“An elegant and straightforward exposition of Buddhist teachings and the path to embody them.”

<br> “Robert Beatty has only ever shown up fully as himself—never a hint of projecting some cherished self-image—and has skillfully incorporated the practices of deep insight meditation into the unfolding stories of our all too human lives. I have known him to courageously offer his own life examples as grist for this mill. This exemplary courage of his to teach in this way has consistently had the effect of encouraging others to reframe their own life experience, take on the deeper practice as a personal truthing mechanism, and consciously evolve their relationship with reality joyfully.”

<br> “This book is infused with Robert’s personal experiences as a human being, a therapist, and a Dharma teacher in a practical and understandable way. Robert’s many years of practice and teaching, his willingness to tell his own story in a way that allows us to explore our own experiences, and his unique approach through music, sitting, movement, talks, teaching, and supporting were ideal ways to pass on this practice to us.”
