Lúc đầu tựa cứ nghĩ tác giả sẽ cho biết cách hình thành thói quen mới như ý mình muốn mà không được - chẳng hạn ngày đọc 10 trang tiểu luận :)). Nhưng không phải - chương 1 chỉ thực hành tâm trí yên lặng - không được đi lung tung - chương 2 tập thở - chương 3 tập sờ - tập đi - tập nghe - và chương 6 tập ngồi thiền. Tác giả tin rằng sau 6 tuần tập trung như vậy người đọc có thể rewrite brain - tui thấy giảm stress thì đúng hơn. Vì bên này ai cũng sống nhanh quá - ăn chúi mũi vô phone - ngồi chúi mũi vô phone - nên không biết mình đang ăn gì và ngồi như thế nào :). Sách chỉ có vậy.
What a fantastic book about mindfulness! I loved the author's voice throughout the book. She was gentle and she encourages her readers to be gentle with themselves, which I think is important. Sometimes we get so caught up in trying to do things "right" and we're not present in the moment. It can be frustrating, but she is ever reminding readers to not scold themselves. I love that. The main chunk of the book is broken up into 6 chapters, 1 per week. Each chapter includes information about what you'll be learning, the techniques, journal questions to ask oneself (which I love!) that really get you thinking and helps to solidify the experiences, then there is a summary of what you've learned in each chapter, and then instructions on how to apply the techniques during the week. It starts out slow and doing an exercise like 2 or 3 times in a week, then progresses from there. I really like the progression that she uses to help immerse readers in the mindfulness habit. The author writes that she wanted her program to be easy to do, and it sure is! It's easy to do the practices, and that's what makes them able to be integrated into one's life relatively easily. Then, at the end of each chapter, she has a section called Habit Building, which is basically a reminder to look for opportunities to use the mindfulness techniques throughout the day, and to journal down those opportunities and to also record any moments when you remembered to practice the techniques in the moment. She concludes the book with information about the gifts of mindfulness and also information about how mindfulness can help with depression, PTSD, ADD/ADHD, and addiction recovery. It's a great book, one I recommend if you want to try to apply mindfulness to real life. The author makes the practices so easy, anyone can do them. There is a standing meditation, a walking meditation, sitting meditation (last in the book), mantras, touch meditation, a mindful meal, etc. And she has the techniques broken down into manageable chunks instead of just trying to sit and meditate for half an hour right off the bat. She makes creating the habit of mindfulness manageable, and this is the best book that I've read so far about integrating meditation and/or mindfulness into daily life. I also really like the fact that she uses journal writing as an integral part of the program. Journaling can help solidify the experiences and it's a great record to come back to later. And we must be ever gentle with ourselves because, as she reminds us, people spend their lifetimes working toward this. It's not a race and there is no competition, and every experience will be different. Loved this book and can't wait to apply the principles to my own life!
This was not as new agey as it sounds and actually encouraged and emphasized the importance of prayer. Gave me lots of ways to practice being in the moment which is helpful because I have always liked slipping into my own thoughts about 24/7. 🤣❤️
This is probably a perfectly good program to follow for many people. Unfortunately for me, the author's attachment to so-called alternative medicine irks me too much to even finish reading this.
Good information for a beginner, if you haven't read anything on mindfulness. Otherwise, kind of a repeat of information I have read from Kabat-Zinn, Thich Nhat Hanh, etc.
