Reviews
A truly lovely book - inspirational, practical and beautifully grounded, both in the busy daily world of students, colleges and universities and in the world of deep contemplation and fundamental human inquiry and insight. In a world increasingly stuffed full of books on mindfulness, this is the real thing. * Katherine Weare, Professor Emeritus, University of Southampton, UK *
This extremely helpful guide will help students of all backgrounds to reach their academic potential and also re-engage with their enjoyment of studying. * Samantha Tarren, Head of Counselling, University of Warwick, UK *
