'If you try to calm [the mind], it only makes it worse, but over time it does calm, and when it does, there's room to hear more subtle things that's when your intuition starts to blossom and you start to see things more clearly and be in the present more. Your mind just slows down, and you see a tremendous expanse in the moment. You see so much more than you could see before. It's a discipline, you have to practise it.' Steve Jobs More and more of us are suffering from the stresses and strains of modern life. Mindfulness is an increasingly popular discipline that can not only help alleviate the symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression brought on by the pressures of our daily existence but can actually bring calm, joy and happiness into our lives. The practice has found champions in all walks of life from the Search Inside Yourself classes run by Google, to the importance Arianna Huffington puts on mindfulness in the workplace and the schools which are encouraging mindfulness to reduce exam stress. In The Little Book of Mindfulness, Tiddy Rowan, herself a practitioner for over 30 years, has gathered together a seminal collection of over 150 techniques, tips, exercises, advice, meditations and further resources that will enable people at every level to follow the breath, still the mind and relax the body, whilst generating and boosting a feeling of well-being and contentment that will permeate every aspect of everyday life. The exercises in The Little Book of Mindfulness will lighten the mind and the spirit. The perfect little gift to bring lasting happiness and peace for friends and family.

A little book that's a huge comfort
I found the practice of Mindfulness a year ago and this little book is the perfect companion for helping me be aware every day. I love the way you can open any page at any time and find a relevant phrase or exercise. It's almost like the book knows what you want. Size is perfect to carry with you either in handbag or pocket. Since I bought this wee book for myself, I have bought 8 other copies for friends, even for my Mindful teacher. They all love it.Mindfulness has helped me enormously in helping me take time for myself and not feel guilty.A real gem. I would recommend this book to anyone.

The Little Book of Mindfulness - Great gift for those into Alternative Therapies
Small book with a nice hard back, it feels nice and looks like a great gift idea for anyone into alternative medicine.The pages feel good quality and a ribbon book mark complete the book, so it looks worth the price it is, not a cheap looking paperback.Small it might be but a lot of insight into how we breathe, relax and need to make time to really smell life around us.I for one am always rushing around but needed to slow down or else face burn out. Pacing I have tried to not much avail. So seeing this book and as it is not a heavy going thick full of medical jargon thought it might be worth a try.Easy going pages, in easy clear language, perfect for just dipping into when you have a spare few moments.Mindfulness really does seem to be a modern way of trying to meditate, not to everyone's taste and some may even find it useless for them. I was at a point where I was basically willing to give anything a go, painkillers only so many, pain clinics etc only do many you can do. Suffering with both Fybromyliga and OA life does seem a struggle at more times than others but hoping this little book may help in some way however small. It does help you look at things in a different light which is what it is all about and concentrate on how and what your body is doing.

Great book.
Great book which is pocket size and really useful to take with you. I dropped a star only because the cover was fixed upside down which means the front of the book is at the back of the book and upside down. Kinda funny in a way but it doesn't detract from a decent book. I'll think of it as limited edition :-)

A mine full of mindfulness
A great little book to start the reader using "mindfulness", without any mysticism.Extremely accessible, small enough to carry anywhere. You can just dip into the book, anywhere, anytime, you feel the need for a little helpful suggestion.It's an essential read that does not cost the earth yet, when put into action, the simple suggestions it will bring priceless dividends that last a lifetime.I think anyone suffering from mild depression would benefit from this book.

Love these little books!
I love these books! They make great gifts and are also great for picking up little nuggets of information. I have purchased three already! They don't take long to read, which I love, and you can refer back to them or pick up where you left off at any time as it's mostly one statement per page.

Lovely way to start out your mindful journey!
It's a lovely little book to get for someone or yourself as a little treat.Binded together in a beautiful coloured gradient fabric, you can quickly flip to any page for a good tip on being mindful in hustle and bustle of everyday life.Be careful where you put this though, I put it in my handbag and the dye f the bag has gone on the pretty cover :(

Not what I expected
Quite disappointed with what I received- looked nothing like the picture. Plain lime green cover, brown page marker, overall quite ugly to be honest... despite the beautiful gradient turquoise and gold presented on images. I’ve purchased this book as a gift before on another site and it was like the image and so beautiful.. not sure why I received something so different from Amazon. Shame.

Great book - inspiring and insightful!
I found this book at a local spa and read it while waiting for an appointment. It was so insightful and inspiring that I immediately purchased from Amazon before I even left the spa. I loved it so much that I purchased another one to give to a friend for her birthday. It is a wonderful read and is cute - I have it proudly on display in my office along with the other little books in this series. Fantastic product!

Be mindful :)
This is exactly what I needed at the exact right time. Reading the quotes and everything in this book gives you a great feeling. I even smile when I think of the word “mindfulness” and I try to encompass this kind of belief system in my everyday life because I am trying to be better for myself. I suggest this book to anyone!!!! Especially people who are looking for a change in there life. Or need a reminder that they r good and can doo even better for themselves!!! It’s a no brainer. Be mindful :)
