Trusted therapist and mindfulness expert Dr. Ronald Siegel shows exactly how in this inviting guide. You'll get effective strategies to use while driving to work, walking the dog, or washing the dishes, plus tips on creating a formal practice routine in as little as 20 minutes a day. Flexible, step-by-step action plans will help you become more focused and efficient in daily life; cope with difficult feelings, such as anger and sadness; deepen your connection to your spouse or partner; feel more rested and less stressed; curb unhealthy habits; find relief from anxiety and depression; and resolve stress-related pain, insomnia, and other physical problems.

The Mindfulness Solution is Simply Phenomenal....... February 10, 2010

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 February 28, 2010

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.
Excellent read for living a more mindful life. March 9, 2010

Very good book for beginning mindfulness. It covers a lot of useful meditations and practical advice for everyday issues that we all face. I found the chapters on anxiety and fear to be some of the most helpful I have ever read. I also recommend The Heart of The Buddha's Teaching by Thich Nhat Hahn. [...]
A valuable read for anyone with any issue April 1, 2010

As a psychotherapist I am always searching for books that I can refer to clients that will help them with their presenting problems. Since I discovered The Mindfulness Solution, I have been referring the vast majority of my clients to this book. It is an easy read with practical wisdom and useful exercises that help facilitate insight and present moment awareness. The mindfulness exercises are descriptive and easy to understand. Dr. Siegel has tailored mindfulness meditations to help with numerous issues from stress reduction and relaxation to addictions and pain management. Anyone who reads this book will benefit from it, regardless of the reason for picking it up. Truly a valuable read!

It is extraordinary how simple and yet how powerful mindfulness is, and its healing effects are finally being realized. This is a scholarly book, well worth reading. If you want to learn more about mindfulness, I also recommend 'The Path of Mindfulness Meditation', available through Amazon.
