Book Description

8 Mar 2007

'Absolute peace is available to you in this moment, now. You don't need to have anything else, nor do you need anything else to happen. Real contentment is not a state of mind to be found just on holiday, or when you achieve your goals, or when you get more stuff. It can only be found now, the way things are.'

This superbly clear, short and practical book explains how to become the master of each single moment. It's clearly aimed at those of us who are living too fast, are confused about life, who spend hours with our iPods, mobiles and laptops, or who never seem to have any mental space. It's life-changing, and very simple and its benefits include becoming less stressed, better organised, a more effective communicator and less frantic.

Review

"It's hard to overestimate how helpful this technique can be" (Bel Mooney Psychologies magazine )

"Boroson takes the mystery out of meditation" (Irish Independent )

"Small change...BIG difference...A truly helpful book" (Sarah Stacey You magazine )

"Having read several books about meditation, this one outdoes the others by far in its simplicity and results. ... Superbly written and well worth reading." (Kindred Spirit )

"Martin Boroson's fantastic book ... is all about learning to condense the practice of meditation into these fleeting moments. And about how, from a certain perspective, a sequence of fleeting moments are all we ever really have anyway." (Oliver Burkeman The Guardian )

Book Description

One of the best books on the market for attaining a moment's peace in an otherwise busy world

5.0 out of 5 stars One Minute Wonder! 15 Mar 2007
Format:Mass Market Paperback
As a one fingered typist, I'll make this brief. I love this book because:

a) Martin Boroson writes very well - it's like having a conversation with a good friend.

b) It's incredible what you can get from one minute.

c) In the nicest possible way, this book really is a One Minute Wonder!

5.0 out of 5 stars Short and effective 16 Feb 2008
By Francis Norton VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
There are less than 200 short-ish pages to the book, but as with anything of this kind you need to spend time doing, not just reading.

In this case the doing is very straightforward, consisting of a series of one-minute breathing/meditation exercises, which are explained as part of an articulate and interesting overall narrative.

A couple of weeks after buying this book and going through it intermittently on crowded commuter trains, I checked my blood pressure at home. Finding it rather above my trend, I did a "portable minute" and found my BP had come down to below trend. I've kept measuring the effect and typically my systolic rate comes down about 10 points, though both my diastolic and pulse rates remain about the same, going up or down a point or two.

I'm not passing this experience on in order to recommend the book as a cure for high blood pressure, but to point out that the effects of this easily-mastered technique are clearly not "just in the head".

I remain happily surprised at how many spare minutes there can be in even a hectic day, and what a bonus each can be.

5.0 out of 5 stars learning to savour each moment 23 April 2007
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Having read and bought many such books was delighted with this!!

And I continue to enjoy and start to really savour more 'moments' = as the author encourages me to practice and develop being mindful for a minute each day. Interesting how challenging that is - crazy!!! It can really make a difference right now........... try it!! Close your eyes, breathe in and out 4/5 times

I enjoyed the size of the book, just right to slip into a bag and be reminded of the practice wherever I am - a delight so that I can really have it as an ongoing tool in being more focussed in my life.
