Practical ways to grow through opening up and loving.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of Mindful Living (Audio Cassette)
I listened to this set of two tapes over, and over again while in my car. How can we practice being happy? How can we recognize joy in the mundane? What can we do every day to be more aware? Thich Nhat Hanh gives us a start. He offers us daily exercises and practices. Spiced with his personal stories and stories from the traditions of Buddhism he is engaging and entertaining. He offers the listener a more mindful, peaceful, and enriching way of living.

I now know how to hug!,

This review is from: The Art of Mindful Living (Audio CD)
I have given this 4 not 5 stars because of the sound quality. It was lovely to listen to, full of wonderful, sensible and I suppose really obvious, but little practised advice on how to live mindfully.
He has a lovely speaking voice and a great sense of humour. Many parts of this touched me but what stuck in my mind the most was the very last part, the part on hugging meditation. He teaches you how to really hug someone, no patting on the back, really hugging. I try to hug my children like this if they will stay still long enough!! But it has really helped me to appreciate them and the relatively short time we will have together.

A Magical Voice. . .,
By J Keistler "johnrktx@sbcglobal.net" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Art of Mindful Living (Audio Cassette)
I have worn out my cassette set of this performance, and am ordering another. Thich Nhat Hanh has remained the most accessible of the Buddhist teachers for many, many years now. For those who have only read his books, I would recommend purchase of these tapes. His voice on tape completes the efforts of his writing. It is a set to be returned to many times (that's how I've worn mine out!). I've found this set particularly enjoyable listening while driving. As usual, Hanh's parables help to make the complex, simple. Another virtue of this series is the illustration of Hanh's sense of humor! Though revered around the world, Hanh's humility and pleasure in interacting with people shines through on this series. It is obvious that he is the diametrical opposite to those religious teachers/leaders who set themselves above their followers. This tape series can serve as an excellent introduction to Thich Nhat Hanh's work, and hopefully would lead to exploring his large anthology of written work. 80 of 80 people found the following review helpful:

Illuminating And Entertaining,
By vincevna "vincevna" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Art of Mindful Living (Audio CD)
I have listened to many Dharma Talks (DT) from Thich Nhat Hanh and this one is one of my favourite. This DT is really fun to listen to. I have learned so much from Hanh's teachings and I am trying to practice and change myself for the benefit of my family.
What you will learn from this DT: * Samatha (Calm Meditation) and Vipassana (Insight Meditation) * Alayavijñana (Store Consciousness) and Manovijñana (Mind Consciousness) * 5 simple meditating exercises (In Out, Flower Fresh, Mountain Solid, Water Reflecting, Space Free) * Mindfulness in the context of the family * Communication between fathers and sons * How to deal with anger and hurt feelings * The 5 remembrances (Aging, Ill Health, Death, Separation, True Belonging) * True love vs. possessive love * Meditation for children * Inter-being, Impermanence, and much more Thich Nhat Hanh uses a lot of examples in this DT to help the listeners understand better Buddhism. I highly recommend this product to anyone regardless of their religion. 79 of 79 people found the following review helpful:
