Deeper Mindfulness: The New Way to Rediscover Calm in a Chaotic World
Autor Professor Mark Williams, Dr Danny Penmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 mai 2023
Începem parcurgerea acestui volum cu un exercițiu de identificare a momentelor de cotitură, acele clipe care dictează dacă viitorul nostru va fi luminos sau dominat de haos. Descoperim aici un program structurat de opt săptămâni care nu se mulțumește doar cu tehnici de relaxare, ci ne ghidează spre 'feeling tone' — acel punct critic în care mintea noastră decide cum să interpreteze realitatea înconjurătoare. Observăm cum autorii folosesc neuroștiința pentru a explica de ce anumite momente par plate sau lipsite de viață și cum putem recalibra această 'culoare de fundal' a existenței noastre.
Deeper Mindfulness reprezintă o evoluție firească a muncii depuse de Professor Mark Williams. Dacă în lucrarea sa Cry of Pain acesta analiza profunzimile suferinței umane și ale disperării, aici oferă instrumentele practice pentru a preveni alunecarea spre acele stări limită. Această nouă abordare este construită pe fundația Terapiei Cognitive bazate pe Mindfulness (MBCT), oferind o metodă de lucru mai nuanțată pentru cei care simt că practicile standard nu mai sunt suficiente.
Pe aceeași linie cu Mindfulness (Ghidul practic pentru găsirea liniștii într-o lume frenetică), acest volum păstrează rigoarea științifică, dar cu un accent pe profunzimea practicii și pe mecanismele subtile ale creierului care preced emoția. Față de Mindfulness in Eight Weeks de Michael Chaskalson, care oferă o introducere excelentă în domeniu, Deeper Mindfulness se adresează celor care doresc să exploreze substratul conștiinței, fiind un instrument deopotrivă pentru începători și pentru practicanți experimentați care caută echanimitate într-o lume tot mai imprevizibilă.

Descriere
Use the hidden foundations of mindfulness to rediscover calm and reclaim your life in our chaotic worldThere are moments in life that decide your fate. They ripple into the future and dictate how you experience the world in the moments that follow; either positive and uplifting, dark and chaotic, or flat and dull. What if you could recognise these moments before they seized control of your life? What if you could use them to set sail for a better future? What if all moments, big and small, could be harnessed this way?In Deeper Mindfulness, Oxford Professor Mark Williams and Dr Danny Penman reunite to present a new eight-week guided meditation programme that takes mindfulness to the next level.
Deeper Mindfulness reveals how the latest advances in neuroscience, combined with millennia old wisdom, can be used to transform your life. These discoveries open the doors to a deeper layer of mindfulness known as the 'feeling tone'. This sets the 'background colour' that tinges your entire experience of life.
It is also the tipping point from which you can reclaim your life in an increasingly stressful and chaotic world. Proven effective at treating anxiety, stress and depression, the practices in Deeper Mindfulness offer a new and more fruitful direction for both novice and experienced meditators. It also allows the rest of us to approach life with renewed strength, vigour and equanimity.

Williams and Penman nail it when they describe how we can run from life (and ourselves) but we'll never escape. DEEPER MINDFULNESS holds true to its name: the authors expertly point out how to identify those critical driving forces in our lives - feelings, and how feelings feel - but importantly have provided a pragmatic path and clear steps that we can take to leverage our minds to live better lives.
