Critics Review
With his characteristic gentleness and insight, Vietnamese Zen master Nhat Hanh (Fear) applies his key teachings to the workplace. Taking the reader step-by-step through the workday, Nhat Hanh discusses applying mindfulness to simple activities (eating breakfast, answering the phone), using breathing and walking meditation to promote ease, and resolving negative emotions and workplace conflict. Suggestions and models (such as a “peace treaty”) provide tools for change. The book also explores general topics such as right livelihood, happiness, and community.

Thich Nhat Hanh
Thich Nhat Hanh
Thich Nhat Hanh was a world-renowned spiritual teacher and peace activist. Born in Vietnam in 1926, he became a Zen Buddhist monk at the age of sixteen. Over seven decades of teaching, he published more than 100 books, which have sold more than four million copies in the United States alone.
Exiled from Vietnam in 1966 for promoting peace, his teachings on Buddhism as a path to social and political transformation were responsible for bringing the mindfulness movement to Western culture. He established the international Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism in France, now the largest Buddhist monastery in Europe and the heart of a growing community of mindfulness practice centers around the world.
He passed away in 2022 at the age of 95 at his root temple, Tu Hieu, in Hue, Vietnam.
