Why conversation? -- Be mindful -- Be kind -- Enrich your world -- Strive for conversational excellence.

Author Mipham Sakyong uses the basic principles of the Shambhala tradition--meditation and a sincere belief in the inherent wisdom, compassion, and courage of all beings--to help readers to listen and speak more mindfully with loved ones, co-workers, strangers, and even ourselves. In this book, Sakyong Mipham provides ideas and tips on how to be more present in your day-to-day life, helping us to communicate in ways that elevates the dignity of everyone involved. For families, employees and employers who spend too much time on Facebook, Instagram, and feel "disconnected" in our "connected" world, Good Conversation is a journey back to basics.
