Thich Nhat Hanh

"When we touch peace everything becomes real." —Thich Nhat Hanh

In this sequel to Being Peace, Thich Nhat Hanh continues his teachings on practicing peace in everyday life and shows us how mindful awareness can help us see the roots of war, violence, substance abuse, and social alienation. With chapters on the Happiness of One Person, Diet for a Mindful Society, and Realizing Ultimate Reality, Thich Nhat Hanh combines classic teachings and practical instruction. He concludes with his compelling vision for rebuilding society.

Touching Peace includes classic Thich Nhat Hanh practices, such as the conflict resolution tool of the Peace Treaty; his thoughts on a "diet for a mindful society" based on his interpretation of the Five Mindfulness Trainings; and his early writings on the environment.
