New Releases by Jon Kabat-Zinn

On le sait, la méditation, en plus d’accroître le bien-être, permet de devenir un meilleur être humain et d’avoir de meilleures relations avec les autres. Et si la méditation pouvait aussi accélérer le processus de guérison physique? L’esprit est son propre médecin propose des réponses à cette question que se posent de plus en plus des scientifiques du monde entier. En 2005, la conférence Mind and Life XIII a réuni autour du dalaï-lama, outre les auteurs, des psychologues, des chercheurs en neurosciences, des médecins, des philosophes et des physiciens qui ont répondu à cette question. Cet ouvrage décrit cette rencontre historique entre ce maître bouddhiste et les scientifiques, et établit enfin un pont entre la science moderne et les traditions bouddhistes. Présenté sous forme de dialogue, il nous révèle les preuves scientifiques des incroyables bienfaits de la méditation sur le corps et l’esprit, en plus de nous proposer des astuces concrètes pour intégrer cette pratique à notre quotidien.

Mindfulness para principiantes es una invitación para que el lector modifique su relación con el modo en que piensa, siente, ama, trabaja o juega; y despierte y encarne de forma plena lo que realmente es. Los meditadores principiantes (pero también los avezados) descubrirán en estas páginas un valioso compendio de las prácticas y actitudes fundamentales que Jon Kabat-Zinn ha desarrollado tras décadas de investigación, enseñanza y práctica. A destacar: la importancia de conectar con nuestro cuerpo y nuestros sentidos; ir más allá de nuestra historia y conectar con la experiencia directa; estabilizar nuestra atención y presencia en medio de las actividades cotidianas; los factores mentales fundamentales que provocan sufrimiento; por qué corazón pleno (heartfulness) es sinónimo de mindfulness. Mindfulness para principiantes proporciona las respuestas apropiadas para lograr que conectemos de un modo más claro, duradero y amoroso con nosotros mismos y el mundo. Este libro incluye un audio con cinco meditaciones mindfulness guiadas por Fernando Torrijos, seleccionadas del programa de audio que inspiró este libro.

Mindfulness opens us up to the possibility of being fully human as we are, and of expressing the humane in our way of being. Mindlessness de facto closes us up and denies us the fullness of our being alive. This book may on the surface appear to be merely another offering in the genre of daily readings. But deep within these 108 selections lie messages of profound wisdom in a contemporary and practical form that can lead to both healing and transformation. We so urgently need to rotate in consciousness in order to safeguard what precious sanity is available to us on this planet. How we carry ourselves will determine the direction the world takes because, in a very real way, we are the world we inhabit. Our world is continuously being shaped by our participation in everything around us and within us through mindfulness. This is the great work of awareness. Welcome to the threshold . . . to the fullness of arriving at your own door!

Yes, there actually is a way to let everything become your teacher, to let life itself, and everything that unfolds within it, the “full catastrophe” of the human condition in the words of Zorba the Greek, shape your ongoing development and maturation. Millions have followed this path to greater sanity, balance, and well-being, often in the face of huge stress, pain, uncertainty, sorrow, and illness. In his landmark book, Full Catastrophe Living, Jon Kabat-Zinn shared this innovative approach, known as mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), with the world. Now, in this companion volume, 100 pointers from that groundbreaking work have been carefully selected to inspire you to embrace what is deepest and best and most beautiful in yourself. Whether you are trying to learn patience, cope with pain, deal with the enormous stress and challenges of the age we live in, improve your relationships, or free yourself from destructive emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, these deceptively simple meditations will remind you that you have deep inner resources to draw upon, the most important of which is the present moment itself. Regardless of your age or whether you are familiar with the healing power of mindfulness, this insightful, inspirational guide will help you to honor, embrace, learn from, and grow into each moment of your life.

Dieci anni fa Jon Kabat-Zinn cambiò il nostro modo di pensare alla pratica di consapevolezza nella vita quotidiana con Dovunque tu vada, ci sei già, ormai un classico. Ora, con Riprendere i sensi ci fornisce il testo di riferimento, nella nostra epoca, sulla relazione fra consapevolezza e benessere fisico e spirituale. Con rigore scientifico, doti poetiche e pregnanti narrazioni personali il dottor Kabat-Zinn prende in esame i misteri e le meraviglie della nostra mente e del nostro corpo e descrive modi semplici e intuitivi per arrivare, tramite i sensi, a una comprensione più profonda della nostra bellezza, del nostro genio e del percorso che scegliamo per la nostra vita in un mondo complicato, dominato dalla paura e in rapido mutamento.

Come to your senses with the definitive guide to living a meaningful life from a world expert in the connection between mindfulness and physical and spiritual wellbeing. "[The] journey toward health and sanity is nothing less than an invitation to wake up to the fullness of our lives as if they actually mattered . . ." --Jon Kabat-Zinn, from the Introduction Jon Kabat-Zinn changed the way we thought about awareness in everyday life with his now-classic introduction to mindfulness, Wherever You Go, There You Are. Now, with Coming to Our Senses, he provides the definitive book for our time on the connection between mindfulness and our physical and spiritual wellbeing. With scientific rigor, poetic deftness, and compelling personal stories, Jon Kabat-Zinn examines the mysteries and marvels of our minds and bodies, describing simple, intuitive ways in which we can come to a deeper understanding, through our senses, of our beauty, our genius, and our life path in a complicated, fear-driven, and rapidly changing world. In each of the book''s eight parts, Jon Kabat-Zinn explores another facet of the great adventure of healing ourselves -- and our world -- through mindful awareness, with a focus on the "sensescapes" of our lives and how a more intentional awareness of the senses, including the human mind itself, allows us to live more fully and more authentically. By "coming to our senses" -- both literally and metaphorically by opening to our innate connectedness with the world around us and within us -- we can become more compassionate, more embodied, more aware human beings, and in the process, contribute to the healing of the body politic as well as our own lives in ways both little and big.

Des recherches scientifiques récentes ont démontré que la pratique de la méditation et de la pleine conscience avait des effets remarquables sur le corps et l''esprit. Au cours de la méditation, l''attention se porte sur le moment présent. Dans cet état, il n''y a pas de jugement, pas de passé, pas de futur, pas de pensées incessantes. Votre conscience est simplement là, dans le silence et le calme absolu. Où tu vas, tu es s''adresse à toutes les personnes qui souhaitent commencer ou approfondir une pratique de la méditation pour se libérer du stress et trouver le chemin de la guérison. En apprenant à vivre dans le présent et en éveillant votre conscience, vous aurez accès à des ressources de joie, de créativité, de santé et d''intelligence dont vous ne soupçonniez même pas l''existence.

Throughout our lives we long to love ourselves more deeply and find a greater sense of connection with others. Our fear of intimacy--both with others and with ourselves--creates feelings of pain and longing. But these feelings can also awaken in us the desire for freedom and the willingness to take up the spiritual path. In this inspiring book, Sharon Salzberg, one of America''s leading spiritual teachers, shows us how the Buddhist path of lovingkindness ( metta in Pali), can help us discover the radiant, joyful heart within each of us. This practice of lovingkindness is revolutionary because it has the power to radically change our lives, helping us create true happiness in ourselves and genuine compassion for others. The Buddha described the nature of such a spiritual path as "the liberation of the heart, which is love." The author draws on simple Buddhist teachings, wisdom stories from various traditions, guided meditation practices, and her own experience from twenty-five years of practice and teaching to illustrate how each one of us can cultivate love, compassion, joy, and equanimity--the four "heavenly abodes" of traditional Buddhism.

Mindfulness is considered the heart of Buddhist meditation. But its essence is universal and of deep practical benefit to everyone. In Mindfulness Meditation for Everyday Life, Jon Kabat-Zinn maps out a simple path for cultivating mindfulness in our lives, and awakening us to the unique beauty and possibilities of each present moment. He shows us how this simple meditation technique can enable us to be truly in touch with where we already are, so that we can be fully aware at all times.
