<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>An easy-to-implement program, based on Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, to bring relief to chronic sufferers of depression</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>For nearly two decades, Dr. Stuart Eisendrath has been researching and teaching the therapeutic effects of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) with people experiencing clinical depression. By helping them recognize that they can find relief by changing how they <em>relate</em> to their thoughts, Eisendrath has seen dramatic improvements in people's quality of life, as well as actual, measurable brain changes. Easily practiced breath exercises, meditations, and innovative visualizations release readers from what can often feel like the tyranny of their thoughts. Freedom of thought, feeling, and action is the life-altering result.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Stuart Eisendrath was the first to bring mindfulness to people with treatment-resistant depression and show that it can be of major benefit. The key point is that through regular practice, you can transform <em>your relationship</em> with your thoughts and emotions and with unwanted and painful experiences rather than forcing them to go away, which they will not. This realization, when enacted, is life-changing in little ways that aren't so little. Indeed, it can be profoundly liberating."<br /> <strong>-- Jon Kabat-Zinn, PhD, founder of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) and author of <em>Falling Awake </em>and <em>The Healing Power of Mindfulness<br /> </em></strong><br /> "This authoritative guide from a world-class expert is warm, supportive, and chock-full of practical help. With many simple exercises and lots of down-to-earth suggestions, it's also grounded in cutting-edge brain science. If you struggle with depression or know someone who does, this is a phenomenal resource."<br /> <strong>-- Rick Hanson, PhD, author of <em>Hardwiring Happiness: The New Brain Science of Contentment, Calm, and Confidence<br /> </em></strong><br /> "This book is a gift to people with depression who are looking for ways to ease their pain. By combining the wisdom of mindfulness and self-compassion practice with more standard therapeutic approaches, this book offers an empirically supported pathway out of depression that works and that has the power to change your life."<br /> <strong>-- Kristin Neff, PhD, author of <em>Self-Compassion</em> and associate professor of educational psychology at the University of Texas, Austin<br /> </strong><br /> "Our mind can be our best friend or our worst enemy.

With encouragement and compassion, Dr. Eisendrath guides the reader through the process of developing a mindfulness practice that shapes and nurtures a new relationship with the thoughts that fuel depression -- a relationship filled with self-acceptance, self-compassion, and peaceful coexistence with our minds."<br /> <strong>-- Michael A. Tompkins, PhD, ABPP, codirector of the San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy, assistant clinical professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, and author of <em>Anxiety and Avoidance: A Universal Treatment for Anxiety, Panic, and Fear<br /> </em></strong><br /> "The title of this book is very apt. As a faculty member at the UCSF Depression Center, I have seen patients in my clinical and teaching practices respond beautifully to Dr. Eisendrath's mindfulness-based cognitive therapy for depression, even those who did not respond to or could not tolerate antidepressant medication. I have become a staunch believer, and I am so glad that this book will bring Dr. Eisendrath's techniques and approaches to a much larger audience of clinicians and patients alike."<br /> <strong>-- Owen Wolkowitz, MD, professor of psychiatry and codirector of the UCSF Depression Center, University of California, San Francisco<br /> <br /> </strong>"Provides not only hope for people suffering depression, but also practical tools."<br /> <strong>-- <em>Greater Good Magazine</em><br /> <br /> </strong><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><strong>Stuart J.
