Vi er alle sårbare over for afhængighed. Det kan være en næsten tvangslignende drift efter at tjekke mobilen eller at overspise, at ryge, at drikke eller noget helt andet, men driften er kendetegnet ved ukontrollable gentagelser.– Hvorfor er de dårlige vaner så svære at overvinde?– Hvordan overkommer vi trangen til det, vi ved, er usundt for os?Denne bog giver banebrydende svar på de vigtigste spørgsmål om afhængighed.– Den viser, hvordan vi kan sætte fingeren på de processer, som stimulerer afhængighed, og derved slippe fri af dem.– Den beskriver de mekanismer, som ligger bag vanetænkning og dannelsen af afhængighed, og hvordan mindfulness kan bryde med disse mekanismer.– Den peger via konkrete patientforløb, egne erfaringer med mindfulness og videnskabelige fakta på en vej væk fra trang og stress – en vej mod et rigere liv.

Når du praktiserer mindfulness og giver det plads i dit liv, kan det åbne op for livsglæde, stilhed og følelsen af bare at være til. Men stilheden er ikke gratis. Den kan få følelser op til overfladen, som før har ligget gemt. Smerter fra traumer og forliste forhold, tanker om ikke at slå til og erindringer fra barndommen. Denne bog handler om, hvordan man kan håndtere de følelser, der dukker op efter mindfulness. Efter mindfulness indeholder konkrete øvelser og forslag til, hvordan du kan arbejde med de erindringer, der kommer op til overfladen og begrænser dig i dit liv. Bogen giver eksempler på, hvordan det psykologiske forsvarssystem kan forstås og bruges konstruktivt i mindfulness. Den tematiserer nogle af de udfordringer, der møder dig, som regelmæssigt praktiserer mindfulness og kommer med bud på, hvad bevidsthedens vaner og mønstre betyder for dybden af stilhed - og hvordan man kan arbejde med den viden. Efter mindfulness henvender sig til alle, der praktiserer mindfulness, og terapeuter, psykologer, læger m.fl.. der bruger mindfulness i deres arbejde.

At vi aktivt forholder os til, hvordan vi hver især vil leve det liv, der er os givet – ikke blot overleve i det, men leve det fuldt og helt.

Drop forestillingen om ‘at leve lykkeligt til dine dages ende’.• Opgiv kampen mod psykisk smerte.• Lær at lægge mærke til dit indre liv og at forholde dig til dit liv, som det er her og nu.• Find ud af, hvad der virkelig betyder noget for dig i livet, og handl derefter. Troen på evig lykke har dybe rødder i vores kultur, og derfor kæmper vi imod, når livet er svært. Vi jagter evig lykke og gør alt, hvad vi kan, for at undgå tristhed, tvivl, angst, smerte og usikkerhed. Men livet er ikke let. Når vi lærer at acceptere, at livet også er svært og gør ondt, kan vi leve mere tilfredsstillende liv. Metoderne i Mindfulness for begyndere er baseret på en accept af de psykiske bekymringer og på at øge den enkeltes psykologiske fleksibilitet. Accept gør det muligt at leve et nærværende liv, som er baseret på ens egne værdier. Når det lykkes, vil man dagligt opleve mere frihed og større livskvalitet. Forfatterne har sammensat et ni-ugers forløb med mindfulness og øvelser i Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), der lærer dig at leve i nuet og iagttage dine tanker uden at være kritisk over for dem. Ved at bruge et par minutter dagligt finder du ud af, hvad der virkelig betyder noget for dig, og du lærer at leve et liv, der er baseret på dine egne værdier. Ernst Bohlmeijer er professor ved Twente universitet og har en særlig interesse i narrativ psykologi og mindfulness.Monique Hulsbergen er psykolog og psykoterapeut og har egen psykologisk praksis. Hun har skrevet flere bøger om mindfulness.Oversat fra engelsk af Mette Lindbjerg Jørgensen.

"In How to Listen, Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh demonstrates how deep listening is a fundamental building block of good communication. But perhaps more fundamentally, listening is central to our practice, a basic ingredient to strengthen our capacity for mindfulness, concentration, insight, and compassion. Learning how to listen with equanimity to life itself, we generate insight into the true nature of our deep connection to all things. And from this place of understanding -- when we know that we aren't separate -- our capacity to listen deepens even further. With clear and gentle guidance from Thich Nhat Hanh, we learn how truly listening -- to ourselves, to each other, to Mother Earth, and to the many 'bells of mindfulness' that are available to us in each moment -- is the foundation of our practice, an expression of love, and a solution to our deepest and most urgent large-scale conflicts"--
