Summary of 10% Happier 10th Anniversary: How I Tamed the Voice in My Head, Reduced Stress Without Losing My Edge, and Found Self-Help That Actually Works--A True Story

We all have an inner narrator—the voice that causes us to lose our temper, compulsively check emails, eat when we're not hungry, or obsess over the past and future instead of enjoying the present. Most of us think we’re stuck with this voice, unable to control it, but Harris discovered an effective way to rein it in.

10% Happier has become a classic on the power of meditation, offering an approachable and compelling introduction to the practice that has converted even the most hardened skeptics. With over a million copies sold, it remains the go-to guide for those curious about how meditation can improve their lives. Harris has become a pivotal figure in the field, having built a thriving platform that promotes the ideas he first shared in this book.

In the 10th Anniversary Edition, Harris includes a new preface reflecting on his personal growth and how public perceptions of meditation have evolved. The edition also features a revised and expanded appendix, packed with guided meditations and practical advice for anyone looking to establish a meditation habit.
