The Little Book of Mindfulness: 10 minutes a day to less stress, more peace (The Little Book Series)

I bought this for a friends mum. I use mindfulness everyday in my life to help me deal with panick attacks and anxiety that absorbed my life. My friends mum is going through a difficult time. So I wrote a hand written message inside and gave it to her. In hope this technique can give her some inner peace like it has me. This book is only basic. But it's a good introduction to anyone that may fear change or new techniques. It's not daunting or overwhelming with info. I hope this little snipbit of a book will encourage her to look more in depth into the subject. I think this book would be good for anyone in a similar position looking for a starting point.

I have found this little book very helpful, I have been going through a lot of stress over the last 6 months or so with my husband being very poorly. This book gives many methods for relaxation. I have liked it so much that I have now enrolled on a 6 week course of Mindfulness. Of course it will not take away the illness from my husband but it will certainly help me get through it. I am even trying to get him to practice some of the breathing exercises. I would thorough recommend this little book.

Some decent tips and advice but if you're looking for a comprehensive guide this isn't it. However, it is most certainly a useful and easy starter which will help you decide if this sort of meditative, contemplative thing is for you. And, since most of the exercises only take a few minutes, it's hardly demanding on your time. I was a bit sceptical but I got enough out of this book to want to discover more. If you've got the same, sceptical nature as me I'd recommend you start with this inexpensive but surprisingly effective introduction to mindfulness.

I bought this for a friend going through a low patch in his depression so although I haven't read it myself I've had some positive feedback. The simple 10 minute ideas help to make actions manageable and help shake the reader from their negative comfort zone, allowing room for change. All the ideas appear to be simple and doable but focus on positive experiences and giving full attention to your own actions thoughts and feelings. Suggestions such as eating a meal without any distractions, fo using on the flavours, textures and experience of eating can make you think twice about scrolling through emails on your phone at meal times or feeling the need to always be doing two things at once. I thouroughly recommend showing a friend or loved one you care by buying them this book.

Sweet little book with a good idea behind it, but after purchasing it is still sitting unused on my bedside. You need to want and exercise your mindfulness to use it daily, i.e. say to yourself it's time to do a task from it (by which point you're already mindful of here and now by the way...).

I tend to get all stressed and am constantly thinking about the next thing to do before I have completed the current one. This book is a godsend, it has taught me to live for the moment, to become aware of every breath you take, every action you perform, every thing you say, do, etc. I practice mindful eating and have done so for a long time now and have found that I enjoy and savour the food so much. Now I am applying that technique to everyday living and performing of duties. It is not easy to do at first you have to keep on practicising, but as they say practice makes perfect. You really have to train yourself before it all comes as second nature, but it is SO worth it in the end.

Wow what an amazing little book full of all kinds of different things to do each day!! Things i didnt even know from mindfullness. Il be starting this book today.. Cant wait. I give all gratitude towards the author. Id defo recommend this!! From my own problems i know this will help me, guide me, looking forward to doing them all!!! Even my counsellor thinks its great!!

This book is just as was advertised. Arrived promptly. I only received this book six days and am enjoying the read so far. Overall, it is a bit soon for me to be evaluating same, but as I already wrote I am enjoying its content, so have awarded it 4 Stars. In time I may well award it 5 Stars.

جيد

Orientações pequenas, rápidas e práticas para diminuir o estresse do dia a dia.

Libro molto bello, facile da leggere. Soddisfatto.

Just what I was looking for - a collection of short practices that can be easily implemented into our daily routine without a whole lot of theory and intro. Perfect and thank you.

I bought the Kindle Version so this book is with me all of the time on my phone. It goes where I go and is readily on hand to be brought out and looked at digested and appreciated! Thank you!
