This week I am reviewing the blog Tiny Buddha, which was founded and is maintained by Lori Deschene.

What this blog is about 

This was one of the first blogs I started to read when I wanted to start changing my life a few years ago. It is fantastic. Tiny Buddha is about reflecting on simple wisdom and learning new ways to apply it to our complex lives—complete with responsibilities, struggles, dreams, and relationships. Over the last four years, Tiny Buddha has emerged as a leading resource for peace and happiness, with more than two million monthly readers.

You’ll find posts about happiness, motivation, inspiration, love, relationships, meaning, possibilities, mindfulness, and letting go. Much of it has its roots in Buddhism, but this is not a site about religion. It’s about ideas that make sense and make a big difference when applied.

Why I love this blog

The wisdom in this blog has helped me through so much crap in the last three years. If you are experiencing hard times, I recommend going to read about other people's experiences. This blog is all about empathy with other people; chances are you are not alone in any of your experiences.

The other great things are the forums, where you can talk and interact with other people. Check out the quotes that are famous on Tiny Buddha. The founder, Lori, also has an ecourse, Recreate Your Life Story. There are also several great books written with the Tiny Buddha philosophy.

Check all of it out and find what is useful for you :)
