Books about mindfulness that could transform your life

Recently I had an interesting conversation with a woman I had studied with. As we talked, she was sitting in an Ashram in India whereas I was sitting in a set-up office space in my Canadian’s family home gym. We hadn’t seen or talked in over two years and catching up, sharing the stories of how our life’s have changed was truly inspiring.

„Would you be willing to share with me you favorite books about mindfulness and emotional intelligence? There is so much out there and I know you are in this sphere for a while now and have read a lot, so I would really appreciate your recommendations.“

Because my curiosity around these topics and insatiable, her request made me sit down to stop, reflect and create a list. So here it is:
