Read a Dhamma book today

Title : Let Go ( A Buddhist Guide to Breaking Free of Habits )
Author : Martine Batchelor
ISBN : 0-86171-521-7

Contents
1. Patterns
2. Meditation
3. Grasping
4. Mental Habits
5. Lost in Emotions
6. Signals of the Body & etc.

Negative patterns of mind may manifest as fear, avoidance, depression, addiction, judgement of self or other - and any of a host of other physical, mental, or psychological troubles.  Let Go aims at understanding what lies at the root of these behaviours so we can reclaim control of our lives.  Each chapter concludes with an exercise or guided meditation as a tool for readers to work with negative habits in a new and creative way.

As New Year is approaching, if you make an aspiration to break free from bad or unwholesome habits, then it is the right time to pick up the book and learn the techniques step by step.  As the author puts it "When we break free from the habits that limit us, a new world of possibilities opens up."  Let Go!
