Publisher's Summary

Beyond the meditation cushion, where do you ultimately find the profound clarity, presence, and simple joy of Zen? "Where it has always been - in everyday life," teaches Charlotte Joko Beck, "whether it's raising our kids, working in the office, or even cleaning the house." On Living Everyday Zen, this seminal voice in American Zen shares some of her hallmark teachings and insights from nearly 50 years of practice. Beck's ability to make the abstract concrete and accessible for anyone who engages in the practice distinguishes her from most other Zen teachers.

Enlightening Talks

How wonderful to hear this teacher speak. Such insight yet her talks also reveal surprising little attachments as with any master of mind. I wonder why she renounced the center she started in San Diego!

Unique

This zen recording of zen teachings is an intimate way to learn. I’ve read many zen books over the past 50+ years but Beck’s approach is unique. For me she nails it. I’d prefer if each section of the recordings of her speaking wasn’t introduced by flute & a voice that the producers choose to use. I sincerely feel it’s not what she would choose. But I didn’t remove star ratings because there are few recordings available of her speaking so I am grateful for what is made available.

Always clear

Joko Beck is always clear, and never lets anyone get away with anything. No bullshit.
