of your body. At the same time, each "cell" of your breathing becomes more peaceful, and each "cell" of your mind becomes more peaceful. The three are one, and each one is all three. This is the key to meditation. Breathing brings the sweet joy of meditation to you. It is food. If you are nourished by the sweet joy of meditation, you become joyful, fresh and tolerant, and everyone around you will benefit from your joy.
-Breathe, You are Alive
