This series of essays on Buddhist practice shows how simple exercises, reflections and meditations can awaken us to the magic of being fully present in each moment of our lives.
How often do we have no time for reflection? Or little time to care for others, or even ourselves? Adrift in our lives, we are pulled further and further away from a sense of who we are. Paramananda speaks directly to our hearts about what is truly important to us, whether we are making a cup of tea or sitting at the bedside of a dying friend. Using simple exercises, reflections and meditations, we can awaken to the magic of being fully present in each moment of our day-to-day activities. Paramananda draws on his experience as a hospice worker and his many years as a Buddhist meditation teacher in both an imaginative and down-to-earth way. He offers us courage, kindness and joy in our search for meaning.

Born John Wilson in London, Paramananda was curious about Asian ideas but it was not until the death of his father that his interest in Buddhism was aroused. Ordained in the Western Buddhist Order in 1985, he has been teaching meditation, Buddhism and body awareness full-time in San Francisco and London since then.
