Mindfulness Is Better Than Chocolate: A Practical Guide to Enhanced Focus and Lasting Happiness in a World of Distractions by David Michie

This book is better than chocolate --Tal Ben-Shahar, New York Times best-selling author of Happier and Choose the Life You Want

Distractions are everywhere these days. Our thoughts drift to what we need to do tomorrow, or what went wrong yesterday. Even pleasurable things--like eating chocolate--don't receive our full attention. We miss out on joy that is easily within reach

In Mindfulness Is Better Than Chocolate, David Michie gives us the tools to rewire our brains for happiness. Mindfulness is paying attention to the present moment, deliberately and nonjudgmentally--and science has shown that those who practice it experience a wealth of benefits:

• Reduced stress
• Stronger immune systems
• More ease in breaking bad habits
• Improved self-esteem
• Enhanced mental clarity
• Sharper memory
• Overall well-being
. . . and better-tasting chocolate

As Michie explains, the way we see the world is our own creation. Drawing on both Buddhist teachings and contemporary science, he teaches us how to experience a mind free of stress and dullness. By harnessing the power of mindfulness and meditation, we can find everything we need to be fulfilled, productive, and content

David Michie is the author of the bestselling 'The Dalai Lama's Cat' series, as well as a variety of mindfulness, meditation, and Buddhism publications. 'Why Mindfulness is Better than Chocolate,' 'Hurry Up and Meditate,' and 'Buddhism for Busy People,' for example, are nonfiction titles. His books are available in over 30 countries and 25 languages. David is a mindfulness and meditation keynote speaker, corporate trainer, and coach. He has vast experience presenting to a wide range of people in a variety of settings in a number of countries.

In 2015, he founded Mindful Safaris, a company that takes groups to Africa, where he was born and raised, to encourage people to travel uncharted territory, both outer and inner, through a combination of daily game viewing tours and mindfulness training. David was raised in Zimbabwe, a country rich in African animals, but he always returned home to his corgi, Tudor, who had an ear that flopped instead of upright.
