Book • 2024
In '10% Happier,' Dan Harris shares his personal journey of discovering the benefits of meditation.

The book explores how meditation can reduce stress, improve focus, and enhance overall well-being without compromising one's ambition or edge.
Harris emphasizes the importance of mindfulness in making one more resilient and better equipped to handle life's challenges, though it does not eliminate problems entirely.
