Description
Instructions to the Cook: A Zen Master's Lessons in Living a Life that Matters
This book explores how cooking can be a way to cultivate mindfulness and live a more meaningful life. Drawing on the principles of Zen Buddhism, it shows how even simple actions like preparing meals can be transformed into opportunities for growth and connection.
Author Bernie Glassman founded Greyston Bakery in 1982 with a vision of creating a business that not only thrived financially but also made a positive impact on its community. The book shares the story of this innovative approach and how it has led to the creation of a network of organizations providing affordable housing, childcare, and healthcare services.
