Take Your Time

Modern life can feel fragmented. Pressure builds at work and at home, and by the end of a long day we are often irritable and drained, wondering what it was all for.

In Take Your Time, Eknath Easwaran, the Indian-born meditation teacher, looks at these everyday choices from a different angle. Through timeless stories, he suggests that the next time stress sets in, we can try responding differently. Seen this way, patience, peace and a sense of meaning come more quickly than we might expect.
