Publisher's Summary

Everyday life is so frantic and full of troubles that we have largely forgotten how to live a joyful existence. We try so hard to be happy that we often end up missing the most important parts of our lives. In Mindfulness, Oxford professor Mark Williams and award-winning journalist Danny Penman reveal the secrets to living a happier and less anxious, stressful, and exhausting life.

Based on the techniques of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy, the unique program developed by Williams and his colleagues, this book offers simple and straightforward forms of mindfulness meditation that can be done by anyone—and it can take just 10 to 20 minutes a day for the full benefits to be revealed.

Mark embodies Kabat-Zinn’s acceptance of life

A wonderful step by step way to live in our hectic world as well as the individual ups and downs we experience daily. The author and narrator engage me holding my attention long enough to give me peace.

A great introduction to meditation!

I have really enjoyed this audio book. It is helpful without being too long or complicated. If you are interested in getting into meditation this book is the perfect place to start.
The narrator has the most soothing calming voice and I enjoy the short daily meditation sessions.

no chapter titles??

I like this book but the lack of chapters titles makes it significantly less usable as a guide for practicing mindfulness
