Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stress Reliever
Review: Our lives are chaotic enough, but catastrophes shake us to the core. This book is a straightforward, not preachy, guide to making it through stress and the other obstacles life throws at us. I also recommend reading "Home in One Piece" by John Thompson and Lance Armstrong's, "It's not about the Bike".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Do you really want to feel better?
Review: Self help seems too good to be true? Never take advice unless you get it from a Church or a Doctor's office? Reading a book wont help? Time to try someting new. The concepts in this book work. You supply the practice. This is a journey well worth taking. If you never read another book, you'll be glad you read this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: As a health educator- it's one of my most favorites!
Review: The simple principle of mindfulness can change your life- it did mine. Jon Kabat-Zinn does a wonderful job of explaining mindfulness and teaching you how it can help you deal with stress, pain and illness. Read it, buy it, live it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST-read for anyone living with chronic pain or stress!!
Review: This book depicts a program which will no doubt lead to you internal peace and allow you to transcend the suffocation of a life of pain - which probably means that you are also buried under the stress of living with pain, limited your coping ability for normal living. It has helped me to finally move toward a place that I always knew was out there, but could not find a way to reach. It has allowed me to overcome the barriers which have held me back in all avenues of my life, all of my life. Really do it, though, and really mean it.

Highly recommended.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: My favorite health book
Review: This book has done more for me then any of my health books. Get this book if you have any kind of stress at all in your life.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Feeling empowered again
Review: This book helps even the most distressed of us learn about self-healing and self-nuturing. I recommend it for heavily stressed people to help settle and relax them, and find ways of mastering one's mind and circumstances. I also highly recommend "Open Your Mind, Open Your Life: A Book of Wisdom" by Taro Gold which is another great reading tool to regain one's feelings of empowerment. Excellent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Living in the Present
Review: This book is a miraculous vehicle for learning to live in the moment. Everyone has their story and life goes on. Learning to live and notice each moment while the story is happening, without being consummed by it, alows us to separate out the tragedies of everyday life and to get through them. This book is about becoming a survivor. My friends look at me and want to know what I have done. I tell them, I've done the book and the training and integrated them into my daily life. Bravo J.K-Z

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: For use teaching prenatal, gentle yoga
Review: This book was required reading for a prenatal yoga training that I was to take. Before attending the training I had a miscarriage and this book really helped me move to a more peaceful place more quickly, with more awareness. I have used it as a reference in teaching a gentle yoga class to a pain support group and will use its mindfulness-based techniques to empower women for the birthing process. This book will really change the way you relate to yourSelf and the life you are given. It contains powerful tools for taking charge of your life. What's missing from your life may well be YOU! Embrace its teachings to live your life more FULLY!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A must read for people living with chronic conditions.
Review: This is one book I refer back to again and again. It teaches a new way of dealing with the physical body by listening to it and working with it. It improved my understanding of my physical condition and greatly reduced my frustration level.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Life changing
Review: This is one of the best books available to help people reduce the stress and anxiety in their lives by taking charge of their own bodies and emotions. It lays out an entire program that is easy to follow and results are immediate. I can't recommend it highly enough.
