    Worth the read!

    I still haven't completed the book but this is one that can make a true difference in our lives. Doesn't everyone experience stress, pain and illness at some point in their life? Then use the proven data from this book to show you how to alleviate pain and illness or at least make all of these things less distressing.

    Thrift books has always been great, but ...

    Thrift books has always been great, but this book had some liquid staining issues in the spine/binding. I had to wipe down with 91% alcohol for slight signs of mold. Will still order from them - this was a fluke for me! Everything else has been v good to excellent condition.

  • A different way of thinking about chronic pain

    This was recommended to me by a pain psychologist. It helped me overcome 10 years of chronic pain! Now I buy this book for my friends.

  • Perspective-changing, especially for those living in chronic pain and/or stress

    This is an amazing book, written by the "godfather of modern mindfulness". Gentle & Reflective, I can only read a paragraph or two at a time, because there is so much to absorb. He offers a new way of living in your body, living your life, training your thoughts... it's fantastic!
