About this listen

Nicholas Herman (c. 1605-1691) was born in Lorraine, France and served as a cook and shoe repairer at a Carmelite monastery. He was only a lay member of the order, and walked with a limp from injuries incurred as a soldier, yet his private thoughts provide a wellspring of devotional insight and refreshment.Public Domain (P)2008 christianaudio.com Christianity Ministry & Evangelism Spirituality Inspiring

Loved it. I wished the book for this version was available and the Maxim's were included. I still loved it. Another title for this book is How to Walk it Out God's Way. or Doing it God's Way.

I have experienced the presence of God through practicing mindfulness yet the tranquility and the perception shift mindfulness brings has been difficult to maintain in daily life when thought and activities demand attention. This has renewed my tranquility and I am making it a daily practice to listen at least once daily, more if available such as while commuting. I love that it is in the format of a monk's letters sharing practical how-to advice to someone asking him how he keeps his mind on God in the midst of worldly demands. This is exactly what I have been searching for. Thank you to Audibles, the translator and narrator for providing this! I recommend it for anyone, no matter what faith, the presence of God is universal, just found underneath all the noise of the mind.
