Calm your troubled mind
Product details
In our fast-paced, multitasking era, our minds are increasingly prone to distraction, flitting from one thought to another and drifting away from the present moment, like a monkey swinging from tree to tree. This has heightened our need to quiet our minds, focus on the present moment, pay attention to our surroundings, and stop dwelling on the past and worrying about the future. The most effective way to achieve this is by returning to ancient practices and the wisdom of our ancestors, who proved to us, through trial and error, that mindfulness is the key to a peaceful life and to restoring the balance we have lost due to the fast-paced lifestyles of modern life.
The author and mindfulness teacher, Dr. Martina Asperger Choudhury, tells us about her life-changing journey after a long therapeutic journey that made her discover the radical changes that mindfulness can bring to an individual's life. She begins by explaining the meaning of mindfulness, then presents its history and roots in various Eastern civilizations, then moves on to explaining the different ways of practicing it and meditation exercises, and reveals to us everything we need in detail, whether it be tools, places, or favorable conditions for each exercise, and the effect of each exercise.
When starting anything new, we face difficulties that may make us stop and despair. For this reason, Dr. Chaudhry has compiled for us the most prominent and well-known obstacles that we may encounter when starting to apply mindfulness and its meditations, and she has provided us with solutions for many of them to make things much easier for us.
