"In my 20 years of teaching, I’ve learned that the most challenging part of meditation is making it a daily habit. I created this book to help those who are interested in meditation learn how to gain the most benefit and create a healthy, sustainable daily habit.
We’ve also incorporated scientific tidbits that reflect my interest in brain science and how it relates to meditation and habit formation." - From Lama Tsomo

About the Author
Lama Tsomo and the Namchak Communtiy
Lama Tsomo followed a path of spiritual inquiry and study that ultimately led to her ordination as one of the few American lamas in Tibetan Buddhism.
Under the tutelage of Tulku Sangak Rinpoche, international holder of the Namchak lineage, Lama Tsomo has done extensive spiritual retreats in the U.S. and abroad, and is fluent in Tibetan. Today, she is dedicated to sharing the teachings of the Namchak lineage with Western students, bringing greater happiness and meaning to life through meditation practice, community, and retreat. She is especially passionate about reaching young people and supporting those working for positive social change. Her teaching has inspired American and international students, who appreciate her informal, and often humorous, style.
Lama Tsomo holds an M.A. in Counseling Psychology with an emphasis in Jungian studies. She is the author of Why Is the Dali Lama Always Smiling? An Introduction and Guide to Tibetan Buddhist Practice, winner of a 2016 Independent Publisher award. She is also a contributor to Tami Simon’s book: The Dharma of Dogs: Our Best Friends as Spiritual Teachers, released July 2017.
