If you’ve ever wanted more long-term, genuine happiness, and positivity in your life, then do we have the Blue Sky show for you!

Today I’ll be talking with Zen Master Joseph Emet, who’s trained under Thich Nhat Hanh, has a doctorate in Music from BU, and is the author of Buddha’s Book of Sleep, along with several beautiful others, and a new favorite mindfulness book of mine, Finding the Blue Sky.

And that’s just what we’ll be talking about today, a mindful approach to choosing happiness here and how.

That plus we’ll talk about practicing Laziness, a BEEing meditation, becoming a professional smiler, the difference between thinking and meditating, where in the world are the happiness police, and why in the world you don’t want to keep poison ivy, thorns or crabgrass in your house.
