Pause, Breathe, Smile is a purely enjoyable read that helps to cultivate

awareness, compassion, and joy in the midst of everyday life. Writer Gary
Gach was lay-ordained by Thich Nhat Hanh and in this book he draws on his
50-plus years of study and practice to create one of the most accessible and
clear guides to mindfulness available. The book is broken down into three
sections focusing on Intention (Pause), Introspection (Breathe), and Insight
(Smile). Mindfulness literature may be overly abundant, but Gach truly brings
a humour and poetic simplicity to the subject that makes this book informative
and engaging. From the very first page you’ll feel the lightness and freedom
that can be found in the simple three steps of pausing, breathing, and smiling.
