just snap out of it lead us deeper into the downward spiral. Through insightful lessons drawn
from both Eastern meditative traditions and cognitive therapy they demonstrate how to sidestep
the mental habits that lead to despair including rumination and self-blame so you can face
life's challenges with greater resilience. Jon Kabat-Zinn gently and encouragingly narrates the
accompanying CD of guided meditations making this a complete package for anyone seeking to
