Resumen del Editor

Toronto Method Mindfulness Handbook is a thorough guide to the fundamental theory and practice of contemporary mindfulness meditation. It is a standalone resource for both beginning and intermediate practitioners. Through six lessons, Ari Kaplan explains the importance of balancing present moment awareness with loving-kindness, curiosity with non-identification, and intentional practice with the spontaneous experience of pure beingness. His teachings are rooted in well-recognized research methods, such as the Toronto Mindfulness Scale and emotion-focused mindfulness.

Listening to this book is a meditative experience in and of itself, and offers tools to:

• Enhance self-awareness and insight.
• Relieve stress.
• Notice biases and social conditioning.
• Alleviate mental suffering.
• Improve relationships with others and oneself.

Kaplan blends science, law, and philosophy with personal stories and shares his own experience with intergenerational trauma. He illustrates the likelihood of avoidance or spiritual bypassing on the way, and how self-compassion practices can open a doorway to healing deep pain.
