{"product_id":"sit-walk-dont-talk-jennifer-howd-9781941529706","title":"Sit, Walk, Don't Talk: How I Survived a Silent Meditation Retreat","description":"Jennifer Howd had been building a mindfulness practice for a few years before taking on the challenge of her first nine-day silent meditation retreat. In this debut memoir, she chronicles the humorous--and often harrowing--adventures of the dueling inner voices that emerge in the silence: one intent on focusing on the seemingly negative aspects of her experiences, and the other on helping her see the positivity that can come from them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIlluminating for those who are new to mindfulness and resonant for those with established practices, \u003ci\u003eSit, Walk, Don't Talk: How I Survived a Silent Meditation Retreat\u003c\/i\u003e also includes a helpful appendix listing tips for preparing for a silent meditation retreat, including a section for undertaking a retreat on your own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSit, Walk, Don't Talk\u003c\/i\u003e is written from a secular perspective and will appeal to folks who've never attended a residential retreat but are curious about the experience and want to get a taste of what to expect before possibly taking the plunge. Practitioners who dream of going on retreat but cannot make the time will also get a lot out of Howd's story, as well as folks who've been on many retreats and want to recapture the feeling without leaving home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Howd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941529704\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941529706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Parallax Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 4.90w x 0.20d","brand":"Jennifer Howd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46927926100223,"sku":"9781941529706","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1003649e-28d4-4342-a93f-5a2dbf5efd7a.jpg?v=1749373398","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sit-walk-dont-talk-jennifer-howd-9781941529706","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
