With gentle anecdotes, simple Buddhist wisdom and practical exercises, he shows us how to live mindfully so that all the internal chatter ceases, and we are left with the eloquent sound of silence.This gift of silence doesn't require hours upon hours of silent meditation or an existing practice of any kind.

With mindfulness comes stillness--and the happiness and well-being we long for. Through silence, Thich Nhat Hanh reveals, we are free to hear, to see-- and just be.
