By "coming to our senses"--both literally and metaphorically--we can become more compassionate, more embodied, more aware human beings, and in the process, contribute to the healing of the body politic as well as our own lives in ways both little and big.
In the fourth of these books, Mindfulness for All (which was originally published as Part VII and Part VIII of Coming to Our Senses), Kabat-Zinn focuses on how Mindfulness really can be a tool to Transform the world--explaining how democracy thrives in a mindful context, and why Mindfulness is a vital tool for both personal and global understanding and action in these tumultuous times.
Now, Coming to Our Senses is being repackaged into 4 smaller books, each focusing on a different aspect of mindfulness, and each with a new foreword written by the author.
He followed that up with 2005\'s Coming to Our Senses, the definitive book for our time on the connection between Mindfulness and our well-being on every level, physical, cognitive, emotional, social, planetary, and spiritual.
