Writing that conveys a mindful presence - direct, pragmatic, and unhurried - covering Buddhism's four divine attitudes - lovingkindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity in her word choice. Salzberg does a wonderful job of including personal, historical, and scriptural stories, motivating adjacent emotions and frustrations, and providing practical meditative exercises with each chapter.
