Editorial Review:
The Mindful Way through Depression draws on the collective wisdom of four internationally renowned cognitive therapy and mindfulness experts, including bestselling author Jon Kabat-Zinn, to help you break the mental habits that can lead to despair. This authoritative, easy-to-use self-help program is based on methods clinically proven to reduce the recurrence of chronic unhappiness. Informative chapters reveal the hidden psychological mechanisms that cause depression and demonstrate powerful ways to strengthen your resilience in the face of life's misfortunes. Kabat-Zinn lends his calm, familiar voice to the accompanying CD of guided meditations, making this a complete package for anyone looking to regain a sense of balance and contentment.

Rating:  - The Mindfulness Way Through Depression
A new approach to dealing with depression that offers hope for those who have had little success with other therapies. What is new is the idea of combining techniques that are known to work rather than relying on single approaches. Learning to live in the moment removes many of the triggers that lead to depression. The best book I have read on this topic. I bought 5 copies. I have given away all of them to people who have expressed interest in the book. All of these people have had positive ... Read More

I found it so helpful I purchased one for a friend who is depressed. ... Read More
Rating: - Very engaging and useful.
The book is a relatively quick read--as a clinical psychologist I like to preview books that I might recommend to pts--I got thru it in a weekend. The CD is excellent. Very good value. Beneficial even if one is not depressed!
Rating: - Excellent book merging meditation into our daily lives
A therapist recommeded this book to me. And I couldn't be happier with it. All too often it is easier to ignore feelings, run from them, and then end up with anxiety and depression. This books helps me find a practical way of being with thoughts and feelings and learning kindness towards myself.
The book is really for someone who is open to trying something new (if you don't already do meditation practices). If you want a quick fix to depression, there is probably no such thing and this book definitely ... Read More
