“It has been said that ‘mind upholds the world,’ and many people have experienced the power of unacknowledged thoughts, misinformed judgments, and poorly informed bias to distort and misdirect their lives. In How Would Buddha Think? Barbara Ann Kipfer offers readers excellent insights and a wide variety of practical and accessible mindfulness-based practices for illuminating all types of thoughts. Readers who wish to free themselves from the distorting power of negative thoughts, and experience more peace and happiness through present-moment centered awareness, are strongly encouraged to embrace this book!”
