Resumen del Editor

This practical guide helps therapists from virtually any specialty or theoretical orientation choose and adapt mindfulness practices most likely to be effective with particular patients, while avoiding those that are contraindicated. The authors provide a wide range of meditations that build the core skills of focused attention, mindfulness, and compassionate acceptance. Vivid clinical examples show how to weave the practices into therapy, tailor them to each patient's needs, and overcome obstacles. Therapists also learn how developing their own mindfulness practice can enhance therapeutic relationships and personal well-being.

Great guide to using mindfulness in counseling

This is a very clear & concise guide to integrating mindfulness into counseling. I'm am making use of it already in my work with clients as a counseling intern. I love the exercises described here, and my personal practice has been enriched by them. This book has also really inspired me to recommit to my own meditation practice. There are plenty of references to Buddhism, which I appreciate, but might not be for everyone. The authors do emphasize that the practices they described can be presented & practiced from any religious or secular perspective.
