This ancient inner technology is an exciting new wave bound to enrich the Western sciences of the mind."
-Stephen K. Hayes, founder of To Shin Do; author of Action Meditation and How to Own the World "This is a much needed and useful book for clinicians interested in mindfulness by clinicians that are steeped in its practice. It is clear and comprehensive and includes a CD which is experiential. I recommend it for every clinician who's curious about mindfulness and wants to apply it in their clinical practice."
