No Ordinary Moments:A Peaceful Warrior's Guide to Daily Life

To me, this book reads like a conversation between the reader's mind and Mr. Millman. Mr.M. has interspersed several useful mental and physical(i.e. breathing) exercises amongst the various chapters of this great book, giving the publication a very practical appeal. The use of quotes is also very effective. There is no preachy, judgmental "fire & brimstone" tone to the teachings either. Mr. M. uses examples from his own life, which helps the reader get "closer" to the author.I like Mr. M.'s approach to self-help issues such as addictions, relationships and success. One begins to realize that it is all up to the individual to CHOOSE their path when faced with ANY circumstance.My favorite section is "The Time is Now" (pp.291-295) which truly drives home the truth that every moment of one's life can be an unreasonably happy microcosmic "lifetime".Thank you Mr. Millman!

No Ordinary Moments

Dan's writing is clear and concise. While each new idea builds upon previous thoughts, one can read snippets here and there, and still gain great insight. As a Psychiatric nurse, I have used areas of his book to help increase understanding and insight among my higher functioning patients, with great success. Everything he writes is easy to read and understand and put into practice. A very valuable book.

No ordinary book

Unlike much of the "it's easy to be perfectly happy" self-help genre, this book offers practical and useful ways to become more aware of each action, each reaction, and each choice we make. None of it is easy, and that is what I appreciate the most - the honesty to say it takes work.

Enjoy living in the moment,rather than for the moment!

I have recommended this book to many friends and students-if you've been told you are playing life at 10 and know you really are only playing at 5, then this book will assist you in discovering what's holding you back!

What a book!!!

I just have to say that this is by far one of the most extraordinary books that I have ever read. I actually take this book on all my travels as sort of a guide for me to follow. Every time I read it I get more out of it. I have read all of Dan's titles and have even had the pleasure of seeing him speak recently in Chicago, and I highly recommend this title to anyone that want's to get to that next level of spiritual awakening. To Dan I say Thank You, this book has changed me in so many ways. Sincerely, Cassie Stewart
