Review
"Mindfulness is an innate capacity that, when cultivated, can awaken us to true health and happiness. Dr. Siegel’s book is a clear and comprehensive guide for anyone who wants to apply the power of mindful awareness to challenging emotions, physical pain, or relational difficulties. Filled with wisdom that is both practical and deep, this book is an invitation to live the real moments of our life with presence and heart." - Tara Brach, author of Radical Acceptance
"Both accessible and persuasive in showing how mindful awareness can help us take care of ourselves and stay centered as we navigate life’s inevitable challenges." - Zindel V. Segal, coauthor of The Mindful Way through Depression
"In your hands is a readily accessible book that can walk you step by step to a better life. Being present in the moment with acceptance is more than just a practice - it is a key research-proven strategy that promotes health in the body, the mind, and in our relationships with one another. Now is the time - and here is the invitation - to step into a new way of being that can reduce anxiety, stress, and fear, and enhance joy, gratitude and well-being in your life." - Daniel J. Siegel, author of Mindsight
"This clear and practical guide can help you discover your own potential to develop mindfulness. It offers guidance for building a formal meditation practice as well as tools for coping in everyday life." - Sharon Salzberg, author of Lovingkindness
"Down-to-earth and helpful, Dr. Siegel offers genuinely practical training in the transformative art of mindfulness." - Jack Kornfield, author of The Wise Heart
"Dr. Siegel offers us an abundance of exercises, transformative practices, and the skilful means to live a mindful life of conscious awareness and meaningful connection. I applaud and recommend his unique perspective, gleaned from a life of meditation and psychotherapeutic practice and research. This wonderful book is a real contribution to the field of happiness studies and spiritual development." - Lama Surya Das, author of Awakening the Buddha Within
Product Description
From a trusted therapist and mindfulness expert, this book blends psychological savvy with powerful tools for attaining a more balanced life. Many people still associate "mindfulness" with exotic images like a hermit on a mountaintop. Of course, the reality is more down-to-earth: You can cultivate mindfulness – and reap its proven benefits – while driving to work, showering, talking to a loved one, or washing the dishes. Dr. Ronald Siegel shows exactly how in this inviting guide. A wealth of quizzes and exercises help readers understand and master time-tested techniques for fostering insight, awareness, and acceptance. Customizing the approach is simple with step-by-step action plans for improving relationships and finding relief from stress, anxiety, insomnia, pain, unhealthy habits, and more.

If You Just Wanna Learn How
10 Nov 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you are not particularly interested in following the Buddhist Path and just want to learn to practice mindfulness in order to expand your awareness (with all of its benefits) then this is the book for you. Ron Siegel is an excellent teacher. He succeeds in the very difficult task of explaining how to practice mindfulness better than anyone I've read or heard speak. It's not just a book, it's a manual.

The Mindfulness Solution is Simply Phenomenal.......
10 Feb 2010
Format:Paperback
Although I am familiar with Ron Siegel's work from a professional standpoint, his new book "the mindfulness solution: Everyday Practices for Everyday Problems" treks a cut above most self-help guides to mindfulness meditation. Siegel does an extraordinary job blending science, therapy and tradition in an easy-to-read enjoyable format. This is a must-read for anyone interested in incorporating mindfulness meditation into their daily lives and will certainly contribute to more effective therapy outcomes for those of us practicing in the mental health professions. The Mindfulness Solution offers a multitude of easy to use formal, as well as informal, meditation practices to help out with the everyday problems that we all face at times- to the more difficult emotional and/or physical roadblocks that contribute to our suffering. Ron Siegel presents the building blocks to a more mindful path with clarity, simplicity and a down-to-earth sense of humor that makes for an enjoyable, warm and transforming read. Do yourself a favor and check this out....and see for yourself!

Comprehensive and practical
28 Feb 2010
Format:Paperback
With equal parts wisdom and humor, Dr. Siegel has created a comprehensive, practical guide to the application of mindfulness to a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship issues, addictions, illness, aging and death. Backed by the latest research and filled with detailed instructions on specific mindfulness techniques, this book is simple enough for the beginner and substantial enough for the more advanced practitioner. As a psychotherapist, I have already recommended it to several clients and have heard back from them that they found it immensely helpful.
