Description
Life is beautiful, but the moments when we are fully aware of it are rare. Every day, at home and at work, we have to deal with problems and worries we would rather avoid. This Czech-language book presents a practical tool for learning to cope with difficult and unpleasant situations in life. It introduces mindfulness, or awareness: the ability to remain alert and experience the present moment. Mindfulness can multiply the moments in which you fully appreciate the beauty of life. No extensive specialist knowledge is required; this clearly written and accessible book serves as a practical workbook, including for complete beginners. The authors provide a step-by-step guide to changing your life independently at home into a happier and more contented one in just eight weeks. The eight-week mindfulness format was first taught in the late 1970s by American professor Jon Kabat-Zinn as part of the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) programme. Numerous studies subsequently demonstrated the effectiveness of the programme’s eight-week format.
