Conversations with Joseph Goldstein, one of today's most renowned meditation teachers who taught ABC news anchor Dan Harris (author of 10% Happier) to meditate, on the topic of integrity.
Creating a Life of Integrity is our personal trainer for strengthening our integrity muscles. When we don't speak or act from our own sense of integrity, we feel lousy. Find out how you can live with more integrity--and subsequently more joy--as you follow these lively conversations between Joseph Goldstein, a founder of the modern mindfulness movement, and Gail Stark, a businesswoman and his student and friend of twenty-five years. As Joseph and Gail unpack the components of integrity--generosity, virtue, renunciation, wisdom, courage, patience, truthfulness, resoluteness, loving-kindness, and equanimity--we discover each is a step on a path that transports us to an empowered place of clarity, commitment, and, consequently, more joy. As we strengthen and weave these qualities into our daily lives they become our trusted first response in a world that needs our integrity now. "A lovely, practical, intimate, and wise book. Read and you can enjoy an intimate conversation with a great teacher, and learn how to lovingly refine the study your own mind."--Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with HeartAuthor Biography
