Google Tech TalksMarch 8, 2007ABSTRACTJon will describe the revolution in medicine that has occurred over the past 30 years that has integrated the mind back into the body and developed a remarkable range of practices for integrating one's experience, reducing stress, healing the body, coping more effectively with emotions such as anxiety, anger, and depression, and cultivating greater well-being and happiness. His work has been instrumental in bringing Buddhist meditative practices, as he likes to say, "without the Buddhism" to full acceptance within the mainstream of medicine, psychology, and health care, and has shown them to be effective in people suffering from a wide range of medical...

Feb 29, 2008 - Hi is the book good? Can I converse with you in youtube and ask you a couple of questions in relation to mindfulness?
Thassrightbaby Says:
Feb 29, 2008 - I write these words to encourage others to try it out and commit to it - you have to have the will to want improve yourself.

Mar 12, 2008 - Hi, I've completed Jon's 8 week mindfulness based stress reduction course here in the U.K. I'd be happy to answer any question you have - from my own experience of the course.
24dcambridge Says:
Mar 15, 2008 - the book is great, but remember the important part is the practise, not reading about the practise. This course helped me to regain a balance in my life, but it's an ongoing process, making space just "to be". The book is called "Full Catastrophe Living".
24dcambridge Says:
Mar 15, 2008 - I'm sure that there was no disrespect intended. I didn't see any, certainly. Meditation is common to many paths and traditions. All are respected.
Thassrightbaby Says:
Mar 15, 2008 - Hi, yeah thanks for the reply. Yup I brought the book about a week ago, and have been practicing the techniques. Yeah thanks for the advice in relation to practising. I'm enjoying the book and its gradually restoring balance for me as well

Mar 23, 2008 - People need to know that stress will run your body down, cause you to become ill and can eventually kill you.Minimizing stress and dealing with it is very important.Having a daily stress reduction program would greatly help.

Mar 24, 2008 - I am rright hhere, in this vvery mmoment and whereever I end up being there I am. I see all of thought and emotion as waves that my feet are aware of, my feet are my mind, in that way. Awareness...

Mar 31, 2008 - Doing, doing, doing. In my American society it's all (and I mean ALL) about doing. Unfortunately, we desperately need people like Kabat-Zinn to actually give us permission to stop and smell the roses of our life.

Apr 22, 2008 - HI I am thinking about doing the Uk MBSR course , I have to do the one on one telephone course as I live in France and can't keep flying over. Did you find the course helped in any way, I have stress related anxiety and hope this course will help

Apr 30, 2008 - this guy is terrific
MaBu888 Says:
May 4, 2008 - Am I NOT??? Of course consciousness or I-amness is more than the leg, it's the mind and body and all . . .
toamaori Says:
May 25, 2008 - the brain is its own best medicine :)
toamaori Says:
May 25, 2008 - yes its letting go of ego, knowing that its ok NOT to be correct all the time, by being wrong we create lessons, be being aware we percieve those lessons,
