Synopsis

Embracing emptiness, staying open, finding calm

With compassion and insight, Thomas Moore offers a compelling case for an easier, lighter way of moving through life by experiencing the peace, calm, and openness of emptiness. Through ancient and modern stories, Moore gently shows that our constant multitasking may not be getting us
anywhere, and that emptiness is not a lack but an invitation that can be our greatest teacher. A daily awareness and appreciation of the quiet spaciousness in our world and our own lives is not a retreat from reality but a rich and full welcome to all that is most meaningful and real.

Goodreads review by Scheherenata

All I can say is that the author’s work keeps me sane, and this book is no exception. Thank you. P.S. A personal reflection on silence. I am not a stranger to silent retreats and walks in the woods. However, all of that seems trivial now in perspective of the most recent events. There has been covid......more
