In celebration of its 10th anniversary a revised and updated edition of the award-winning #1
New York Times bestseller that changed the way we look at meditation expanded with new
material by Dan Harris. After having a nationally televised panic attack on Good Morning
America Dan Harris knew he had to make some changes. A lifelong nonbeliever he found himself
on a bizarre adventure involving a disgraced pastor a mysterious self-help guru and a gaggle
of brain scientists. Eventually Harris realized that the source of his problems was the very
thing he always thought was his greatest asset: the incessant insatiable voice in his head. We
all have an inner narrator. It's what has us losing our temper unnecessarily checking our
email compulsively eating when we're not hungry and fixating on the past and the future at
the expense of the present. Most of us assume we're stuck with this voice?that there's nothing
we can do to rein it in?but Harris stumbled upon an effective way to do just that. 10% Happier
is now considered a classic text on the power of meditation an introduction to the practice
that can convert even the most hardened skeptic. With over a million copies sold 10% Happier
is the go-to guide and with meditation now a widely accepted and encouraged practice Dan
Harris is a pivotal and approachable figure in the field who has built a thriving platform
based on the ideas he first presented in this book. In this 10th Anniversary Edition Harris
offers a new preface reflecting on how much has changed?for him and for the public perceptions
of meditation plus a revised and expanded appendix filled with guided meditations and
practical advice for people looking to boot up a habit.
