In this ground-breaking book, Kate Carne shows how to deal with the many problems that can arise, and offers practical solutions to help you overcome obstacles and deepen your practice.

Combining personal stories, grounded advice and insights drawn from Kate Carne’s own professional and personal experience, as well as the experience of the many people she has taught over the years, this unique book is essential reading for anyone who has ever been drawn to mindfulness, but who – in spite of the best of intentions – finds themselves struggling to keep going after their initial enthusiasm has waned.

I think this is a really good book for anyone thinking of meditation or in need of a clearer vision about it .
It also carries an insight into our psyche and specific obstacles that we carry in our minds but can't point a finger at it . Knowing what are the things stoping us from practice makes everything a lot easier . While reading this I managed to admit to myself some new things and I got new motivation .
I would specially recommend this to people new to meditation who claim that they can't get into the no thinking awareness because it explains the phases in mind we go trough mentally untill we get there as a part of natural order . It's encouraging .

I found this book while browsing the library shelves. My only experience with mindfulness is my desire to want to be present, though I had no idea what that meant and if I was ever even doing it. This book is the perfect introduction to mindfulness and meditation. Short, easy, and engaging with a good mix of stories vs information.

Somewhat informative, with interesting stuff in it. Overall though - possibly my terrible memory - I can't really recall anything outstanding advice-wise from this book.

The audio was clear to understand and easy listening.
