Mindfulness for Life

The Updated Guide for Today’s World

By: Craig Hassed ,Dr Stephen McKenzie

Mindfulness is a form of mental training that centres on being fully present in life; focussing on what is rather than being distracted by what isn’t. Mindfulness for Life is written by two experts in the field who bring the medical perspective of an international authority on mindfulness and the psychological perspective of a researcher. The result is a book that translates the scientific principles behind mindfulness into a simple, practical and accessible manual to applying mindfulness in your own life. This revised and updated second edition includes: - New research on the science of mindfulness and its clinical applications - An in-depth look at how mindfulness links to mental health, ageing, addiction, pain, emotional intelligence, and a variety of other topics - Details on the benefits of mindful living, including reduced anxiety and depression, improved sleep, coping better with major illnesses, making healthy lifestyle changes, improved leadership skills, achieving a sense of peace, and more - A completely revised section on forming and maintaining mindful relationships with your friends and family. Mindfulness has been around for millennia, but recent years have seen huge advancements in its potential for directly increasing our wellbeing. Take a leap towards mindful living and you might just discover that you become a calmer, happier and healthier being — for life.

Heartfulness

Beyond Mindfulness, Finding Your Real Life

By: Dr Stephen McKenzie

The mindfulness trend has seen mindfulness become valued more as an item in a personal toolkit as opposed to a full way of living. Dr Stephen McKenzie, a leading mindfulness author and teacher, brings us back to its roots –—connecting the heart with mindfulness to become heartfulness. The paths to full living are clearly shown and demonstrated. Being heartful simply means being fully connected — with ourselves and with other people — and therefore fully alive, happy, without stress and at peace. There are exercises for the reader and chapters include adversity, humour, knowledge, kindness, love and hope, among others. With anecdotes, things to do and think about and lots to gently read and enjoy, this is a gentle warm book that seeks to bring the reader home to a happy state.

The Truth about Racism

By: Dr. Philip G. Asante

Dr. Asante uncovers the truth about racism in this revealing and compelling book. He explains where racist ideology has come from, and the reasons why some people are racist, by exploring the contributions from both Christianity and the theory of Evolution. Learn how the Bible was deliberately misinterpreted and abused in order to justify slavery, segregation, colonialism, and apartheid. Better understand what legacy these institutions have left on people. Discover how Darwin's theory of evolution led to the construction of the concept of different "races" and the resultant development of racial superiority and inferiority, based solely on skin coloration. This is a well-written and well-researched book that truly dissects the distressing and often uncomfortable subject of racism. It tugs at the heart strings of humanity and cries out for unity. Some will find the book controversial and uncomfortable, while others will find it liberating and supportive. It will challenge your very conscience and offer a revealing look into the development of racism.

The Freedom Trap

Reclaiming liberty and wellbeing

By: Dr Craig Hassed

In many ways we have never been more ‘free’. We are freer to follow our dreams, set goals and live the life we choose. Yet mental health issues are sky-rocketing. Anxiety and depression are rife and more people feel overwhelmed by daily living. We are more addictive, distracted and pressured. This is a world that increasingly seems to breed discontent. So, is all our so-called freedom nothing more than a trap of our own making? Are we, as the saying goes, simply decorating the cage that keeps us imprisoned? Does everything that flies under the banner of freedom actually promote it? What can we do to change the status quo? The Freedom Trap is an inspiring call for clear thinking and a fresh appraisal of what our freedoms mean and can become. In this challenging, confronting and eye-opening look at what freedom actually is — examined from philosophical, psychological, political, social, legal, ethical, scientific, historical and neurological perspectives — mindfulness expert Associate Professor Craig Hassed explores how we can alleviate our burdens (our worries, regrets and material desires) and find a life of peace, happiness and harmony — true freedom. Including practical thinking steps to help further your understanding of what freedom really means, this book is essential reading for anyone who has ever thought ‘there has to be more to life than this’.
