In our never-ending search for happiness, we often find ourselves looking to external things for fulfillment: our jobs, homes, and families. Offering a meaningful alternative, Buddhist monk Gelong Thubten shares a practical and sustainable approach to happiness. A meditation expert who has worked with a wide variety of seekers, Thubten explains how meditation and mindfulness can help us to choose happiness and develop greater compassion for others. Much as we may think there's not enough time for such practices, Thubten also teaches how to meditate in short intervals during a busy day.
