Book 63: Full Catastrophe Living

This book is revised edition of the 1990 book by Jon Kabat-Zinn. It is a thorough description and explanation of the mindfulness-based stress reduction program started at the University of Massachusetts.



The program was originally developed for patients with chronic pain and other physical illnesses and conditions, but it can easily be applied to almost every stressful situation, whether physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual.

There is also an iPhone app of the guided meditations and mindful yoga that is only $3.99, so you can very easily get started on the meditation.

Confession: I loved the book and bought the app, but I have yet to complete an entire session of meditation. That's on my list of things to do as soon as possible!

Disclosure: I received a review copy of this book through NetGalley.
