<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Manage life's daily frustrations with practical & approachable mindfulness exercises. The practice of mindfulness has gone mainstream - but through its newfound popularity, the true meaning of mindfulness has become clouded. The terms "staying in the present" or "being in the moment" are often part of mindfulness practice - but what do they actually mean? What's the benefit? In Practicing Mindfulness, Matthew Sockolov, founder of One Mind Dharma, explains how "being in the present moment is only one aspect of the practice ... Mindfulness may be more completely understood as being present with clarity, wisdom, and kindness." Withing these pages, Sockolov will show you how to cultivate awareness and free yourself from fleeting emotions so you can "hit the pause button, calm yourself, and handle stressful situations with confidence and ease."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Calm the mind and find peace with these simple mindfulness meditations </strong></p><p>Mindfulness is an evidence-based method for reducing stress, enhancing resilience, and maintaining mental well-being. Even short meditations can turn a bad day around, ground us in the present moment, and help us approach life with gratitude and kindness. </p><p><em>Practicing Mindfulness</em> was created by the founder of One Mind Dharma. He developed these 75 essential exercises to offer practical guidance for anyone who wants to realize the benefits of mindful meditation. This includes expert advice on dealing with distorted or wandering thoughts and how to handle mental blocks. </p><p>Early meditations in <em>Practicing Mindfulness</em> take just 5 minutes and are highly accessible. As they progress, exercises grow with the reader, building on previous lessons to develop a transformative mindfulness practice. With meditations designed for specific situations or emotions, even experienced practitioners will have a continuing resource for mindfulness at every moment. </p><p>Begin a journey of peace and patience today on the path to a calmer, more balanced life with <em>Practicing Mindfulness</em>. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Written with great clarity and care, Matthew Sokolov's book is an excellent tutorial in learning how to begin and sustain a mindfulness practice and meditation in one's life."<strong>--Sharon Salzberg, author of <em>Real Happiness and Real Love</em></strong></p> <p>The best thing about <em>Practicing Mindfulness</em> is that it is <em>practice</em> based. Rather than espousing theories of <em>why</em> we should be mindful, Matthew artfully shows is precisely <em>how</em>. The practices within are clear, easy to learn, and easy to remember. This way we can use them when we need them! I would recommend this book to anyone new to meditation and to those who are experienced meditators.<strong>--Darren Littlejohn, author of <em>The 12-Step Buddhist</em>, http: //the12stepbuddhist.com</strong></p> <p>Habits are difficult to change. Our ways of behaving and thinking become ingrained in our neural networks, and this often causes us to act without forethought or reflection. But there is a space between stimulus and response, and by practicing mindfulness, we can increase the space between the two. This is where Matthew Sockolov's book comes in. <em>Practicing Mindfulness</em> demystifies mindfulness practice, and is a wonderful--and necessary--addition to existing literature.<strong>--Sonnee D. Weedn, Ph.D.</strong></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Matthew Sockolov</strong> is a mindfulness meditation teacher trained by Spirit Rock Meditation Center in Northern California. The founding teacher of One Mind Dharma, Matthew leads meditations at One Mind Dharma's center in Northern California, addiction treatment centers across California, and in online groups.</p>
