About this listen

Mindfulness practice can help you reduce stress, improve performance, manage pain and increase wellbeing. These are the reasons why elite athletes, performing artists and business leaders are taking up the practice, and why it is being introduced into the world's most successful companies, banks, business schools – even the US Army.

David Michie introduces mindfulness practice and offers innovative solutions to common obstacles. Drawing on ancient Buddhist teachings and contemporary science, he also takes us beyond 'mindfulness lite', offering lucid instructions on how to experience the pristine nature of one's own consciousness directly – an encounter that is truly life-changing.

I really liked Buddhism for Busy People & Enlightenment to Go and will listen to them again. This book wasn't unfortunately of the same calibre.
Too much telling of what the practice can do for you rather then the practice itself.
Stick with the other books.

After his first 2 books, disappointing.
