5.0 out of 5 stars A concise description of how to practice mindfulness, March 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Moment by Moment: The Art and Practice of Mindfulness (Paperback)

Mindfulness has given me the tools to practice "meditation in action." In other words, how to take the awareness achieved during meditation and apply it to my every day life. Dr. Braza's book, "Moment by Moment," is a wonderful introduction for anyone interested in finding out about mindfulness, as well as a daily companion for those already practicing it. I think the most important ingredients of this book are in the practical, concrete suggestions on how to practice mindfulness during the many activities of the day. It is very easy to get "lost" in our busy world, but by learning to become aware of our breath, we are able to be more conscious of the present moment. Dr. Braza's book offer's us the opportunity to increase this moment by moment awareness.

This review is from: Moment by Moment: The Art and Practice of Mindfulness (Paperback)

The author of this book describes many practical applications of mindfulness and how to use it in one's everyday life. I found a wealth of information on how to reduce stress, enhance concentration and live more joyfully. I recommend this book to all my students and clients. It's clear, concise and informative without the Eastern jargon or slant. I love this book. Jack Curtis, Professor of Health Science, UW-La Crosse
