Written by ABC News anchor Dan Harris with meditation teacher Jeff Warren, it tackles every excuse skeptics use to avoid sitting still. Perfect for busy adults, self-help readers, and anyone curious about mindfulness but put off by \"woo-woo\" language, this paperback offers a refreshingly honest, funny, and practical route into meditation, grounded firmly in real science rather than spiritual jargon or wishful thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter a very public panic attack on live television, journalist Dan Harris became an unlikely meditation convert. In this follow-up to his bestselling memoir 10% Happier, Harris teams up with meditation teacher Jeff Warren for a genuinely odd-couple road trip across America in a rented tour bus. Along the way they meet meditating police officers, tired parents, skeptical teenagers, and even a few celebrities, building a candid, often hilarious taxonomy of the excuses that stop people meditating: \"I don't have time,\" \"I suck at this,\" \"It's too woo-woo for me.\" Each obstacle is met with a science-based, practical hack rather than platitudes. The book explains, in plain English, how a regular practice can lower blood pressure, ease anxiety and depression, sharpen focus, and reshape key areas of the brain — all without requiring incense, chanting, or a leap of faith. Interwoven with reporting, humour, and honest self-deprecation, it functions as both a memoir of an unlikely friendship and a genuinely usable manual, complete with guided practices readers can try in minutes. It's an ideal next step for anyone who enjoyed 10% Happier and wants a hands-on companion to actually start meditating, rather than just reading about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeginner-friendly, jargon-free introduction to meditation for genuine skeptics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by real neuroscience and clinical research, not mysticism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunny, honest, and relatable storytelling from a road trip across America\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBite-sized, doable practices that fit into a busy schedule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat follow-up to 10% Happier or a strong standalone read\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for anyone curious about stress reduction and mindfulness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDan Harris is a longtime American television journalist and co-anchor of ABC's Nightline and the weekend editions of Good Morning America. His on-air panic attack led him to meditation, and to writing the #1 New York Times bestseller 10% Happier, followed by a popular podcast and app of the same name. Co-author Jeff Warren is a meditation teacher and founder of Toronto's Consciousness Explorers Club, bringing a playful, exploratory voice that balances Harris's journalistic skepticism throughout the book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy You'll Love This Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFunny, disarmingly honest, and genuinely useful, this is meditation stripped of pretension.
