Calm Mind, Open Heart is an invitation to pause, breathe, and rediscover the wisdom and compassion already within you.
Drawing on years of weekly classes and discussions, Buddhist contemplative David Oromith distils the most resonant teachings – each a page long, each a chance for reflection – into a pocket-sized companion for everyday life.
From taming the “monkey mind” with meditation, to cultivating fearless compassion in the face of modern stress, David guides you with warmth, humour, and the disarming honesty of someone who has walked the path through depression, anxiety, and burnout himself.
Every reflection pairs timeless Buddhist insight with real life, showing exactly how to transform our irritations into patience, fear into ease, and imbalance into wellbeing.
Whether you have five minutes on a train or a quiet hour in the day, these pages will offer a quick spark of clarity and a practical teaching you can try here and now. Keep it with you, on your bedside table, or beside the kettle. Let the mind be calmed and the heart opened.
