Nos explica cómo llevar los principios comúnmente asociados al budismo zen -simplicidad, armonía y tranquilidad- a nuestra vida diaria. El zen, fuente de sabiduría oriental con más de dos mil quinientos años de existencia, nos ofrece una filosofia totalmente actual para gozar plenamente de lo que la vida nos ofrece aqui y ahora. Zen de cada dia se centra en muchos aspectos practicos, como relajar la menta y el cuerpo gracias al control de la respiracion y la meditacion; aprender a controlar emociones que nos agobian, como la rabia y el temor; crear un ambiente de serenidad en el hogar; embellecer el jardin con la sencillez de la naturaleza, y preparar alimentos deliciosos y sanos.
