I've lately been exploring this one: Mindfulness an eight-week plan for finding peace in a frantic world by Mark Williams. It's a set of cds. The first talks about the program, why mindfulness matters, how to do it, etc. The second cd is 8 meditations. Over the course of the program you use those meditations to guide you into developing a practice.
So far, so good for me. I've also been reading some other things like Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy by David Burns (not linking to it because the mass market price is currently ridiculous on Amazon's marketplace but I bought one for a perfectly reasonable price at a local B&N). Another thing I've been listening to is David Whyte's What to Remember When Waking: The Disciplines of Everyday Life. I've found it beautiful and thought provoking. Not quite actual meditation, but meditative. Not sure I could listen to this and drive the car at the same time, fyi.

My favorite book about meditating is, Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn.

I guess mindfulness is different from meditation, but this book was recently recommended to me to work on mindfulness:
The Mindfulness Solution: Everyday Practices for Everyday Problems It has mindfulness exercises for pretty much every scenario--love life, friendships, eating, etc. Haven't actually started it yet because I'm currently working my way through a mindfulness book specifically for anxiety. |

Dawn, mindfulness is not different from meditation--it's just a specific type of meditation that can also be used more informally (ie, not necessarily sitting). It's what I usually teach and practice.
Here's a link to my YouTube meditation playlist; it's a relatively random selection: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...XczZMIB-RT8P3s The ones on Ekhart Yoga with Esther Teule are particularly nice. Also check out my website for more recommendations: https://www.yogibethc.com/recommended
