Mindfulness for beginners : reclaiming the present moment--and your life

Kabat-Zinn, Jon. (Author). Richardson, Stan, (performer.).

Summary: "Here, the teacher, scientist, and clinician who first demonstrated the benefits of mindfulness within mainstream Western medicine offers a book that you can use in three unique ways; as a collection of reflections and practices to be opened and explored at random; as an illuminating and engaging start-to-finish read; or as an unfolding 'lesson-a-day' primer on mindfulness practice."--Provided by publisher.
