[] This nitty-gritty guide to life for the spiritual-but-not-necessarily-religious uses Buddhist teachings to answer those burning questions and a host of others related to going out, relationships, work, and social action.

[publisher copy] "In an age of constant distraction, how is it possible to stay focused? If your boss is yelling at you, how do you keep from flying off the handle? And if you happen to be a stripper, or a biker, or an alcoholic, can you still be a Buddhist? Rinzler makes an effort to answer these questions in a book filled with personal anecdotes that show Buddhist practice operating in the real world. This popular Huffington Post advice columnist insists that personal growth occurs with regular meditation--regardless of the setting. He also asserts that beginning Buddhists needn't worry if they enjoy bar hopping, eating meat, and indulging in sex, provided they devote time to the practice of meditation and embrace life as a journey or path. Another key message is that personal growth results when difficulties are regarded as sacred opportunities for learning. For all those who feel unworthy of taking on Buddhist practices due to personal foibles, this book opens the door."--Susan DeGrane, Booklist.
