Wherever You Go, There You Are—The Seminal Book by Jon Kabat-Zinn

In the book Wherever You Go, There You Are, Jon Kabat-Zinn explains what Buddhists call the “mindstream,” the never-ending ticker tape of thoughts, sensory experiences, and feelings that run through our awareness. In teaching mindful meditation, Kabat-Zinn asks readers to take a step back, take a breath, and learn how to watch thoughts and feelings without becoming overly attached or overwhelmed by them. Steve Hasenberg and Cali Alpert will share their processes for learning how to be their own thoughts’ witness, and they share suggestions for adopting this form of mindfulness to move from being mind-centered to heart-centered in the name of finding more peace and joy.
