About The Wisdom of the Breath

The answers to the most profound spiritual questions lie within us—but how do we gain access to our deepest wisdom? “Breathing is a gateway to insight,” reveals Scottish-born teacher Bodhipaksa, “and meditation gives us the key.” On The Wisdom of Your Breath, this master teacher guides listeners through breath-centered meditations for opening to the inner core of spiritual awareness we all possess.With these three essential practices, he reveals how the breath can help you:

• Let go of the past and future, and rest in pure presence
• Dissolve the sense of separateness to experience oneness with the world around you
• Embrace the essential impermanence of all life with serenity and joy
• Tap into your own natural wisdom by exploring the breath as a metaphor for living

Whether you’re experimenting with meditation for the first time or have been practicing for years, focusing on the breath is a vital technique for realizing inner peace and clarity. Join this accessible and knowledgeable teacher for three invaluable practices to nourish your spiritual growth with The Wisdom of the Breath.

About Bodhipaksa

I’m a Buddhist teacher and author living in New Hampshire, but originally from Scotland.

I got the Sanskrit name (which means “Wings of Enlightenment,” incidentally) when I joined the Western Buddhist Order in 1993, after 11 years of Buddhist practice. I practice at Aryaloka Buddhist Center, which is just down the road.

I run Wildmind, which has a mission to spread compassion and mindfulness through the practice of Buddhist meditation. We offer an extensive self-paced guide to a variety of meditation techniques and well as a regular stream of articles in our blog. We also publish guided meditation CDs. Wildmind’s where I do the bulk of my writing.

I teach meditation and Buddhism in prison. That’s an incredibly satisfying thing to do.

I like kayaking and photography. I love reading and movies. Sometimes I hike, but I’ve been getting lazier as I’ve been getting older.

In 2006 my wife and I adopted a baby girl from Ethiopia, and that’s been more satisfying than I could have imagined. And then in 2009 we did it again and adopted a baby boy, also from Ethiopia.
