Teach Us to Sit Still

A Sceptic's Search for Health and Healing

  • Tim Parks



An inspiring and entertaining true story of a sceptic's journey into the world of meditation and alternative health.

Teach Us to Sit Still by Tim Parks "Riveting . . . Parks' discoveries will fascinate not only writers but all citizens of an information age steeped in and propelled by language." —The New Yorker "[Tim Parks'] prose is mordantly funny, self-conscious but never self-pitying, worldly but introspective, attuned to the needs of a soul that he considers thoroughly material and mortal. The result is an absorbing, at times inspiring, narrative of spiritual growth." —Publishers Weekly, starred review
