A quick read, well worth it. Jam-packed with lots of Eastern philosophy. Practical, common sense that I just needed to hear once more. Eating in moderation, diet rich in local fruits and vegetables, regular physical activity, building great relationships, positive attitude towards life, emotional resilience, more nature, less technology - everyone knows these mantras. Those who follow them live long and happy lives. Must reread once in a while to remind oneself of these timeless truths.

Beautifully written book full of profound insights. I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t benefit from reading this book. 

It’s a short book with concise chapters full of valuable ideas.
