Product Description Mindfulness opens us up to the possibility of being fully human as we are, and of expressing the humane in our way of being. Mindlessness de facto closes us up and denies us the fullness of our being alive. This book may on the surface appear to be merely another offering in the genre of daily readings. But deep within these 108 selections lie messages of profound wisdom in a contemporary and practical form that can lead to both healing and transformation. We so urgently need to rotate in consciousness in order to safeguard what precious sanity is available to us on this planet. How we carry ourselves will determine the direction the world takes because, in a very real way, we are the world we inhabit. Our world is continuously being shaped by our participation in everything around us and within us through mindfulness. This is the great work of awareness. Welcome to the threshold ? to the fullness of arriving at your own door!
Mindfulness Lessons November 22, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was a little disappointed when I received the book. I was expecting something bigger. This one is small with 108 "mini" lessons. I use it was the end to my exercise and yoga routine each morning, reading one lesson per day. It's a nice way to start the day and keep me grounded. I always find insight in Jon Kabat-Zinn's writings.

This book is very though provoking and interesting and has beautiful peaceful photographic pictures. It is well written and a quick but deep meaningful read.

I have enjoyed reading this little book. I thought the essays would be longer, but I have found the content helpful to include in my morning meditations.
A book to share with the one you love August 10, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a small book filled with great wisdom though there are just a few sentences in each lesson. You learn about mindfulness easily. I have been reading this book loud to my husband this summer and it has created a mindfulness bond between us. I do recommened this little book.
