Well known for applying mindfulness to the treatment of depression,
pioneering researcher John Teasdale now explores the broader
changes that people can experience through contemplative practices.
What goes on in our minds when we are mindful? What does it mean to
talk of mindfulness as a way of being? From a scientific
perspective, how do core elements of contemplative traditions have
their beneficial effects? Teasdale describes two types of knowing
that human beings have evolved--conceptual and
holistic-intuitive--and shows how mindfulness can achieve a
healthier balance between them. He masterfully describes the
mechanisms by which this shift in consciousness not only can reduce
emotional suffering, but also can lead to greater joy and
compassion and a transformed sense of self.
