Exploring the intersection of mindfulness and modern psychology, this book offers a unique perspective on the benefits of mindfulness for psychological well-being. Christina Feldman and Willem Kuyken delve into the core mechanisms of mindfulness and its applications, tracing its roots in Buddhist psychology to its role in contemporary psychological science.

This book provides a comprehensive guide to mindfulness, not only conceptually, but also experientially, inviting readers to consider its value in their own mindfulness practice.
