Breathing in Bodhi-the General Awareness/Comprehension-Life Skills Level 2-Avid

The paradigm shift in the field of education focuses on the development of life skills, attitudes and values. This was the prime focus which made us divide this series into two themes: LIFE SKILLS and ATTITUDES & VALUES.
Each theme strongly voices out in three levels - beginners, the avid readers and the experts making it a six book series.
The book "Breathing in Bodhi - the General Awareness/ Comprehension book - Life Skills/ Level  2 for the avid readers" is the second of the three books based on the Life Skills theme.
