Real Happiness at Work: Meditations for Accomplishment, Achievement, and Peace | Sharon Salzberg

pick

I decided I better get my act together and read this book before I retire in a few months! I adore Sharon Salzberg and appreciate her wisdom. In this book, she teaches readers how to incorporate meditation into their work life to better cope with stressful meetings, pressing deadlines, and difficult people. ☮️

Full review at https://abookandadog.com

KathyWheeler I probably could have used something like this earlier in my career. 😊 A few months before I retired though, I just refused to stress about anything. I did my job, but didn‘t allow people to pressure me. 5mo

NatalieR @KathyWheeler I‘m with you! 😀 Fortunately, I‘m able to phase myself out by reducing the days I work and my workload. It‘s amazing and perfect for my mental health. 🧘🏻‍♀️ 5mo

KathyWheeler @NatalieR I had just gone back to the building after working from home during COVID, then my husband got really sick so I went back to work from home, then I decided to retire and never really went back to the building unless I had to. So I‘d sort of phased myself out in terms of a physical presence. It was great for my mental health. 5mo

NatalieR @KathyWheeler I‘m sorry your husband got sick. I‘m glad you had a peaceful end to your career. I hope you‘re enjoying retirement. 🩷 5mo

KathyWheeler @NatalieR It was so scary when he was sick; it took him more than a year to fully recover, but he‘s better now. I am enjoying retirement. ❤️ 5mo

peaKnit I‘m retiring in 6 months and I am feeling myself disengage. I like the idea of not allowing myself to be pressured. I am going to try that. Thanks! 5mo

NatalieR @KathyWheeler I‘m so happy your husband has recovered and you‘re enjoying retirement! ❤️ 5mo

NatalieR @peaKnit Congratulations! I am feeling disengaged too. Some of it is intentional. I have to learn to separate myself. It‘s going to happen soon anyway. 😅 I hope the tip works for you! 🤞 5mo

monalyisha Not putting Mary Roach on my list hurt my heart a little. Glad (and not at all surprised) to see that she‘s being represented without me! 8mo

julesG @RaeLovesToRead It's an interesting topic. 8mo

julesG @random_michelle @monalyisha - I have most of Roach's books, but not read all of them yet. 🙈 8mo
