Mindfulness meditation insights and applications to daily living, from a seasoned Buddhist practitioner and teacher. The book is arranged as a series of weekly topics that can be relevant guides for navigating the challenges we face in the real world.

Bonnie Ryan-Fisher is a dedicated lay Buddhist practitioner who leads meditation and yin yoga classes in Whitecourt, AB. She's also a longtime writer whose recent work inclines toward Dhamma. Bonnie's first meditation teachers were found in books and her practice began in the 90's in a great deal of isolation. In 2014, two years after finally founding a sitting group in her hometown, she launched her blog, Mindful Moment (mindful-moment.webnode.com) as a place to share that 20-year journey with others also finding their way. This book emerged simply because it seemed time for the blog to blossom into a book, joining the circle to where it all began.
