chapter 55

Activity:

In this activity, you’ll write a brief book report. To start, just notice any thoughts and feelings that appeared when you read that first sentence. Did you think, Ugh, why is this mindfulness person making me write a book report? I’m not doing it. If I were you, I probably would have thought the same thing. However, this short book report is really a hook report—a story about a time when you got hooked by someone or something—when somebody or something pushed your buttons. Can you think of a time in the last couple of days when you got hooked by something? Maybe you lost your real book report because your computer crashed. Maybe a friend made a snarky comment about your outfit. Imagine the situation in detail, then answer the following questions.
