Full Catastrophe Living: Using the Wisdom of Your Body and Mind to Face Stress, Pain, and Illness by Jon Kabat-Zinn
5.0
"When you walk the path of awareness, you are bringing a systematic consciousness to the experience of living that only makes living more vibrant, more real. The fact that no one ever taught you how to do this or told you that it was worth doing is immaterial. When you are ready for this quest, it finds you." -JKZ
This book was assigned reading during the first semester of my Master's degree in Mindfulness Studies. It is a foundational, groundbreaking book that will be an ongoing part of my practice and part of my life. I highly recommend reading this book to anyone who is interested in understanding the benefits of mindfulness and how to begin a mindfulness practice. Although it is a big book, it is extremely approachable and easy to read. Instruction, theory, and anecdotes weave together seamlessly in this important body of work.
