Insightful and practical.

Full of information including the background of Buddhism, as well as useful tools and exercises we can all use today. I learnt about Siddhartha Gautama and his lessons as well as many insights from other acclaimed Buddhist teachers. There is information about Buddhist training, the four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Path to enlightenment, several types of meditation and breathing techniques and more.
The book addresses expectations often felt by women in today’s world and how to deal with these and manage them by realising your authentic self.
It is a book written for women as the title suggests, however this book really isn’t only for women. It’s the most instructional book on Buddhism and Buddhist techniques that I’ve read.
