Zen Habits
Zen Habits (by Mr. Leo Babauta) is the single blog that has the largest impact on your life. It has information on everything from how to be happy to how to make habit changes and even how to live an effortless life (not as boring or as simple as it sounds). Some of my favorite books or posts are below.
The Effortless LifeAs one of the first books of Leo's that I read, this book holds a special place in my heart. Ultimately, it teaches you that you can live an effortless life not by doing nothing, but by learning to love every aspect of your life. When you love work and chores, they no longer require an effort to perform. Leo sells this book on his website, and I highly encourage you to purchase it in support of him, but just in case you can not financial afford this currently, I attached a free PDF version here.
I read a free pdf first, and then went back and purchased the book and all the bonus content. |
Zen Habits: Mastering the Art of ChangeLeo's newest book deals with mastering life changes. Ultimately, this is the peak of all the other skills he teaches you. I have used this book once to start a consistent meditation habit, and I will be using it again soon to start a daily sketching journal.
(This book was only sold on Kickstarter. He is releasing a print version sometime soon, but for now, a PDF version can be found here.) |
The Little Book of ContentmentIf you are ever feeling insecure, this is the book for you. It is completely free and will help you to accept yourself and learn to love whoever you truly are. This book can be found here.
