“Tiny Buddha is a moving and insightful synthesis of evocative stories and ancient wisdom applied to modern life. A great read!” — Jonathan Fields, author of Uncertainty
From the mind behind TinyBuddha.com, Lori Deschene brings us the latest edition of her guide to peace, purpose, joy, and more! Exploring the challenging questions we all have to answer for ourselves, Tiny Buddha can be your handbook to personal fulfillment.
You are in control of your purpose. Life has a way of giving us more questions than answers. And despite our many differences, we all ask ourselves the same things, starting with: Why am I here? Featuring varied perspectives from Twitter followers around the world, Tiny Buddha can help us choose the meaning behind our existence and find purpose in our pain, no matter how deep.
Uncertainty can be a good thing. Offering straightforward, practical advice and pieces of her own personal journey, author Lori Deschene breaks down hard yet revealing questions about life, love, happiness, and change. We may have very few concrete answers, but that means we each get to decide for ourselves what it all means and what happiness looks like for us. Let Tiny Buddha help you create and honor that vision.
Inside, you’ll find:
If you like self-help books or advice blogs, or if you enjoyed Living on Purpose, The Soul’s Human Experience, or The Tao of Influence, then you’ll love Tiny Buddha.
Lori Deschene grew up in Massachusetts, where she developed into a Type-A overachiever with a strong drive to do more and be more--largely because she believed this would prove she was valuable and lovable. She began working two jobs at twelve years old, while maintaining her status as an honor roll student and spending nights rehearsing for community theater performances. So packed was her schedule that a friend predicted, in her high school year-book class prophecy, that she'd eventually write and star in a one-woman show about her life called "Stress."
Though she's yet to pen that script, she's learned a lot about managing stress since she left her hometown in the 2002. Since then, she's traveled all over the US for work, lived in multiple states, recovered from a decade-plus battle with bulimia, healed from major depression, learned to embrace her emotional sensitivity, and built a career that suits her introverted nature and allows her to leverage her painful past for good.
Lori is the author of Tiny Buddha: Simple Wisdom for Life's Hard Questions, Tiny Buddha's Guide to Loving Yourself, Tiny Buddha's 365 Tiny Love Challenges, Tiny Buddha's Gratitude Journal, and Tiny Buddha's Worry Journal. Formerly a contributor for nationally distributed girls' magazines, Lori dreams of one day writing and illustrating her own picture books.
