“From Pills to Peace – My Journey Into Meditation” by Midnight McBride

Midnight McBride’s life has changed quite drastically over the past five years. Drink and drug abuse, coupled with unyielding pressure and stress in both his work and personal life, created what he describes as a ‘mess’. Something had to give. Amongst the chaos, Midnight discovered meditation and his life gradually began to change. Although he admits his life is far from perfect, ‘it’s several light years away from where it used to be’, and most importantly, he is truly happy. Now a Buddhist, meditation teacher, author, guest speaker, radio presenter and podcast host. Midnight McBride’s mission is to promote good mental health by giving people the tools to alleviate stress and develop inner peace. His new book, From Pills To Peace, was number 1 in its category on Amazon. It describes the profound effect meditation has had on him and how it quite literally saved his life. Midnight McBride is regularly invited to be a guest speaker at various corporate, healthcare, community and private events; speaking for NHS Tinnitus Week and for the NHS Foster Carers Association. “Are you living in bliss? Most of us are not. We are suffering because of the way we think. Stress is our thoughts, born of the mind and therefore under our control. Through meditation, we can learn to reduce stress and develop inner peace. This book is about my Journey, how I arrived in this present moment. I had to take a very honest look at my life and also the world we live in. It isn’t easy, but it’s the first step towards freedom and the treasures that lie within. The answers you were looking for were here all along, inside your heart in the form of a song. Have you got the courage to sing it? It’s time to wake up! The other option is to stay asleep, eat
