Publisher's Summary

Discover how to become more present, stop feeling overwhelmed, and let go of fear and anxiety.

Worry. Stress. Constantly, unpredictably swinging emotions. Habits you want and need to break, but seem completely unable to. The feeling of being constantly pushed and pulled by forces beyond your control. Never quite feeling like you belong.

All of these life challenges are covered in the book: Mindfulness for Beginners: 28 Steps to Becoming More Present through Mindfulness Meditation.

This book will be a good fit if you:

• Regularly experience anxiety and fear throughout the day
• Suffer from panic attacks
• Routinely feel tense and restless
• Feel drained and tired
• Are easily distracted
• Feel like your life is out of control
• Experience moods of sadness or even depression
• Wish you wouldn't worry so much

If you're human, these frustrating attributes of existence are a part of your life, they sour multiple other aspects of it, and you wish you could be rid of them. Typical wisdom says that they are immutable and unavoidable - that all you should do is learn to live with them. This book is here to tell you that this is not so, and to give you the tools and instruction necessary to overcome them.

This book is meant for the beginner and will start you out on your journey of mindfulness. Everything in it is simple and easy to follow - it contains specific, easy-to-do tips and exercises, and because knowing why you're doing something and how it works helps to build your confidence in it, it also looks at the theory and concepts behind the practice of mindfulness in none-too-technical, easy-to-understand language.

NARRATOR: The narrator was excellent in sharing the author’s content. Great book, Great narrating.

OVERALL: The author did and exceptional job at taking a subject that can be scary to individuals new at mindfulness and made it doable. As a counselor this is the type of book that I would suggest to my clients who are just learning how to mediate. The author was down to earth.

If you know nothing about this subject and are just curious, this is the book for you. You may want to do some further reading, but hopefully you can be inspired by this book to be more aware of your thoughts throughout the day.

Was Mindfulness for Beginners worth the listening time?

It's a short book that tries to cover a lot, so it really is just a little taster of this subject. However, it's a nice little introduction to mindfulness that doesn't last too long.
