Thich Nhat Hanh

The sequel to the bestselling Miracle of Mindfulness. A "friend rather than a book," The Sun My Heart is a true spiritual classic with wisdom for deep reflection on daily life.

One of Thich Nhat Hanh’s most beloved books, The Sun My Heart contains the journey from mindfulness to insight on the path of everyday practice. Using the objects and events of everyday life— the gradual settling of the pulp in a glass of orange juice or the wind blowing into the room and scattering papers about—Thich Nhat Hanh draws from Buddhist psychology, epistemology, and the worlds of contemporary literature and science to guide the reader along the path of clarity and understanding.

A companion guide for meditators, The Sun My Heart contains many of Thich Nhat Hanh's core teachings, and encourages readers to use their practice to discover their own insights. As he writes: "Wisdom is a living stream, not an icon to be preserved in a museum."
