Living the Season: Zen Practice for Transformative Times
![Jese Leos](https://encyclopedia.deedeebook.com/author/hunter-mitchell.jpg)
In these fast-paced, ever-changing times, it can be challenging to find stillness and presence. The constant bombardment of information and technology can leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and disconnected from ourselves and the world around us. Zen practice offers a path to living in the present moment and connecting with our true nature.
Zen is a Buddhist tradition that emphasizes mindfulness, meditation, and self-inquiry. It teaches us to let go of attachments and expectations, and to see the world as it truly is. By practicing Zen, we can develop greater self-awareness, compassion, and wisdom.
