The Little Book of Mindfulness: Focus, Slow Down, De-Stress

Description

More and more of us are suffering from the stresses and strains of modern life. Mindfulness is an increasingly popular discipline that can not only help alleviate the symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression brought on by the pressures of our daily existence but can actually bring calm, joy and happiness into our lives. In The Little Book of Mindfulness, Elizabeth Linley, herself a practitioner for over 30 years, has gathered together a seminal collection of over 150 techniques, tips, exercises, advice and guided meditations that will enable people at every level to follow the breath, still the mind and relax the body, whilst generating and boosting a feeling of well-being and contentment that will permeate every aspect of everyday life. The perfect little gift to bring lasting happiness and peace for friends and family.

Tiddy Rowan practised meditation for the first time in 1971 and has been a student ever since. Her life-long journey has taken her into all aspects of self-awareness and an uncluttered mind, incorporating teachings from Lao Tzu, Buddha, Gurdjieff, Krishnamurti, Thich Nhat Hanh to the Zen masters as well as most current techniques of cognitive therapy. Through a practice of simple techniques lasting but a few minutes a day she has found enduring peace and happiness whilst living a fast-paced urban life.
