The World of Relaxation was conceived as a way to reach out to patients lying in bed in the hospital and inviting them to experiment inwardly, with Jon’s guidance, in bringing mindful awareness to their present-moment circumstances, utilizing the occasion of having to lie in bed for some time - whatever the viewer’s medical condition and prognosis - to do something for him or herself to promote healing of the mind and body, as a vital complement to whatever the health care system and one’s doctors are doing by way of medical treatments and rehabilitation.

La consapevolezza è considerata l'elemento centrale della meditazione buddista, ma la sua essenza è universale e di profonda utilità pratica per tutti. Essenzialmente la consapevolezza è essere sempre vigili e, malgrado sia caratteristico della nostra mente innescare il pilota automatico e perdere il contatto con l'unico momento, quello presente, di cui effettivamente disponiamo per vivere, sentire, crescere, amare, dare forma alle cose o guarire, essa possiede anche l'innata capacità di destarci al "qui e ora".

More than 20 years ago, Jon Kabat-Zinn changed the way we thought about awareness in everyday life with his now-classic introduction to mindfulness, Wherever You Go, There You Are. He followed that up with 2005's Coming to Our Senses, the definitive book for our time on the connection between mindfulness and our well-being on every level: physical, cognitive, emotional, social, planetary and spiritual.

La "meditazione consapevole" è una pratica affermata e in costante diffusione di cui Jon Kabat-Zinn è stato precursore, maestro indiscusso e autore di testi fondamentali e illuminanti. Fra questi l'ormai classico "Riprendere i sensi" che l'autore ha deciso di riproporre in una versione ampliata e rinnovata in quattro volumi indipendenti, ognuno relativo a un aspetto della mindfulness.

Mais do que uma técnica de meditação, a atenção plena (ou mindfulness) é um estilo de vida que consiste em estar aberto à experiência presente, observando seus pensamentos sem julgamentos, críticas ou elucubrações. Ao tomar consciência daquilo que sente, você se torna capaz de identificar sentimentos nocivos antes que eles ganhem força e desencadeiem um fluxo de emoções negativas - que é o que faz você se sentir estressado, irritado e frustrado.

In this audio program, Dr. Kabat-Zinn takes the listener to his Massachusetts Stress Reduction Clinic for demonstrations of sitting, prone, and standing meditation, as well as testimonials from stressed-out patients who found some peace through his program. He also discusses Henry David Thoreau's Walden Pond and quotes James Joyce. He discusses a study the clinic conducted augmenting ultraviolet light therapy with meditation for psoriasis patients.

If you have psoriasis, you may find this meditation helpful in mobilizing and maximizing your innate capacities of mind and body to enhance healing and the clearing of your skin. The recording is meant to be "done" rather than simply passively listened to. That means following along with the guidance as best you can and practicing what is being suggested from moment to moment and through the stretches of silence.
