Publisher's Summary

An inspiring audiobook that will help listeners rediscover their values and discover a way to truly live life to the fullest.

Each of us has an enormous capacity for love - a deep well of attention and care that we can offer to ourselves and others. With guidance that is both simple and wholly transformative, Koshin Paley Ellison, Zen teacher and psychotherapist, shows us how to uncover it: pay attention, be of service, and be with others.

With this inspiring and down-to-earth audiobook, drawn from the Zen precepts and illustrated with anecdotes from Koshin’s own life and practice, you’ll learn how to:

  • explore and investigate with your own core values,
  • identify the mental habits that could be unconsciously hurting yourself and others, and
  • overcome isolation.

Each section closes with a contemplation to help integrate the teachings into your life.

This audiobook is about getting back in touch with your values, so you can live energetically, authentically, and lovingly. This an invitation to close the gaps we create between ourselves and others-to wake up to ourselves and the world around us.

It’s time to live wholeheartedly.

Beautiful Book

I just purchased your audio book yesterday. I can feel the passion and truth in your voice as you narrate it. I have been wanting to listen to it for quite some time now but never got the chance. But now I finally bought it and I’m so taken aback by your honesty and love in your words. Thank you for showing the world what it is to “wake up.” Your story breaks my heart from being bullied for being gay. I too have been bullied for being part of the LGBTQ community. Your words are so soothing in a time like this. It makes me what to be a better person both within my Buddhist practice and in my daily life. Thank you for your words, your stories.

Thank you for cutting through the fog

A fabulous book about becoming more aware and awake with an honesty and bluntness that is refreshing. I will keep this book close and reread it over and over.
