Review Quotes:
"Whether you are new to Buddhist meditation or a seasoned practitioner, this book will enhance your understanding of the essential principles and practices of the Buddha. Emily's non-dogmatic approach captures the breadth and depth of these ancient core teachings while pointing out their relevance in approaching our contemporary struggles. The Buddha's Teachings for Beginners would make an excellent choice for anyone seeking a fresh new voice on the subject." --Ron Vereen, MD, co-founder and guiding teacher at Triangle Insight Meditation Community

Review Quotes:
"For those wanting a clearer understanding of what Buddha taught, this book offers a beautiful doorway into the fundamentals of Buddhist teachings. It's possible to practice things like mindfulness and/or lovingkindness without knowing the philosophical underpinnings of the Buddhist teachings. While practice on its own is beneficial, anyone curious about the transformative path of Buddhist practice will gain insight and wisdom from this book. Emily authentically covers the basics of essential Buddhist teachings: the Three Characteristics, the Four Noble Truths, the Eightfold Noble Path, the Five Spiritual Faculties, and the Brahma Viharas. She includes some of the terms in Pali (an ancient north Indian language through which the teachings were transmitted), detailed descriptions, and modern interpretations and practices. A wonderful, generous offering!" --Eve Decker, Buddhist teacher, coach, and musician

Review Quotes:
" The Buddha's Teachings for Beginners is a clear, accessible, and inspiring introduction to the essential teachings of the Buddha. Whether you're a complete newcomer or someone who wants an excellent overview of the core principles shared by all the diverse schools of Buddhism, this book will speak to you in a way that opens your heart, quiets your mind, and gently challenges you to actualize our best human qualities--love, awareness, wisdom, and joy." --David Chernikoff, Insight Meditation Teacher and author of Life, Part Two: Seven Keys to Awakening with Purpose and Joy as you Age
