This book is based on the Buddhist teachings around mindfulness and all practices of the mind. Within the text, you will learn valuable information about how Buddhist teachings relate to mindfulness and how you can use them to leverage your inner purification, peace, and happiness.

Not all who wander are lost, but those who fail to practice mindfulness might be.

While it is not necessarily focused primarily on being happy, it is a powerful tool that people can use to create happiness in their life.
