What if all moments, big and small, could be harnessed this way? In Deeper Mindfulness, Oxford Professor Mark Williams and Dr Danny Penman reunite to present a new eight-week guided meditation programme that takes mindfulness to the next level.

Mais do que uma técnica de meditação, a atenção plena (ou mindfulness) é um estilo de vida que consiste em estar aberto à experiência presente, observando seus pensamentos sem julgamentos, críticas ou elucubrações. Ao tomar consciência daquilo que sente, você se torna capaz de identificar sentimentos nocivos antes que eles ganhem força e desencadeiem um fluxo de emoções negativas - que é o que faz você se sentir estressado, irritado e frustrado.

Sie färben unsere Erfahrungen ein, prägen unsere tiefsten Konditionierungen und steuern, wie wir uns und die Welt erleben.

Chronische Schmerzen sind für jeden Betroffenen eine ungeheure Belastung - aber es gibt einen Ausweg.
