Summary
The secret to happiness is to acknowledge and transform suffering, not to run away from it. Here, Thich Nhat Hanh offers practices and inspiration transforming suffering and finding true joy.
Thich Nhat Hanh acknowledges that because suffering can feel so bad, we try to run away from it or cover it up by consuming. We find something to eat or turn on the television. But unless we’re able to face our suffering, we can’t be present and available to life, and happiness will continue to elude us.
Nhat Hanh shares how the practices of stopping, mindful breathing, and deep concentration can generate the energy of mindfulness within our daily lives. With that energy, we can embrace pain and calm it down, instantly bringing a measure of freedom and a clearer mind.
No Mud, No Lotus introduces ways to be in touch with suffering without being overwhelmed by it. "When we know how to suffer," Nhat Hanh says, "we suffer much, much less." With his signature clarity and sense of joy, Thich Nhat Hanh helps us recognize the wonders inside us and around us that we tend to take for granted and teaches us the art of happiness.

I needed to hear that (audiobook)
Going through a painful phase and this audiobook has immediately helped me. I feel calmer and more hopeful. I had no expectations when i started listening to it, i just wanted to listen to some wisdom whilst doodling. Now i want to go on walks and pay attention to my breathing.

Pleasurable
Great insights to help focus on being genuinely happy for self and towards others without the expectation of constant flows of happiness being how to achieve it.
Short listen/read and something you can dip into.
Useful mantras.

such beautiful logic
I loved how the book gave such good clear exercises to do. I loved the similies used. very relatable. I did struggle on times with the accent of the producer but not enough to hinder the overall experience of the book
