Reseñas de la Crítica

"A practical guide not only to mindfulness meditation and healing, but daily life." (Joseph Goldstein, author of One Dharma)
"Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn eloquently explains the power of paying attention and increasing awareness. I strongly recommend this book for everyone who wants to begin healing [to] their life." (Dean Ornish, M.D.)

Slowing Down Time Itself

Sometimes we gotta listen to something like that: soothing, motivational, relaxing, healthy. Better, we gotta listen to it on a regular basis. The book focus on concentrating in the moment, instead of thinking about the past or wondering about the future. We have to listen to our body, learn how to breathe, being fully there.
Jon Kabat-Zinn has a penetrating voice that convinced me to practice mindfulness.
Great book!

[If this review helped, please press YES. Thanks!]

good stuff

this audio book really helped me get to the ideas in thia book. excellent abridged version

Don’t let the old copyright deter you

This book is as relevant today as it was when it was written - if not more! For anyone coping with burnout, stress, or pandemic exhaustion, there is so much tried and true wisdom in this book. Even as a mindfulness skeptic, I found myself alternately moved to tears and shaken awake, invigorated by these ideas and the science that backs them up.

Present Moment Living

I want to be more mindful and the author describes different ways to live that way. I find observing pain and stress rather than reacting to it beneficial to my well being. I want appreciate the moments as they come rather than relying on negative connotations. Dr. Kabat-Zinn's work has introduced to me a new way to accept things as they come and let go.

Critical Information for Everyone

I appreciated the content, tone and flow. I only wish I had read this earlier in my life, BUT, it is never too late.

I an going to buy the paper book version so I can highlight and tate written notes.
