Mindfulness for Beginners: Reclaiming the Present Moment and Your Life By Jon Kabat - Zinn

Jon Kabat-Zinn introduces mindfulness as the practice of returning attention to present experience. Short reflections and exercises explore the body and senses, observing thoughts and sustaining awareness during everyday activities.

Mindfulness for Beginners can be read from beginning to end, consulted in individual passages or approached a lesson at a time. The emphasis is on developing a practice and a different relationship to experience, not achieving an instant or guaranteed result.
