The healing power of reading has been renowned since Aristotle; focus, flow and enlightenment can all be achieved through this universal act. In this illuminating guide, Ella Berthoud explores how reading mindfully can shape the person you are, encouraging empathy and opening your mind to important morals.

Through meditative exercises, engaging anecdotes and expert insights, discover the enriching potential of reading for mindfulness, by learning:

  • How to use reading to develop your emotional intelligence
  • How to read in different ways
  • How to read like a child – without preconceptions and in exciting places
  • How to benefit from reading with others
  • How to find yourself in a book and remember what you have read
