Kniha odhaluje řadu jednoduchých, ale účinných postupů, které mohou být začleněny do každodenního života a mohou pomoci prolomit kruh neštěstí, stresu, úzkosti a psychického vyčerpání a podpořit skutečnou radost ze života. Kognitivní terapie všímavosti (MBCT) Kniha je založena na kognitivní terapii všímavosti (MBCT), což je jednoduchá forma meditace všímavosti, která zabere jen pár minut denně. Je klinicky prokázáno, že MBCT je přinejmenším stejně tak účinná jako léky na depresi a funguje i u lidí, kteří nejsou v depresi, ale snaží se držet krok s neustálými požadavky moderního světa. Zapomeňte na stres a vstupte do světa míru, vyrovnanosti a štěstí Všímavost pomáhá zvýšit každému z nás míru jeho štěstí a důvěry, zároveň však také snižuje úzkost, stres a podrážděnost.

Mindfulness-based approaches to medicine, psychology, neuroscience, healthcare, education, business leadership, and other major societal institutions have become increasingly common. New paradigms are emerging from a confluence of two powerful and potentially synergistic epistemologies: one arising from the wisdom traditions of Asia and the other arising from post-enlightenment empirical science. This book presents the work of internationally renowned experts in the fields of Buddhist scholarship and scientific research, as well as looking at the implementation of mindfulness in healthcare and education settings. Contributors consider the use of mindfulness throughout history and look at the actual meaning of mindfulness whilst identifying the most salient areas for potential synergy and for potential disjunction. Mindfulness: Diverse Perspectives on its Meanings, Origins and Applications provides a place where wisdom teachings, philosophy, history, science and personal meditation practice meet. It was originally published as a special issue of Contemporary Buddhism .
