and Kadampa Teacher Rob Anderson
In the book, How to Transform Your Life, by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso there is a chapter called 'A Common Practice for Everyone' which teaches us special states of mind and intentions that naturally give rise to peace and happiness.
These special mental habits are part of the 11 Virtuous Mental Factors, first taught by Buddha over two and a half thousand years ago, and yet these ancient insights are more timely and relevant than ever.
Developing these habits of mind have the power to shift your perspective, reduce stress and boost emotional well-being.
