STAR WARS THE JEDI MIND

(W) Amy Ratcliffe (A) Christina Chung (CA) Na

The philosophical tenets that inform the Jedi Code are focused on peace, knowledge, serenity, and balance, and are applicable not just in a galaxy far, far away, but also in our own galaxy, here and now. ("Trust your feelings." - Obi-Wan Kenobi.) This accessible pop culture spin on mindfulness takes quotations and lessons from Star Wars and pairs them with practices such as breathing, posture, and meditation to help readers engage them in their own lives. ("Do or do not. There is no try." - Yoda) Twenty color illustrations illuminate the book's thoughtful advice, making it the perfect gift for Star Wars fans looking for balance or seekers of inner calm open to learning from the Jedi Masters.
