Showing results for "Second" in Meditation

In 2001, Toni Bernhard got sick and, to her and her partner’s bewilderment, stayed that way. As they faced the confusion, frustration, and despair of a life with sudden limitations - a life that was vastly different from the one they’d thought they’d have together - Toni had to learn how to be sick. In spite of her many physical and energetic restrictions (and sometimes, because of them), Toni learned how to live a life of equanimity, compassion, and joy.

The basis of Ten Zen Seconds lies in using a single deep breath as a container for a specific thought. Blending Eastern principles of breath awareness and mindfulness with Western principles of positive psychology, this guide presents meditative incantations that offer powerful antidotes to stress, procrastination, and anxiety.

Emotional intelligence is the skill of understanding emotions, both yours and other people’s. This understanding lets you control your emotional reactions, treat other people with genuine empathy, and communicate like a pro. Emotional intelligence is the key skill of any leader and, in fact, any successful professional. Low EQ can really sabotage your career and personal life. Your job-related skills will be overlooked because “people skills” is what really matters in the workplace.
