Can anyone recommend a good book on mindfulness?

Anyone read any they would recommend?
I'm looking to be more mindful and live in the moment more. I also have generalised anxiety and a therapist recommended I do some research.
Preferably something simple with not too much waffle! :)

The Williams & Penman book is a good introduction to mindfulness.

Hello

Not a book, but the ‘Calm’ app is very good.

Ruby Wax Sane New World - a good introduction to mindfulness and very funny.

Hi op

I'd recomend headspace - available as book, app or i think might even have bits on netflix now. Really accessible, Andy Puddicombe's voice is lovely too 😍

I really loved “wherever you go there you are” by Jon Kabat Zin

ornge · 13/04/2021 19:53

Very short chapters (some are less than a page) which made it really easy to digest for me!!

Well, I've always thought that one of the best - Wait, what's that shiny thing over there?

I just started "Peace is every step", and so far it's really nice.

This is excellent

Comes with CD to listen along.

Also available on Audible if you're a subscriber.

Go to your local library and see if there are any self help books.

Second vote for the headspace app.

John Kabat Zinn's Mindfulness for Beginners is a good first book. Short chapters, very accessible.

But the books I return to most regularly are by Charlotte Joko Beck.

The Power of Now I cant recommend it enough

ratussbaguss · 16/01/2022 08:14

Can I recommend The Happiness Trap - it's an acceptance and commitment therapy book but I'm this model includes mindfulness and goes a step further.
