Perhaps no other person has done more to bring mindfulness meditation into the contemporary landscape of America than Jon Kabat-Zinn. Through a number of research studies, and through Kabat-Zinn's pioneering work at the University of Massachusetts Medical School where he is founder of its world-renowned Stress Reduction Clinic, mindfulness is finally being recognized as a highly effective tool for dealing with stress, chronic pain, and other illnesses.

Now with this four-part home training course, Jon Kabat-Zinn offers listeners the definitive mindfulness meditation practice on CD. We are not trying to actively achieve a state of deep relaxation―or any other state for that matter―while practicing mindfulness, he teaches. But interestingly, by opening to an awareness of how things actually are in the present moment, we often taste very deep states of relaxation and well-being of both body and mind.

Join the bestselling author of
Coming to Our Senses (Hyperion, 2005) and Wherever You Go, There You Are (Hyperion 1995) to develop and deepen your personal mindfulness practice, and to taste the universal aspects of stillness, clarity, wisdom, compassion, and well-being that Guided Mindfulness Meditation offers.

Course objectives:

Utilize body and mind meditations in daily practice
• Practice mindful yoga with clear, safe and simple instructions
• Describe the basic state of being which is present awareness
• Compare the results of unmoving, sitting meditation to a movement meditation such as mindful yoga

This book is a "MUST READ" and if one takes the time to read it and practice the principles contained therein, ones lifestyle will be enhanced drastically, I got a signed copy so my book would have the DNA of the author via his signature and finger prints.

What I like the best about this CD series is the peacefulness and better health that I now have.
My sister is a clinical psychologist and told me that this Mindfulness CD from the Univ. of Mass. Stress Clinic is excellent for those who need to de-stress, to be much healthier, to be more flexible emotionally and physically, to be stronger, to learn to calm oneself, to breathe to relax and much more. It is the best thing I have EVER done for myself. I do it 6 days a week (at home) now. I went through the whole suggested program. My fav is CD 2 which is 40 mins of yoga. Therapeutic yoga. And I also do the breathing exercises. The body scan is really good, too! I had become allergic to all blood pressure meds this past year, so I needed a way to be able to tone things down so my bp would not rise. This has really helped. Be sure to get a thick mat even if you are doing the yoga on a rug. I have a half-inch mat which I got from Amazon, too. I also have the accompanying book on catastrophic living... it goes with the Cds... If you do this, you will be doing yourself a wonderful favor. I am no spring chicken... if I can do it and benefit from it the way I have, so can you. All the best to you!

UPDATE- July 28, 2019: I still use this CD and do the lying down yoga and the full body scan on a regular basis. You strengthen your core and relax with the yoga, and I have been able to bring down my blood pressure and to really relax with the full-body scan. The deal is to do it often and on a regular basis.

I bought Guided Mindfulness Meditation CDs when I was diagnosed with Stage 3B Inflammatory Breast cancer. I was stressed. After 2 years, I am still using them. I really like JKZ's philosophy. I am a Christian and praying nonstop kept me rehashing everything I was going through. JKZ shows you how just to clear your mind and live in the moment and it isn't anti-religious but his method allows you to accept whatever it is you are dealing with. I like his slogan "As long as I am breathing, there is more right with me than wrong with me." Living in the moment is such a powerful thing to accomplish and JKZ shows you how. It isn't about his voice or music but about you learning to accept whatever you are dealing with here and now.

I gave my 85 year old mother both of the yoga CDs and it has also been very helpful to her. After my bilateral mastectomy the yoga CDs helped me get back in shape. Before cancer, I had no reason for an IPod or MP3 player but now I can't live without them.

JKZ's The Mindfulness for Beginners CDs has a very good explanation of JKZ's philosophy. Also a shorter version of the Body Scan which is easier to get through than the 45 minute version which is on Guided Mindfulness Meditation.

I don't sit down and do 30 minutes of guided meditation like is suggested but I take mini meditation breaks throughout the day. It is the best thing I have found to reduce stress and I am doing great now and I feel I can handle just about anything.

I purchased this CD series to complement the MBSR treatment manual for my clients and to complete my dissertation study on mindfulness meditation, and I am very pleased with this product! The content is professional and elegantly presented. It is a great guide for beginners and people who are new to mindfulness. It is also a good tool for establishing a daily meditation practice, as the CD walks you through a mind and body scan meditation. I would have liked to see a picture guide for the yoga exercises , as it will be difficult for people to follow the yoga poses without a visual guide. For someone who is familiar with yoga, a visual guide many not be necessary, but it may be for beginners. The CDs come with a nice pamphlet that explains how to use the CDs and it states that the yoga postures are outlined in the book Full Catastrophe Living. I recommend this book to anyone new to Mindfulness Meditation, but if you are not familiar with the yoga poses, I suggest getting a copy of the book or at least watch a basic youtube yoga video for reference. Aside from this, this is a great CD series for anyone who wants to begin a daily mental and physical practice that reminds us to connect to our present moment!

Ces CDs ont changé l'état de mon cerveau. J'ai un calme que je ne connaissais pas avant de pratiquer le mindfulness meditation.
J'adore sa voix tranquille. J'ai essayé de nombreux méthodes et je recommande JKZ sans hésitation.

Reviewed in Canada on May 7, 2012
I had to laugh at the various coments on these CD's. People falling asleep, or simply not getting it.

There should be a disclaimer however. The CD's are meant to be used in conjunction with the book "Full Catastrophe Living" by the same author. Without the book, which outlines a plan on how to use the CD's, the CD's would be all but useless.

One fellow comlained about Zin mentioning an itch they might feel. The point isn't the itch, cramp, or random thought, it's about how to deal with those things during the meditation process. You are training your brain to be "in the moment" and aware of your inner dialogue so that you can better handle the situations you find yourself in without reacting blindly.

KNowing Jon's previous writings, and having tried his methods i decided to buy this CD set. totally great. I recommend it for anyone wanting self-satisfaction, in finding personal and social answers, and learning how to live a better internal life, which will lead to a better external life. Highly recommended. A great author in that he has practiced, learned and taught this information for many, many years. A proved story-line which i recommend for self-help people to use, learn, and apply within their lives. Then, everyone wins.

5.0 out of 5 stars Daily meditation practice
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 16, 2010
Have used the body scan meditation on the first CD on a daily basis for a year now with stunning effects. The body scan puts one into a deep state of relaxation by focusing awareness and the breath on each body part. This is effectively equivalent to 'yoga nidra' in the yoga tradition. Jon Kabat-Zinn's aim is to bring the practice of mindfulness into everyday life. Regular use of the body scan meditation means that the body becomes more used to the prompts and can take you into relaxation much quicker. Very helpful as a tool to ease transition from the work day into home/personal life. The second meditation ends with two beautiful poems to reflect upon.

The yoga sequences are also very good, easy to follow and having two sessions means you can vary/alternate the practice.

Practical and down-to-earth package giving the listener the experience of stillness and self-compassion that empowers one to begin to live life in a greater state of mindfulness about oneself and others. It also trains the listener to learn to live in the present moment accepting things as they actually are and getting to know oneself as one is. One CD package that won't be gathering dust on the shelves.
