Awakening Joy for Seniors by Jeff Wessman

Happiness is not for the lucky few—it’s a choice anyone can make. In his groundbreaking first book, written with Shoshana Alexander, Awakening Joy: 10 Steps to Happiness (A Bantam Books Hardcover). James Baraz, cofounder of Spirit Rock Meditation Center and renowned meditation teacher for more than 30 years, reveals his 10-step program, based on the curriculum of his popular “Awakening Joy” course, for how we can reorient our minds away from dissatisfaction and distraction and toward the contentment and delight that is abundantly available in our everyday lives.

The seven factors of awakening (bojjhaṅga)
  • Mindfulness (sati)
  • Investigation (dhamma-vicaya)
  • Energy (vīriya)
  • Rapture (pīti)
  • Tranquility (passaddhi)
  • Concentration (samādhi)
  • Equanimity (upekkhā)
