Appreciate your life, which consists of the moment you live

“Everything can become the teacher of that moment by reminding us of the possibility of being completely in the moment: the way the air gently caresses our skin, the play of light, the expression on someone's face, a contraction passing through the body, a thought that comes to our mind. Anything. Everything. Of course, if it is met with awareness.”
JON KABAT-ZINN


YOU ARE INVITED TO ADD AWARENESS TO YOUR LIFE

“We may long for wholeness,” says Jon Kabat-Zinn, but in fact wholeness already exists and is ours. The practice of mindfulness holds not just the possibility of a temporary feeling of contentment, but the true embrace of a deeper unity that envelops and permeates our lives. With Mindfulness for Beginners, we invite you to learn to change the way you think, feel, love, work and play, thereby awakening to your true self and living your true self as a whole.
Jon Kabat-Zinn, the first teacher, scientist, and physician to reveal the benefits of mindfulness for modern Western medicine, offers you a book that you can benefit from in three different ways: a collection of thoughts and practices to be opened and explored at random, an illuminating and immersive reading experience from beginning to end, and mindfulness. A guide of basic principles that is a “lesson for every day” on its application.
Beginners and long-time meditators alike will find here a summary of the attitudes and core practices that Jon Kabat-Zinn finds most helpful for his students:
• Why open-heartedness is synonymous with true awareness
• The value of returning to our bodies and senses again and again.
• The way our thoughts “free themselves” when touched with awareness
• Being able to transcend our personal “narrative” and move directly to experience
• Maintaining balance in our attention and presence among daily activities
• Three poisons that cause suffering and their antidotes
• The healing power of awareness
• Restoring our integrity and much more
The recipe for living life with more awareness seems simple enough: paying attention, over and over again, to what's going on. But if you've tried it before, you know that this is where all the questions and difficulties begin. Mindfulness for Beginners offers answers, insights, and knowledge to help us, moment by moment, in the process of establishing a broader, clear, trusting, and loving connection with ourselves and the world.


“Jon Kabat-Zinn is one of the best mindfulness teachers you can find.”
