Modern Mindfulness: How to Be More Relaxed, Focused, and Kind While Living in a Fast, Digital, Always-On World
Synopsis
In Modern Mindfulness, Rohan Gunatillake argues that to lead more mindful, calm and happy lives, switching off is the last thing we need to do. Instead he gives listeners ideas, principles, and techniques to bring awareness, composure, and kindness whatever they are doing. Filled with over sixty practical exercises, the author’s mobile mindfulness approach gives the benefits of meditation to even the busiest of lives.
Ideas from Modern Mindfulness:
- Learn to fade out instead just falling asleep
- Learn to watch TV mindfully (yes, it’s possible!)
- Make mobility part of mindfulness (we’re always on the move!)
- Use technology for good instead of evil (no need to do a digital detox).
- Learn to “whack-a-thought” and stay centered

Review
"Anyone intrigued by mindfulness, but allergic to incense or too busy to take a course should read this book. Like his app Buddhify, Modern Mindfulness is clean, elegant and useful. It's perfectly suited to our hurried, global, digital existence – and yet also a perfect antidote to it." - Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, author of The Distraction Addiction and Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Do Less
