Mindfulness Meditation

Cultivating the Wisdom of Your Body and Mind

De: Jon Kabat-Zinn

Narrado por: Jon Kabat-Zinn

Mindfulness Meditation is about learning to experience life fully as it unfolds - moment by moment. One popular misconception about meditation is that it is a way to make your mind blank so you can escape from what you are feeling. However, author Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn wants you to understand that meditation is an invitation to wake up, experience the fullness of your life, and transform your relationship with your problems, your fears, and any pain and stress in your life so that they don't wind up controlling you and eroding the quality of your life and your creativity. It is not about running away, or manipulating mental states.

Through the practice of mindfulness, you can learn to develop greater calmness, clarity and insight in facing and embracing all your life experiences, even life's trials, and turning them into occasions for learning, growing and deepening your own strength and wisdom.

In this program, internationally-known meditation teacher Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn shows you how to:

• Access your own deep inner resources for learning, growing, and healing
• Enrich your experience of everyday living by being fully present in the moment
• Reduce stress by responding creatively rather than reacting mindlessly
• Bring greater clarity and understanding to everything you do
• Function more effectively within your apparent limitations and problems by cultivating your fundamental strengths
• Reestablish contact with your physical body to heighten and expand experiences of pleasure and vitality
• Reduce or overcome addictive or self-destructive behavior patterns
• Develop a strong daily meditation practice

Alert! African leaders MUST read this!!

As an African woman on a journey of mindfulness, I am of the view that if we are to truly heal the wounds of our past, grow our economy and lead as Mandela once did - we need to practice selfcare. This book is an excellent beginning! Wherever you are in your life... this book and its teaching will be a source of strength for self, development of self and a demonstration of self care. I have come a fan of his work as a result of this title and the positive impact it has had on my life.

Great way to begin your mindfulness practice!

This is really a great way to begin your mindfulness practice. I am using this as one of many tools in my DBT toolbox.

Another classic from Kabat

Like all his other works, I've listened to this several times through. Jon Kabat-Zinn is a wonderful gift to the world. I listen before bed because his message and voice are so soothing I can't help but let go of the days worries and accept the healing calm of sleep with an empty mind.

Life changing book

Loved this book! I will listen it again and again again for the years to come.

From the Best

A great basic resource to have with JKZ himself narrating.

Can be used anytime (except while driving) and build a daily practice or revisited for help.
