In today's fast-paced world, peace and happiness often feel unattainable goals.

Based on the scientifically proven mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), the book has been clinically shown to be just as effective as medication for depression and to effectively reduce anxiety, stress, and exhaustion. The authors, respected professionals in the field, have crafted a straightforward form of meditation that can be done in just minutes a day to achieve life-changing results. The book is designed for anyone who struggles in our hectic modern world -- from individuals dealing with depression to those simply looking for more peace and happiness in their lives -- and includes links to audio files that guide readers through the process. Whether overwhelmed by daily stresses or simply seeking more balance, readers will discover the power of mindfulness and the freedom it brings.
