Reviews

[Phyllida]

What a beautiful book. It felt like a meditation just reading through it for the first time. This is one I will return to again and again and do the meditating it suggests.

[María Ángeles]

Nop.
Mira que el tema me despierta muchísima curiosidad, pero ni con esas el libro ha conseguido atraparme.
No sé nada de "mindfulness" pero, en mi opinión, se trata tan someramente, que no te quedas con nada. Ni siquiera te despierta "el gusanillo" par investigar más.
Prescindible.

[Stefanie]

A beautiful little book with accessible information on the breath. Would make a great gift for someone looking to find calm in their life or for someone new to exploring mindfulness.

[Samuel]

A well-narrated and accessible guide to mindfulness and breath meditation. A bit too basic for my tastes, but I think beginners will get a lot of out this. The exercise are easy to follow, although some felt a bit hippy dippy. 2.5 stars rounded up.

[Oleksandr Golovatyi]

small light and warm book that can be enjoyed in 10 minutes. The book is about the incredible importance of breathing on all the sires of human life.

маленька світла та тепла книга яку можна прочтитати за 10 хвилин. Книга про неймовірну важливість дихання на всі свери людського життя.

[Maryna Ponomaryova]

Прочитала затамувавши подих :) буду неодмінно повертатись. Відчуваю так, наче подарували скарб. (+це оформлення!)

[John Stepper]

I loved this book! It’s so simple, small, and easy to read through. And yet...it captures the essence of mindful breathing in a way that can help you now and in the future. No pretense. No complexity. Just charming, helpful, practical, compassionate simplicity.

If you want more, read “Mindfulness” by the same author and Mark Williams. But if you want to introduce mindfulness to someone, or to reinvigorate your own practice in a simple, beautiful, lightweight way, then buy this book.

[Venera Kabashi]

With all due respect for the author (I love his other books) - this book is a rip off. It is way too short and way too basic. If you have basic knowledge about mindfulness do not spend money on this.

Also it is useless if you buy it as an ebook for kindle because the letters and too small and you cannot write on the pages where that is required because ewritting option does not exist.

[Ivanna]

Чому я не прочитала її раніше?

Книга дуже гарно оформлена, а дихальні практики, я впевнена, дієві, бо вже дещо про них знала. Навіть використала багацько стікерів для такої маленької книги. Дуже сподобалась!

Pasy read. Meditation without philosophy

[Emily]

Breathing, innit. A decent short listen though.

[Julia]

A very short and simple book on breathing, mindfulness, and meditation. Probably best for someone newer to these concepts.

[Jo Jenner]

It took me about an hour to read this book but I know I will go back to it again and again.
A lovely little book to help you think about the breath and everything it can help you do
I highly recommend this book

[Alina Nishkur]

Коротенька та симпатична інструкція з дихання та медитації, для затишного вечірнього прочитання.

[Anniek]

Overbodig boekje, redelijk oppervlakkig. Je leest er in een kwartiertje door.

[Dante]

Está bueno si nunca meditaste o sos medio escéptico sobre el tema. Aún así creo que hay mejores formas de introducirse, ya que presenta una visión bastante "superficial" del tema, o por lo menos con la que yo no logro conectar.

[Zosia]

zapomniałam wcześniej wpisać xd spoko króciutka taka

[veronika]

Ja asi neumím hodnotit naučnou literaturu.

Ale jakoby nic nového jsem se nedozvěděla. Stačí to?

Dvě hvězdy za ilustrace.

[Manolo González]

Es un breve libro, técnicamente es un “manual” para consulta en tiempos de crisis. La primera parte es maravillosa, el intro es de los mejores que he leído, pero ya para el final creo que “pierde el piso” un poco, aún así es una obra perfecta para personas ansiosas y que quieren empezar a meditar.

[Oksamytka]

Книжка привабила мене своєю обкладинкою і неймовірно гарним блакитним дизайном. і назвою "Мистецтво дихати". Наче це те, що робить кожен і без чого ти не можеш існувати. але водночас це інструмент для заспокоєння і щасливого життя. тексту небагато, поради можна втиснути в одне слово "Дихай". там є описи медитацій - треба спробувати. пішла качати музику з сайту, який вказаний у книжці. та хоч яка б не була примітивна ця книжка, вона дає розуміння тому факту, що ти дихаєш, а отже, живеш.. вдих-видих, вдих-видих... Життя чудове!

[Iris Haar]

Kort, simpel boekje over bewust ademen, compassie en mindfulness. Het bevat praktische tips, mooie quotes en is toegankelijk door de korte hoofdstukken. Ik vond het mooi geschreven, je krijgt er gelijk een 'zen' gevoel van. Soms alleen iets te simpel, had van mij best wat uitgebreider gemogen. Het audioboek eindigt met een paar meditatie-oefeningen. Ik las dat het papieren boek heel mooi is vormgegeven met illustraties, ook benieuwd naar!

[Marit]

Simpel, 'licht' boekje wat mij vooral heeft geleerd aandacht te hebben voor wat er is zonder oordeel. Je adem, maar ook sensaties in je lijf, dingen die om je heen gebeuren. Wat het extra fijn maakte was de les dat je mindfulness niet fout kan doen. Het gaat niet om het elimineren van gedachten of gevoelens.

[hasusii]

When beautiful illustrations marries good content, this book comes to life. I enjoyed it very much to the point I sensed a change in my behaviors after reading it, it's insane I know. Highly recommended.

[Alua]

Nice and clear

I am so impressed with clear thoughts so beautifully expressed. Even though concepts mentioned in the book seem to be simple, a big effort is required to deliver them right to people's minds.

[Priscila Ipiranga]

Pra ler numa sentada só. Arte gráfica bela, tom de voz caloroso, é uma introdução pra quem quer começar a respirar conscientemente – e assim também meditar.

[Nicola Serafino]

Great short guide to living more mindfully

[Pat Hagan]

Simple but inspiring

This book puts how to breath in the simplest terms and then Links it to mindfulness. Follow the path and enjoy the reading and illustrations.

[Olivia]

Surprisingly helpful, some of the grounding techniques are enormously useful. Definitely worth reading if you struggle with stress, anxiety or relaxation.

[Pat Morris-jones]

Another case of looking at a book and making judgements before even starting it. I dislike short books on mindfulness that tell you everything you need to know in a glib and patronising tone. I thought this was the same. Once again, maybe a pattern developing, i was wrong. This is so simple it is correct. As he says it is so simple, mindfulness. Complex yet simple. So why write 3000 pages on it? I think he has written much longer books already, also very good but for those, like me that are easily bored. However, as I have secretly known for a long time, it’s made complex to impress methinks. In fact it’s simple. Breathe. Notice what happen and then carry on breathing. I am a simple person. This suits me. Hope others who find mindfulness too complex also read this book.
When I looked at £7.99 for a short book I thought it was exploitation. In fact it’s worth more. After all he does have to live, along with all others in the chain. I shall continue to read a few more longer books on mindfulness but indeed I think I’m just getting into a habit to avoid doing it. Now I am establishing a practise anyway I may just give up reading about it and just do it.....

[Anne-Marie]

This is pure book joy! It is a short, simple, and beautifully illustrated book about the power of breathing with some fun facts and lots of practical tips. I did not know that couples, and even crowds’ breath in harmony, how lovely is that? I love the simplicity of “when in doubt, breathe out”; breathing out activates our parasympathetic system to calm us down.

Also refreshing is the acknowledgement that while meditating in the lotus position may look good on Instagram, it is not comfortable for most people. Sit on a chair! This book also clarified for me that mind wandering IS meditation. Many of us think we are doing it wrong when this happens but “minds wander, its what they do”. It is simply about being aware of it and tuning in to it. These observations help us gain perspective over our own inner brain chatter.

Lastly I learned, there are no goals or rules in meditation, you find what you find. It sets the mind free. I love that! Gorgeous little book, one to pick up again and again.
