Six acclaimed teachers and visionaries show us how mindfulness practice can enhance our communication styles and foster deeper, more authentic connection within all of our relationships. What, exactly, is mindfulness? It's a "baseline" of awareness and non-resistance that you can build on the cellular level. Why practice it? Through mindfulness meditation, you rewire your neural pathways to calm yourself in any situation, better manage your emotions, amplify your attention and presence, gain insight into "unsolvable" problems, make wiser decisions, and much more.

Do you feel at home right now? Or do you sense a hovering anxiety or uncertainty, an underlying unease that makes you feel just a bit uncomfortable, a bit distracted and disconnected from those around you? In The Road Home, Ethan Nichtern, a senior teacher in the Shambhala Buddhist tradition, investigates the journey each of us takes to find where we belong.
