Filled with powerful but easily accessible concepts and exercises, Present Moment Awareness shows readers how they can drop their emotional baggage, calm their worries about the future, and start enjoying the peace and joyfulness that can only be found in the now.This 20th Anniversary Edition includes a new foreword from the author and opportunity to use the author's "Focus Tool", free download included in book."Buddha taught that one moment of total awareness is one moment of freedom and enlightenment. Present Moment Awareness clearly and successfully provides us with authentic tools, exercises, reflection, and practices to access the awakened heart and mind inherent in us all."— LAMA SURYA DAS, author of Awakening the Buddha Within"Shannon Duncan has taken major concepts from ancient traditions and modern psychology and distilled them into an easy to understand guide to awareness. His book makes these often nebulous and difficult to understand concepts available to anyone desiring personal and spiritual growth."— ROGER JAHNKE, OMD, author of The Healer Within"In the tradition of contemplative experience from all great sages, Shannon Duncan gives as primer for greater awareness in our lives.... To be who we are is the point of life. This book is wonderful help in achieving that goal."— BROTHER WAYNE TEASDALE, author of The Mystic Heart "Like taking a mini-spiritual retreat, this exhilarating read, with doable exercises for challenging your beliefs, has you rediscovering yourself in the timelessness of the now. It sets you free to live the truly good life."— MARCELLA BAKUR WEINER, PH.D., author/editor of Psychotherapy and Religion: Many Paths, One Journey
