The practice of mindfulness holds the possibility of not just a fleeting sense of contentment, but a true embracing of a deeper unity that envelops and permeates our lives. With <i>Mindfulness for Beginners</i> you are invited to learn how to transform your relationship to the way you think, feel, love, work, and play--and thereby awaken to and embody more completely who you really are. <p/> Here, the teacher, scientist, and clinician who first demonstrated the benefits of mindfulness within mainstream Western medicine offers a book that you can use in three unique ways: as a collection of reflections and practices to be opened and explored at random; as an illuminating and engaging start-to-finish read; or as an unfolding lesson-a-day primer on mindfulness practice.<br> Beginning and long-time meditators alike will discover in these pages a valuable distillation of the key attitudes and essential practices that Jon Kabat-Zinn has found most useful with his students, including: <p/> - Why heartfulness is synonymous with true mindfulness<br> - The value of coming back to our bodies and to our senses over and over again<br> - How our thoughts self-liberate when touched by awareness<br> - Moving beyond our story into direct experience<br> - Stabilizing our attention and presence amidst daily activities<br> - Three fundamental mental factors that cause suffering<br> - How mindfulness heals, even after the fact<br> -Reclaiming our wholeness, and more <p/> The prescription for living a more mindful life seems simple enough: return your awareness again and again to whatever is going on. But if you've tried it, you know that here is where all the questions and challenges really begin. <i>Mindfulness for Beginners</i> provides welcome answers, insights, and instruction to help us make that shift, moment by moment, into a more spacious, clear, reliable, and loving connection with ourselves and the world. <p/><i><b>Includes digital access to five guided mindfulness meditations by Jon Kabat-Zinn, selected from the audio program that inspired this book.</b></i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Jon Kabat-Zinn is one of the finest teachers of mindfulness you will ever encounter." --JACK KORNFIELD, author of A Path with Heart <p/>"Jon Kabat-Zinn provides access to the essence of meditation and its applications for both the beginner and those who wish to deepen and expand their practice.
