Sustaining a mindfulness meditation practice is challenging. Many people complete an eight-week introductory MBSR or MBCT course with the best of intentions, only to quickly let things slip as competing pressures take over and the time to stop and pause dries up. Addressing this issue, Staying Mindful refreshes and deepens the learning gained in typical introductory mindfulness courses, and provides a wealth of guidance to encourage and inspire ongoing practice. Based on a six-week training course developed and run for many years by the author, it is perfect for anyone who has taken an MBSR or MBCT course and wishes to restart or reinvigorate their mindfulness practice. It is also the ideal textbook for advanced courses. It fills a clear gap in the market as most titles in this area are introductory - no authoritative 'next step' books exist to guide individuals in further developing their mindfulness skills.
