THE KOREAN BESTSELLER

'On a human scale, the snail's speed is ridiculously slow, but on a world scale, it's just perfect.'

In this comforting and calming book, Korean Buddhist nun Jung-mok teaches us how to slow down and free ourselves from the stress of our busy modern lives.

Through stories rooted in the natural world and Buddhist philosophy, Jung-mok shares her kind wisdom and simple practices to help us live a happy life. This book will open your eyes to the beauty that surrounds you and allow you to find peace and stillness from within.

Illustrated with charming pen and ink drawings throughout, this beautiful little book is a soothing balm for the soul.
