Customer Reviews

An extraordinarily poetic book about a pragmatic subject!
An extraordinarily poetic book about a very pragmatic subject - a way of working in any "helping field."

A guide for healers and want-to-be healers like physicians.
Not only a description of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, but a sharing of what the healing relationship is about. A poetic guide to being with people in a nourishing, honoring way that encourages self-healing. Very easy to read, loved the poetry.

This is an intimate view of MBSR work by a trusted guide.
From the beginning it is clear that this isn't business as usual; this is personal, deeply personal. Saki weaves a fine tapestry with rich imagery, familiar poetry and robust recollection. With great depth of heart the reader can see into the core of MBSR work.
