This book was highlighted as a huge bestseller that stood out among others on the subject of habits. The author proposed that the best way to change habits is to start very small, at an atomic level, and then build upon those small changes to achieve powerful results over time.
It's called Atomic Habits and it's written by a guy named James Clear who's got a rather varied resume.
The term Atomic Habits has to do in part with his belief which is based in science. He says that the best way to change your habits is to start really, really, really small and easy at the atomic level and then to layer up from there in ways that can be super powerful.
The first meaning of the word atomic is what you might guess, tiny or small like an atom. And that's kind of a big part of my philosophy. Habits should be small and easy to do.
The second meaning of the word atomic is the fundamental unit in a larger system. . . And you put them all together and you end up with the system of your daily routine.
And then the third and final meaning is the source of immense energy or power. And I think that if you combine all three of those meanings, you sort of understand the narrative arc of the book, which is you make changes that are small and easy to do. You layer them on top of each other, like units in a larger system. And if you do that, then you can end up with some really powerful remarkable results in a long way.
This book was listed among those previously written on the subject of habits.

The book was mentioned in relation to Mingyur Rinpoche's near-death experience, where he felt that once attachments were stripped away, all that remained was love, causing him to be 'in love with the world.' The speaker questioned if there was real evidence that love is what remains when all habitual thought patterns are stripped away.

She's also the author of a children's book called I Wonder, which my wife and I read to our son.
It's a slim, crisp, compelling volume called Conscious, a brief guide to the fundamental mystery of the mind.
I think people do use the word in many ways and it's confusing and I actually like the word experience. I think it's a little bit cleaner.
My main goal kind of shifted from just wanting to share this mystery with everyone to really hoping that I could help make the topic less taboo because if we are ever going to make any progress on the hard problem it will it has to be that scientists can can think about it and discuss it publicly
This was described as a spiritual classic thin volume that was recommended to the guest by the host's husband and Joseph Goldstein. The guest found this book to be mind-blowing and a strong practice for immediately experiencing the dropping of the illusion of self.

I actually love to quote Galen Strass and the philosopher Galen Strass who says what you do follows from what you are.
and I can't remember if you and I've talked about this or not but that that's the one thing that's the strongest practice for me and brings me almost immediately to the place that I had kind of discovered on my own after hours of meditating Douglas Harding wrote us I guess what you could refer to as a kind of spiritual classic thin volume kind of like yours called On Having No Head
