“An unusual—and unusually profound—self-help manual that teaches the application of ancient meditative techniques to modern living…. Kabat-Zinn here details the lessons of the course—from how to undertake a breathing-attentive ‘sitting’ meditation to how to apply insights gained to the obvious stresses of physical and emotional pain, as well as the more subtle stresses of work, other people, time pressure, etc.—the ‘poignant enormity of our life experience.’”
—Kirkus Reviews
“In personable, enlightening prose, Kabat-Zinn first explains how to develop a meditation schedule, and in later chapters pragmatically applies his plan to the main sources of stress. An impressive middle section clearly marshals scientific and anecdotal evidence relating state of mind to state of health. And while emphasizing meditation’s healing potential, Kabat-Zinn makes no sweeping claims, suggesting that the discipline serve not as a means but as an end.”
—Publishers Weekly

What referring physicians and other health professionals say about the clinic:

Not only do the patients benefit from the program in the short term, they learn techniques to help them face future stressful situations more confidently. The nearly unanimous opinion of patients completing the program is that they feel they again can take charge of their own lives.”
—Mary R. Hawthorne, M.D.General Internal MedicineWorcester, Massachusetts
