10 Best Books to Read for Mindfulness!

Just so you know, Mindfulness is a type of meditation in which you focus on being intensely aware of what you're sensing and feeling in the moment, without interpretation or judgment. Here is the 10 best books to read for mindfulness.


1. 10% Happier by Dan Harris

Modern society does a fantastic job of pushing us into a continual state of stress and worry. This, to no one’s surprise, has serious consequences on our physical and mental well-being. Dan Harris masterfully shares the story of his own life and how meditation has helped him live with more compassion and fulfillment.

Dan is the perfect example of just your regular, non-spiritual guy who discovers that meditation doesn’t have to greatly alter your life – sometimes, it just makes your current one much happier. I found this book extremely relatable to my use of meditation and would be a great book for anyone interested in meditation, but skeptical of the real-world benefits.

2. Waking Up by Sam Harris

Admittedly, Sam’s book is slightly harder to comprehend for someone who has never practiced mindfulness before, but I still feel that it is an incredible book to read early on in your journey.

Sam basically explains that our concept of the “self” is false and keeps us stuck in a dream-like realm of discontent and misdirected thinking. By practicing meditation, we can “wake up” from this state and actually live life, rather than sputtering along on autopilot.

Sam is a thought leader in mindfulness for a reason, and his book is a must-read for many.

3. The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer

We all have an inner monologue that rambles non-stop, all day, every day, like clockwork. This voice is always talking, changing how we pilot our lives, and almost never shutting off. The first step towards a life of freedom and peace is realizing that this is going on, because then you can pause, step back, and view your thoughts from a totally new perspective.

The Untethered Soul is my most recommended book for anyone looking to get out of their own head, transcend their ego, and get a handle on their anxiety in the process. This was the book that helped launch my own journey of self-exploration and mindfulness.

My favorite lesson from this book (that becomes clear quite early) is that your thoughts do not define you, they’re simply outputs of an always active mind.

4. Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn

While mindfulness may be an ancient Buddhist practice, it certainly isn’t just for Buddhists. Mindfulness is all about waking up to the world around you and living in peace and harmony with oneself.

In this book, Jon Kabat-Zinn provides chapter-by-chapter glimpses into the many different facets of mindfulness. It’s a practice about letting go, being non-judgmental, kind, and embracing the present moment.

In a way that can’t be explained, this book will help you become more comfortable in your own skin.

5. The Headspace Guide to Meditation and Mindfulness: How Mindfulness Can Change Your Life in Ten Minutes a Day by Andy Puddicombe

The Headspace app changed my life, and without a doubt has changed the lives of many others as well. To this day, I still find myself going through its beginner 10-day mindfulness challenge as a friendly reminder of the principles, and for the fact that just 10 minutes of meditating can make a world of difference.

Headspace’s founder, Andy Puddicombe, is a former Buddhist monk with many years of experience teaching the practice. Andy began his meditative journey much like the rest of us – a regular, busy guy with everyday problems and stress. He does a marvelous job of introducing the topic of mindfulness with stories from his own life and helping people understand just how powerful 10 minutes per day can be.

6. The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz

The Four Agreements isn’t your traditional book about mindfulness. Instead of ramming the practice of meditation down your throat, Don Miguel Ruiz very gently provides a guide to living life and staying mindful.

Don brilliantly introduces ancient Toltec wisdom into our modern world. The Four Agreements he discusses are: be impeccable with your word, don’t take anything personally, don’t make assumptions, and always do your best.

His ideas offer a formidable code of conduct that no one can disagree with. I’m convinced that making this book required reading in any level of education would make the world a much better place for everyone.

Be warned, this is a book that you will want to carry around with you everywhere. It’s that good.

7. Mindfulness: An Eight-Week Plan for Finding Peace in a Frantic World by Mark Williams and Danny Penman

Most of the books on this list offer incredible insight and wisdom into the world of mindfulness, but few offer a step-by-step plan to get there.

Mark Williams and Danny Penman are at the forefront of Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), the main topic of this book. Their plan incorporates a series of simple, powerful practices that you can start doing today to disrupt the merry-go-round of exhaustion, stress, anxiety, and depression.

With science as a cornerstone of their methodologies, it’s safe to say that this stuff works. This book was a surprisingly good read and highly recommended for anyone looking for a hand to hold through their journey.

8. The Power of Now by Eckart Tolle

What kind of mindfulness book list would this be without Eckart Tolle? While Tolle would most likely agree that there isn’t anything new about his ideas in The Power of Now, he certainly has a way of revealing them in a different light.

The message Tolle delivers is that of living “in the now” – a concept many adept mindfulness practitioners understand, but one that beginners don’t quite comprehend. Tolle’s enthusiasm and clear, compassionate voice is what makes this book stand out and change the lives of those who read it.

9. Full Catastrophe Living by Jon Kabat-Zinn

Before a reader of mine recommended this book to me, I had never heard of it. But Jon Kabat-Zinn made this list twice for a good reason. Full Catastrophe Living is for everybody from the sick to the healthy, young or old, and everything in-between.

It’s an amazing book on meditation and explaining the power of mind-body medicine. Since it provides many different types of meditative therapies, it doesn’t go super in-depth, which means it’s the perfect introductory book for anyone whose interest has been peaked.

For anyone looking for alternative ways to cope with stress and deal with pain, Full Catastrophe Living is worth the read.

Thank you truly for the recommendation, you know who you are.

10. The Mindful Path Through Worry and Rumination: Letting Go of Anxious and Depressive Thoughts by Sameet Kumar

Probably the only “sleeper” book on this list, but one that deserves more attention. As someone who’s struggled in the past with worry, rumination, and obsessive thoughts, I wish I had come across this book sooner.

Kumar’s book is highly relatable to people on all different paths of life. Its main focus is on mindfulness and disrupting the destructive tendencies of your thoughts.

It’s a good book to read (and re-read) for stepping out of your constant states of worry and regret. It’s also a great recommendation for anyone struggling with depression or broader negativity.

Walk in a more mindful path. Be like a monk. Wiser, stronger, better.

10 Best Parenting Books To Read

When it comes to family life, everyone strives to figure out how the relationship between parents and children can become ideal. Maybe these book list will help you have that wonderful idea how to become the best parent there is. 




1.   Your Two-Year-Old by Louise Bates Ames & Frances L     This is book is part of a series of the best little books about child development. They’re all actually little — about 150 pages (a third of which are black-and-white photo illustrations of children from the ‘70s) — and follow the same general formula: here’s what you’re dealing with, here’s what tends to work, isn’t it fascinating!, do what works and it will get better soon. I goddamn love them.

2.     All Joy and No Fun by Jennifer SeniorThis book is a great answer to every time you’ve ever wondered, “Is it just me, or is being a parent bad in a very particular way right now?” A leading question, maybe, but Senior has convinced me that the answer is “Yes.” Inspiring either a consoling self-forgiveness or a maddening fire under one’s ass (both, one hopes), former New York staff writer Senior winningly leads us through the world of modern parenthood with both depth and breadth, in a voice that is insightful, relatable, and genuinely searching.


 3.     Simplicity Parenting by Kim John PayneThis book is a classic parent troll, so you’ll need to be ready for that. Read it at a time of emotional fortitude, ideally at a moment when you think to yourself, “Okay, things are about to get easier soon. I feel like I can finally catch my breath. Is there a man somewhere who can Kondo my family life?” (The author’s first name is Kim and yes, I felt betrayed when I realized he was in fact an Australian man and not a Scandinavian woman sent to share the gospel of toys made from natural wood.) 


4.     No Bad Kids by Janet Lansbury A couple of my mom friends and I simply refer to her as “the guru” and I still don’t know if we’re joking or not. Her popular books are self-published compendiums of some of her best blog posts (when I filled out the contact form on her website to request a review copy, I got a prompt reply from Michael L., who introduced himself as “Janet’s husband and Mailroom Supervisor”). Lansbury’s general approach or “philosophy” is that we should treat children with respect, and, whenever possible, try to meet them where they are.

 5.     Siblings Without Rivalry by Adele Faber and Elaine MazlishThe way we argue, what we value, our level of competitiveness, the amount and kind of guilt we possess — so much of our identities are determined by the crapshoot of sibling dynamics. This proved to be fertile ground for Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish, the authors of How to Talk So Kids Will Listen … The authors’ book on siblings has the same instructive cartoons, the same entertaining group-therapy frame, and a similar unwillingness to sacrifice depth at the altar of the digestible message.


6.     Queenbees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman This book served as the inspiration and source material for Tina Fey’s Mean Girls. Whether that serves as disclaimer or recommendation is up to you. Queen Bees seems to meet teens on their level, which is probably what makes it so effective (if not occasionally alarmist, or maybe that’s the super Christian nerd in me talking?).

  7.     NurtureShock by Po Bronson and Ashley Merryman This book is the ultimate compendium of magazine-style counterintuitive parenting-trend pieces. “Why our instincts about children can be so off the mark,” its marketing copy argues, promising real data and the always-beguiling shattering of conventional wisdom. I don’t mean to sound dismissive, as NurtureShock is both a great read and manages to make its points without trafficking in parental anxiety. If anything, the book — with chapters on kids needing more sleep, being praised too much, labeled gifted too early — seems to argue that it’s our own misplaced agita that causes problems. 
 8.    Supernormal by Meg JayIf you haven’t noticed or made fun of them yet, parenting culture’s trendiest desired attributes are GRIT and RESILIENCE. Grit is, of course, the goofier of the two, evocative of both dirt and a southern breakfast food. But who doesn’t want to be resilient? Who doesn’t want their children to be?With this book, longtime clinical psychologist Meg Jay challenges us to interrogate our assumptions about resilience, to grapple with what’s really going on inside a kid we want to praise for overcoming adversity. Children adapt well, almost too well in some cases, and the coping skills that help children survive may be the ones preventing them from relating as adults.

9.     The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk This one is not about parenting per se, but my experience with childbirth left me mildly traumatized in ways I only truly understood after reading this book. I feel better for having read it, and better equipped, as a parent and a citizen, to see the way trauma — beyond the buzzword — is at work in so many of our experiences.

10.The Philosophical Baby by Alison GopnikRead Gopnik’s earlier book as A reminder that children give as much as they get, and not just because they’re cute. Gopnik brings us on a tour of the awakening consciousness of babies and shows us how much we can learn about the essential questions of human nature by looking to the small, screaming friends we are trying our best to keep alive.

There is no such thing as a perfect parent but you can be the best one for your child if you'd want to.

10 Best Meditation Books To Read This Year!

Whether you’re new to meditation, are seeking to deepen your practice or simply curious about mindful living, there’s a book in here for you.

While meditation can be learnt through workshops, guided meditation tracks, and instructional videos, there’s a certain deepness of understanding and more nuanced experience that can come only from books.


1. Making Space by Thich Nhat Hanh
Making Space is the perfect book for beginner meditators.
In this short read, Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh breaks down (in a very simple way) how to best establish a home meditation practice. It includes a ton of creative practices and suggestions as well – that stretch beyond just simply sitting in meditation.

2. 10% Happier by Dan Harris
Unlike many of the books on this list, this one is written for pure skeptics by someone who was once a hard skeptic himself – ABC News anchor Dan Harris.
If you feel you still have a bit of skepticism in you, or you did at one point and would just feel more at home listening to someone like you, this is the perfect read.

3. Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind by Shunryu Suzuki
Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind is a classic not just in the meditation space, as Shunryu Suzuki’s popularization of the “beginner’s mind” principle has made it catch on in other spaces, such as business and art.

4. The Miracle of Mindfulness by Thich Nhat Hanh
The Miracle of Mindfulness was the book that started it all for me. With this, Thich Nhat Hanh would introduce me to a practice that transformed my life and rid me of my constant anxiety. For that reason alone, it would get a place on this list.
However, The Miracle of Mindfulness is more than just sentimental. It’s the classic introduction to mindfulness meditation and it does a better job of describing what it means to live meditatively — and what that can do for us as human beings — than virtually any other book I’ve ever read.

5. Out of Your Mind by Alan Watts
This is a bit of a unique one. One, because it’s technically an audiobook (hey, I’m allowed to bend the rules once). Two, because it’s less about teaching the practice of meditation and more about handling many of the things that will happen during your practice and to you as a result of a deep and consistent meditation practice.

6. What is Zen by Alan Watts
Another from Watts, this is the clearest and most straightforward explanation of the depth of meditation practice I’ve found.
However, keep in mind that anything by Watts is generally a little advanced. Nothing crazy, just make sure you’ve been meditating for a few months and are serious about getting the most from a long-term meditation practice. If you fit that classification, you’ll get so much from this book.

7. Mindfulness in Plain English by Bhante Henepola Gunaratana
Mindfulness in Plain English is a unique guide because it breaks down the topic of meditation in a way that none of the other books on this list do. Perhaps for this reason, it’s considered by many to be the quintessential mindfulness meditation guide.

8. Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn
Wherever You Go, There You Are is the perfect “modern” meditation guide from the ‘father of modern mindfulness’, Jon Kabat-Zinn.
Like 10% Happier, this book is perfect for anyone who is a bit turned off by the heavier Buddhist-themed speak or anything with a “spiritual” perspective to it. By no means is it shallow, as Kabat-Zinn is a deep meditator himself, but it’s more welcoming for a newcomer who might be turned off by such themes

9. Not Always So by Shunryu Suzuki
This next book is virtually unknown, despite the fact that it’s by the same author as one of the great meditation classics I covered earlier– Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind.
However, unlike Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind, this isn’t an epic love letter to meditation and the quintessential Zen meditation guide, it’s more about little insights for and about meditation practice and how that applies to living everyday life. For that reason, I’ve found it to be the perfect compliment to Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind.

10. Meditation in Action by Chogyam Trungpa
Written by the late Tibetan Buddhist teacher, Chogyam Trungpa, Meditation in Action goes deeper into the practice of meditation in an interesting way that makes it stand out from the rest of the books on this list.

Check out our Slim Support Jelly which can help you in your weight loss and achieving your fat loss goals – fast and naturally!
Using it in combination with our proprietary blend of TCM herbs, Vermilion Slim Support Jelly will help ignite 3 pathway of fat-burning by revving up metabolism, regulating blood glucose and decreasing lipid levels leading to less water-retention and  sustainable weight loss.

The sisters respond in very different ways to the occupation with one ultimately joining the Resistance and putting her life on the line for freedom.

3. THE BOYS IN THE BOAT: NINE AMERICANS AND THEIR EPIC QUEST FOR GOLD AT THE 1936 BERLIN OLYMPICS BY DANIEL JAMES BROWN

4. THE IMMORTAL LIFE OF HENRIETTA LACKS BY REBECCA SKLOOT
Henrietta Lacks, known by scientists as HeLa, was a poor Southern tobacco farmer whose cells were taken without her knowledge and ultimately became one of the most important tools in modern medicine. The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture are still alive today, even though Henrietta Lacks passed away more than 60 years ago. Skloot takes the reader on an extraordinary journey, breaking down hard to understand scientific principles, and leading the reader to question the origins and ethics of modern medicine.

5. THE SWEETNESS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PIE BY ALAN BRADLEY

The main character is an 11-year-old amateur sleuth and chemist who uses her skills to clear her father of a murder charge. Although the main character is a child, the style and tone of writing and the powerful character development makes this a great read for anyone who loves vintage traditional crime novels.

6. THE HELP BY KATHRYN STOCKETT
Exploring an era that will be familiar to most seniors, The Help is a story of African-American women in the South, the white women that they worked for, and the children they helped raise. Hilarious and heartbreaking at the same time, The Help showcases cultural and socioeconomic differences in 1962 America but is truly a timeless story about the rules we follow and the ones we refuse to follow.

7. THE DEVIL IN THE WHITE CITY: MURDER, MAGIC AND MADNESS AT THE FAIR THAT CHANGED AMERICA BY ERIK LARSON
