Full Catastrophe Living

Since its initial publication FULL CATASTROPHE LIVING has given hundreds of thousands of people access to Dr. Kabat-Zinn's revolutionary approach in integrative medicine known as mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), which works to improve a person's response to stress, pain, and illness. Timed to coincide with the January publication of his new hardcover from Hyperion, Coming to Our Senses, this edition includes a new introduction that highlights recent developments on MBSR, as well as updated resources for those who seek the lasting effects of mindfulness practice. Integrating Buddhism and yoga with modern medicine, Kabat-Zinn's scientifically based program-created at the world-renowned Stress Reduction Clinic at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center-helps to ease a range of psychological and physical symptoms, including anxiety, headaches, and back pain, and gives realistic guidance for anyone caring about their health, sanity, and well-being.Jon Kabat-Zinn is the author of 'Full Catastrophe Living', published 1990 under ISBN 9780385298971 and ISBN 0385298978.
