Summary:
People are increasingly turning to meditative methods to relieve the ill effects of stress, and to become more focused, healthy, and proactive. Kabat-Zinn is a leader of the mind/body revolution in medicine and health care, demystifying it and bringing it into the mainstream. Here he offers insight into how to use the five senses-- touch, hearing, sight, taste, and smell, plus awareness itself-- as a path to a healthier, saner, and more meaningful life.
