For over three decades, John Kehoe has earned worldwide recognition for his pioneering work in the field of Mind Power. He is a warm and energetic teacher, author, socially conscious individual, and proponent of the amazing human potential to transform the world and our lives with our thoughts.
John has lectured on every continent and his seminal book, Mind Power Into the 21st Century, has topped bestseller lists in over a dozen countries. His teachings relate directly to the powers held within every person to conclusively shape his or her destiny.
In 1975, John Kehoe withdrew to the wooded seclusion of the British Columbia wilderness to spend three years in intensive study and contemplation of the inner workings of the human mind. During this time, Kehoe forged the first straightforward and successful program for developing Mind Power. In 1978, he began traveling and teaching people the principals he had formulated, and the phenomenal success of his speaking tours soon grew to literally encompass the world.
Mind Power Into the 21st Century has sold millions of copies, and has become an international bestseller, translated and published in a multitude of languages including, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Bulgarian, Lithuanian, Italian, and Serbian. John has also written five other books, Money Success & You, A Vision of Power and Glory, The Practice of Happiness, Mind Power for Children and Quantum Warrior The Future Of the Mind.
Нещодавно дочитала книгу Джона Кехо «Практичний курс щастя». Якби мені треба було б коротко розказати, про що вона, то я б переповіла історію створення малюнків з піску, яка згадується у ній.
Отож, монахи (не менше шести), одягнені в помаранчеві накидки, щодня викладали різнокольорові піщинки, допоки картина поступово не набувала закінченого вигляду. Після чого її просто струшували (!) на землю. Сотні годин, витрачених на створення унікального твору! І все тому, що процес важливіший кінцевого результату.
У цьому всьому і є щастя або урок для тих, хто стрімголов мчить по життю у гонитві за успіхом.
This book has some wonderful, funny, inspiring stories embedded through his commentary. These life lessons seem very simple and rudimentary, but the simplicity of what John says mixed with your own self-reflecting throughout the book is a very special and much needed read, especially with the New Year. Thanks you mom for the book!
An amazing book! It made me realize it is not always about 'me' but how I reach out to others. It is a book I'll keep on my bookshelf and refer to it again when I need to get my priorities right.
This book is so worth reading. It really answers the question of how a homeless street begger in india can be happier then us who have so much more. Physically its a black hardcover book with gold writing on the edges and a gold book mark, it just looked like a lot of love was given to it in putting it together and as soon as I started reading it I felt a need to respect it so I read it slowly and turned the pages carefully, no book has ever had that effect on me. The book starts of with a question "what is the secret to happiness" and that question gets answered in a very satisfying 1 sentence at the end of the book however the middle of the book is all great reading from john kehoe's experiances building up to the end so when you finally read the secret you get it and its a wonderfull revelation. you might think why would I wanna read this guys book how would he know anything about happiness well John Kehoe before he became a best selling author had travelled over 60 countries and learned from monks, indian shamans, african healers and even aboriginal elders and to top it all off he has lived alone in the woods away from everything for three years to study and contemplate on the concepts he had discovered so he knows a thing or two.
A small book with some wonderful insights into happiness
I have read, and enjoyed, several of John Kehoe's book and this one is no exception. In some of his other books like, "Mind Power into the 20th Century" and his most recent work, "Quantum Warrior" John uses a style that is quite interactive and full of great lessons that need to be put into use. In order to gain the benefits of the material in those two books, the reader needs to be quite pro-active and do the work physically.
This book, "The Practice of Happiness", is not only smaller and shorter in length, the style is also different in that it is more of a discourse - not a scientific discourse; rather, it is written from the point of view of somebody who has learned from the school of life.
John Kehoe a uses aspects of his personal life mixed in with quotes and aphorisms from many sources to share a wisdom about happiness that many know, yet so few truly practice. There are many wonderful quotes in the book, but I would like to share something from Mr. Kehoe himself, "Inner harmony and happiness are not just for ourselves: they are gifts that we give to the world. And here a great truth is revealed."
If you could use more happiness in your life, this book would be a great place to start.
A book I've had for 16 years and have read multiple times. Each time a new lesson derived from a different perspective, new experiences and maturity. While only +100 pages; circumnavigation of the book can take longer with intrinsic moments. No doubt this book will fall apart long before I tire of it. One can never be too happy!
