10% Happier by Dan Harris

5.0

I’ve had this book sitting on my kindle for a while. Now was the perfect time for me to absorb it. As someone who has dabbled in mindfulness for over a year, I’ve been in a self exploration phase that allows me to relate deeply to this book. As someone who goes through life with a more than healthy sense of skepticism, this book made me feel seen... and then... optimistic. Harris’s writes with humor and a journalistic approach that works really well. It doesn’t hurt that he has access to crazy experiences and stories about famous people. And man, does he know how to end a chapter with a cliff hanger. A readable, funny, science based book about mindfulness? Exactly what I needed to get me ready for a deeper exploration.
