Sinossi
Per decenni Jon Kabat-Zinn ha mostrato a un pubblico sempre più ampio i benefici tangibili della meditazione. Oggi, milioni di persone hanno inserito nella propria vita la meditazione di consapevolezza come routine quotidiana. Ma in cosa consiste la meditazione nella pratica? Come si svolge una sessione formale di meditazione? E come possiamo superare gli ostacoli dovuti all’epoca di perpetua distrazione in cui viviamo e che ci impediscono di inserire la pratica della meditazione nella vita di tutti i giorni?
Risveglio risponde con chiarezza a queste domande sempre più urgenti. Pubblicato in origine come parte di Riprendere i sensi, è stato ampliato e aggiornato da una nuova prefazione dell’autore.

As a huge Jon Kabat-Zinn fan, I was thrilled to receive an ARC of this book from Netgalley, the publisher, and the author. Falling Awake is a slightly revised edition of Kabat-Zinn's earlier work, Coming to our Senses. However, it's as relevant today as it was a decade ago--perhaps even more so with Leggi tutto
Good advise though often vague and I would think a bit difficult for a newbie to navigate in beginning a practice but has very bright moments.
If you have ever wondered what it would be like to embody mindfulness of sound, breath, or movement, Kabat-Zinn has a masterful way of communicating this through the page despite the fact that it is a very personal experience. The first half of the book explores the different sensory components of m Leggi tutto
More of a journey into mindfulness. This book spends some time instructing the reader how to meditate, with several choices; lying down, standing up, sitting and walking. All good lessons. I think I’m going to spend some time just being mindful, then dive into one of the authors online mediation lec Leggi tutto
