Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags
You were not lazy. You were on fire.
If you cannot stop working, cannot rest without guilt, and cannot remember the last time you felt anything but tired, this book was written for you.
In Zen Stories for Burned-Out Souls, you'll find 100 ancient Zen tales paired with a quiet reflection called The Quiet Truth - short, simple, no productivity advice and no hustle.
Each story is for the version of you that has given too much for too long:
- the teacher who stays late every night- the parent who has not sat down since morning- the worker who forgot what weekends feel like- the caregiver who never asks for care- the one who feels guilty resting in a body that is finally on the floor
Inside this book you will find:
- 100 Zen story-entries - short enough to finish when you have nothing left- 10 stages from the inability to stop to the rediscovery of meaning- Monks, farmers, healers, and craftsmen who worked themselves hollow- The Quiet Truth - a 1-paragraph reflection at the end of every story- Zero productivity tips, zero morning routines, zero hustle
This is not a book about doing more.>The fire that matters is not the one that consumes you. It is the one that lights your way home.
Book 8 in the Eastern Wisdom for Modern Life series by P.P. Li.
