“Imagine living a life fully present, open to receiving the gifts each day brings with open awareness and deep gratitude.  Laurie Cameron’s beautiful guide offers simple and fresh suggestions for developing such a mindful way of being in the world—exploring science-established formal approaches as well as informal ways we can create a meaningful and connected life at work, at home, and in loving relationships from romance to parenting.  Studies reveal how the health of our bodies–including the molecules the shape our physiological well-being as well as the structure of our brains– and the connections we have in our close relationships with others are greatly enhanced when we develop our minds to be open to present moment experience.  Research supported and profound yet practical, this inspiring book will bring insights, well-being and joy into the lives of those new to cultivating awareness as well as long-time practitioners in the art of awakening the mind.”
