1.The Mindful Way Through Depression: Freeing Yourself from Chronic Unhappiness: Guided Meditation Practices for the Mindful Way Through Depression by: J. Mark G. Williams, John D. Teasdale, Zindel V. Segal, Jon Kabat-Zinn July 01, 2007

This book is an excellent guide to the technique of mindfulness. The principles of mindfulness are essentially very simple but amazingly effective. It's something that we all forget to do, and this book serves as a powerful reminder to bring our attention away from our thoughts and into our experience. The authors are free of academic jargon and are clearly passionate and extremely knowledgeable about the benefits of mindfulness, and the book is clearly not just for people who might be suffering from depression. I recommend it highly along with Eckhart Tolle's the Power of Now, and Steve Taylor's Making Time Making Time: Why Time Seems to Pass at Different Speeds and How to Control It, which uses mindfulness as a way of living in the present ...

2.Guided Mindfulness Meditation (Guided Mindfulness) by: Jon Kabat-Zinn October 24, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £25.00 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £51.09
This audiobook consists of two CDs. The first is the author talking about meditation, and this CD is wonderful to listen to. He has a really nice voice to listen to and talks as if he is just talking to you alone. He makes if feel as if Meditation is available to everyone, and anyone can do this, which is true, but so helpful to a beginner to be reassured that it is within their reach. The second CD is a set of progressive meditations, quite short, but each one taking you a stage further on. I found them really helpful to work through, as it got me to a stage where I could continue alone. I am a beginner at this but have found this audiobook very helpful and I do actually find it works. If you want to begin Meditation and find the market ... Read More:

3.Full Catastrophe Living: How to Cope with Stress, Pain and Illness Using Mindfulness Meditation by: Jon Kabat-Zinn February 22, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £20.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £13.00 You Save: £7.00 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £11.15
I had high hopes for this book, having read the reviews. However, after struggling through the near-500 pages, I felt compelled to place my own review as a counter-balance. This book could have been a third of the size if Jon Kabat-Zinn didn't wafle so much. As with his CD's, he likes to prattle on, constantly repeating the same points until your mind goes numb from sheer boredon. He does make a few good suggestions - unfortunately they are lost in all of the waffle. I purchased this book because I thought it might help my insomnia - it did, but only because I got so bored reading it that I fell asleep!

I wanted to provide a review as a counter-balance to the other, more positive reviews. I am currently reading 'Full Catastrophe Living' and purchased the CD to help me practice meditation. To be honest, I wish I'd stuck to just the book! Jon seems like a lovely, compassionate man but I find him incredibly annoying! I tried the 'eating meditation' first and could not stop myself from giggling everytime he said the word 'raisin'! I love the New York accent but, unfortunately, I do not find it relaxing. His constant repetition, particularly of the words 'moment...by moment...by moment...by moment...by moment' (you get the picture!) is irritating beyond belief. A lot of the time I just wsished he'd shut up and leave me to it! I suspect Jon ... Read More:

5.Wherever You Go, There You Are by: Jon Kabat-Zinn August 26, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £12.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £8.44 You Save: £4.55 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £7.28
People consider this book a contemporary classic on meditation for good reasons. It's lovely and accessible. Jon Kabat-Zinn tackles the difficult task of explaining the nonverbal practice of meditation, which many find alien or even threatening, and makes it accessible, useful and even homey. He explains meditation not only with references to classic texts, but also by recounting his own experiences, drawing parallels with Thoreau, and discussing work and family contexts. The chapters are brief, some as short as a page, each focusing on a single topic. Many are accompanied with prompting questions or simple exercises you can try immediately. getAbstract recommends this book to people interested in reducing their stress, deepening their self-awareness ...

6.Coming to Our Senses: Healing Ourselves and the World Through Mindfulness by: Jon Kabat-Zinn February 03, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: £20.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: £12.99 You Save: £7.01 (35%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: £11.72
At 600-plus pages, this deeply philosophical book may challenge some readers. But Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, an accomplished scientist, thinker and author, imparts his wisdom in short, easily digestible chapters. He says you can have a more peaceful, contented life if you are open to exploring the spiritual realm and the practice of mindful meditation. Kabat-Zinn, who cites studies and personal experiences, presents convincing evidence that meditation reduces everyday stress, and can help treat depression and fear, chronic pain, cancer and other serious illnesses. We believe that everyone can benefit from reading this mindful treatise - even those who are already healthy, wealthy and wise. Highly recommended.

This is the best introduction to meditation I have come across. Both men talk with authority, yet with a gentle and compassionate tone. Jon Kabat-Zinn's voice and words are wonderfully effective in directing you through the meditation process.
