A Walk in the Wood

Meditations on Mindfulness with a Bear Named Pooh

The benefits of mindfulness are well recognized: greater peace of mind, less stress, and the opportunity to work through and transform thoughts, memories, and worries. It also fosters equanimity, helping us accept the changes and challenges life brings.

In our frantic world, who better to guide listeners through this transformative practice than a long-beloved bear who has perfected the art of simply being?

"Just two things to do to truly be Pooh - just be present and kind," he says.

And, not coincidentally, he lives in the woods. There is a growing acknowledgment of the benefits of deeply experiencing nature. The calming quality of sounds like running water and rustling leaves, the soothing properties of smells like lavender and chamomile, and the emotional comfort of beautiful natural vistas are well known.

A Walk in the Wood is both inspiring and instructive. Simple stories with clearly stated goals and easy-to-follow exercises provide all the tools you'll need to take the first step, or continue on your journey, toward a quieter and calmer way of living.

Relaxing, thought provoking

Enjoyable, mindfulness, encouraging seeing the present in our every day moments. I have always loved Winnie The Pooh!

the messages

I enjoyed the story telling and the explanation of the underlying meaning. It helped me relate to my own journey

The world according to Pooh.

Excellent book. It's a wonderful comparison to The Tao of Pooh which is actually a great way to live your life.

So cute

This is so helpful, and I love Pooh bear. There’s really great information that can be used and I really love how well everything is explained.

The soothing voice.

I liked the way the story transitioned in the meditation. You can never go wrong with Pooh.

Reflective and insightful

Who would've thought that you can combine meditative reflections to Winnie the Pooh and friends? I love that this combination works. It made me realize that finding moments to get lost in aimless walks is indeed good for the soul. And that also doing so with friends...to get aimless with them is also healthy. So glad to have this moment at work (printing conference certificates) to get to listen to this book. I will definitely cherish more those solo, quiet moments from now on.

Introduction to Mindfulness

Great way to start and understand simple ways to practice mindfulness and simply taking life in. There are a lot of useful ways to keep you on track. He is a very good speaker. If you are into golf, try his other audiobooks.

A blessing for Elijah and Jeremiah Mcintyre

it was an amazing out look at life. I entend to listen to it many times. And to practice what I have heard. As I live on a mountain in the middle of a forest. I'm 68 years young and life has slowed down to where it has become very enjoyable. I'm sending a copy to my grandsons. I hope my daughter reads it to them many times . Thank you!!!
