Mindful Thoughts for Surfers explores through 25 reflections how riding the waves is the ultimate meditation.

The heightened attention in surfing and the meditative nature of water facilitate the perfect opportunity to practise mindfulness. Sam Bleakley is an international longboard champion and advocate for all forms of waveriding. With an interest in Buddhism and Taoism, he discusses:

The connection to nature
​Dropping the ego
Embracing imperfection
Responsibility and diversity
The opportunity for play, beauty and music

Through these reflections, Sam explores how riding the waves is the ultimate meditation and offers an astute awareness of what the oceans tell us about our place in the natural world – if we would just listen. His illuminating meditations, each beautifully illustrated, make this book perfect for dipping into and offer a gentle gateway into life-affirmingawareness for everyone.
