February 13, 2008
I'm not really a psychoterapist, I'm an M.D.And although being a mindfulness meditation practitioner myself, I'm just entering this world as a way to "awake" my patients.So this is a good book for any health prefessionals who has to deal with all kinds of emotions, and essentially human beings.Liked it a lot!

Mindfulness and Psychotherapy by Art Hansen (Beaver Dam, Wisconsin USA)  4 Stars
March 09, 2007
I purchased this book on the reading list for a conference I am attending next month, on applying mindfulness techniques to healthcare problems.

Complicated and Deep by I. A Minor (Brookville, PA USA) 4 Stars
June 29, 2006
This is a good exposition of mindfulness theory and practice. Althought a novice therapist will find the text useful, most of the insight gained by reading this text will be achieved by therapists with 5 to 10 years actual practice under their belts. I would advise novice therapists to buy this book immediately and then delve into each chapter several times per month for the next few years. They will never regret it. The problem and promise on this book is that it requires you to go back and review each concept of your original training, whether it is Adlerian, Freudian, Cognitive or Christian. Mindfulness is the goldplating overlay that makes your therapy more valuable.

a wise, invaluable resource by Anonymous 5 Stars
March 10, 2006
This well-written, wise, accessible book will help novice and seasoned therapists incorporate mindfulness practice into their clinical work, skillfully and thoughtfully. The editors and contributors provide a range of expert perspectives on the role of mindfulness in psychotherapy and convey the complexity of good psychotherapy, mindfulness practice, and the union of the two. The clarity with which they accomplish this is remarkable. The depth of their personal and professional expertise and experience is evident throughout. Inclusion of a thorough review of current research in the area is another notable strength of the volume. I highly recommend this book to clinicians and researchers interested in the powerful role that mindfulness may play in psychological healing. It is essential reading for anyone interested in this highly promising area of study.

What would happen if, instead of fighting difficult emotions, we accepted them? Over his decades of experience as a therapist and mindfulness meditation practitioner, Dr. Christopher Germer has learned a paradoxical lesson: We all want to avoid pain, but letting in--and responding compassionately to our own imperfections, without...
