Think Like a Monk: Train Your Mind for Peace and Purpose Every Day by Jay Shetty

informative inspiring medium-paced

4.5

I’ve seen a lot of viral reels with Jay Shetty, and I was curious to try one of his books. I appreciate how he’s bridging a gap here between popular culture and Buddhsit/Hindu/Zen teachings. One might think a true monk wouldn’t be on social media at all, but I see the value in having one foot in either side. Shetty is able to spread this knowledge on a wider scale, which I think is a good thing! There’s a lot of helpful practical tools in here that I’ve been incorporating into my routines, and he’s inspired me to look for new/other ways to give back in service of others.
