Capturing Mindfulness
by Matthew JohnstoneThere are few better ways to consciously slow down and truly engage with your surroundings than when you are armed with a camera. With Capturing Mindfulness, de-stressing and being in the moment needn't be limited to simple diary-keeping and fill-in journals; instead you can capture it with your lens. Bestselling author Matthew Johnstone's latest book Capturing Mindfulness, is a natural follow on from his last book Quiet the Mind which came out in 2012.Matthew has been practicing what he terms 'photopresent' for the last 15 years and believes that next to meditation, this is one of the most creative and enjoyable ways to attain mindfulness in day-to-day life. The very essence of photography; after all, is all about focus and capturing 'the moment'.Matthew is fascinated by light, colour, composition and most importantly how he can see the world differently. For him, having camera in your hands is the reminder to consciously slow everything down from your breath, to your walk, to your thoughts and begin to really observe your surroundings as if seeing them for the first time.Mindfulness photography is about seeing something that no one else can, capturing something that will never happen again and finding beauty where it doesn't typically exist. When we become more consciously aware of where we are, what we're doing and what we're thinking, life can become calmer, more enjoyable and generally more manageable.

The Cardinal Stritch Story
by Marie C. BuehrleClassic biography of Cardinal Samuel Stritch (1887-1958), who served as archbishop of Chicago and Cardinal.“Samuel A. Stritch was a priest for forty-eight years and it can be said in all truth that his life was concentrated and wholly spent in the priesthood. When as a young man he felt the first stirrings of his priestly vocation, he began to reflect and meditate assiduously on the priesthood. Even in those early years he seemed to understand fully that in the Catholic Church there is only one High Priest, Christ Himself, and each individual priest is “another Christ.” This expression was for him the definition of the priest; he was fond of recalling it and commenting upon it, with a wealth of doctrine and warmth of spirit, whenever he spoke to priests.”
