Resumen del Editor

This program was previously published as Get Some Headspace: How Mindfulness Can Change Your Life in Ten Minutes a Day.

Quiet the mind, feel less stressed and less tired, and achieve a new level of calm and fulfillment in just ten minutes a day.

Andy Puddicombe, a former Buddhist monk, the Voice of Headspace, and the UK's foremost mindfulness expert, is on a mission: to get people to take 10 minutes out of their day to sit in the here and now.

Like his readers and students, Andy began his own meditation practice as a normal, busy person with everyday concerns, and he has since designed a program of mindfulness and guided meditation that fits neatly into a jam-packed daily routine - proving that just 10 minutes a day can make a world of difference.

Accessible and portable, The Headspace Guide to Meditation and Mindfulness offers simple but powerful meditation techniques that positively impact every area of physical and mental health: from productivity and focus, to stress and anxiety relief, sleep, weight-loss, personal relationships...the benefits are limitless. The result? More headspace, less stress. Andy brings this ancient practice into the modern world, tailor made for the most time starved among us.

• Switch off after work
• Fall asleep at night
• Feel less anxious, sad, or angry
• Control your cravings

An amazing book!

This is an amazing book. It's an unusually comprehensive look into the principles, techniques and applications of mindfulness and meditation. A true potential life changer. I was captivated from beginning to end and will be referring to it again and again.

Much needed For me (#ASMR)

My experience...

It gives me a birds eye view of monk’s life. And helps me to understand difference between the meditation and mindfulness. During my course of reading this book I felt more content with myself and things around me. And makes me feel good about being present. Finally and most importantly how to I have learned to integrate mindfulness on daily basis. This helps me to Change my prescription of life with the compassion and kindnesses, try yourself.

How is it?
First thing I want to mention the author voice is dope as ASMR. This book covers all the misconceptions about meditation. Most interesting part of the book is experience of the author as a monk, he just clarifies every possible pitfalls faced by everyone during their meditation. And how to incorporate mindfulness in your everyday life.

Try to explore yourself via mindfulness.

Let it Be

Subscribing to Headspace and using it regularly was definitely augmented by listening to this audiobook. All I can ask for now is for Andy to get in contact with Joe Rogan and make it on the podcast! 😌

Insights for the practicing meditator

I enjoyed what Andy had to offer through his experience as a monk in varying locations. they offered a balanced level of storytelling and teaching to help me trust and understand his approach.

Very informative for beginners.

It took a while to keep focused on listening, as Andy does have a very relaxing peaceful voice. Sometimes I would find myself dozing off, and so would just pause until I was ready to continue it another time. I like that the chapters are split up, and you can snooze it after a chapter ends. And although it is serious to focus, I like the humor in some of his stories that would lighten the mood and make me laugh. Now understanding the concepts of meditation more I am ready to use the Headspace app. I definitely recommend it for any beginners like me.

Get a grip on yourself.

I chose a 5 star rating because this is a great book with practical advise about how to meditate/be mindful for real, average people. It walks you one step at a time through the reasoning and actual process of meditating. Andy sprinkles studies throughout the book that support sound reasoning for practicing mindfulness lending credibility to the purpose and benefits of the activity as well as Andy. Andy’s own personal experiences as a monk and using meditation/mindfulness in his life also lends tremendous credibility as well as fun/informative stories that make Andy’s teaching easier to remember when doing your own practice. I personally used the accompanying Headspace app for a year prior to getting this Audible book. The book was a great compliment and further study of meditation to the App. I would recommend both to anyone wanting to get a grip on meditation/mindfulness and themselves. Thanks.
