A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

'Breathing brings the secret joy of meditation to you. You become

joyful, fresh and tolerant and everyone around you will benefit.'

The Sutra on the Full Awareness of Breathing is one of the three most essential

teachings of the Buddha. In Breathe! You Are Alive, scholar, poet and Zen master

Thich Nhat Hanh unfolds this core teaching, showing how to apply it to

everyday life. He explains the methods of conscious breathing that are presented

in the sutra and offers exercises for practicing those methods today. Moreover, his

engaging commentary shows the profound nourishment that can be available to

us when we slow down and get in touch with our breathing. Breathe! You Are

Alive shows how we all begin to take in peace and happiness with each and

every breath.
