THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF 10% Happier Too busy to meditate? Can\'t turn off your brain? Curious about mindfulness but more comfortable in the gym? This Book is for you. -- O: The Oprah Magazine. --Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project The ABC News anchor, a \'defender of worrying\' who once had an anxiety attack on air, offers a hilarious and stirring account of his two-steps-forward-one-step-back campaign to sort \'useless rumination\' from \'constructive anguish\' via mindfulness, along with invaluable suggestions for following in his footsteps.
Well researched, practical, and crammed with expert advice, it\'s also an irreverent, hilarious page-turner.
Praise for Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics If you\'re intrigued by Meditation but don\'t know how to begin--or you\'ve benefited from Meditation in the past but need help to get started again--Dan Harris has written the Book for you.
This Book is a trip worth taking.
It is filled with game-changing and deeply practical Meditation instructions--all of which are also available (for free) on the 10% Happier app.
So what\'s holding you back? In Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics, Harris and Jeff Warren, a masterful teacher and Meditation MacGyver, embark on a gonzo cross-country quest to tackle the myths, misconceptions, and self-deceptions that keep people from meditating.
Science suggests that the practice can lower your blood pressure, mitigate depression and anxiety, and literally rewire key parts of the brain.
According to his wife, it also made him less annoying.
Harris found that Meditation made him more focused and less yanked around by his emotions.
After he had a panic attack on live television, he went on a strange and circuitous journey that ultimately led him to become one of meditation\'s most vocal public proponents.
ABC News anchor Dan Harris used to think that Meditation was for people who collect crystals, play Ultimate Frisbee, and use the word namaste without irony.
You\'ll also get access to guided audio meditations on the 10% Happier app, to jumpstart your practice from day one.
