I read this off and on over the course of a year. I've done about four weeks of the formal eight week MBSR program and I imagine I'll carry much of this with me for the rest of my life. Kabat-Zinn can be a bit much but he distills the tenets of mindfulness and meditation so well.

A series of linked stories set in a world where pain starts showing as light shining from the sick part of the body.

This change didn't have the effects I (and at least 1 of the characters) expected nor did the book go in directions I thought it might, but it was beautifully written. This is the 2nd of the author's books I've read and I'm really looking forward to reading others of these lovely and unexpected explorations of unlikely premises.

Flaneurette Love this book and still think about it years later 5mo

Finished my 7th read of the #SummerEndReadathon. I understand the concept of mindfulness, but my ability to execute it just does not seem to be happening. Has anyone successfully done habitual mindfulness or meditation? If so, I want to know all about it.

I‘ve fallen a bit behind on my reading. I‘ve been dealing with migraines for about a week now. Hopefully I‘ll be back to normal soon. #pain #migrainessuck #ouch!
