These accessible meditations beautifully balance Buddhist philosophy with modern values and will be helpful to anyone interested in discovering and integrating mindfulness and serenity into your life. In this critical juncture in the world we need to help ourselves while helping one another, and through meditation cultivate the energy and inner strength of peace and compassion to benefit one another.  This book will give you a fresh view of your meditation experience and how to bridge it into your daily life.” – Dza Kilung Rinpoche, author of THE RELAXED MIND

“Lodro Rinzler’s newest book purports to be a timely guide for working with anxiety—and it is. However, it is far more. It is an introduction to the Buddhist path as a way of becoming more fully human, awake, and capable of loving yourself, others, and life than you ever thought possible, including all your brilliance and confusion.” – Susan Piver, meditation teacher and author of THE FOUR NOBLE TRUTHS OF LOVE: BUDDHIST WISDOM FOR MODERN RELATIONSHIPS

The post Take Back Your Mind: Buddhist Advice for Anxious Times appeared first on Trusted Coach Directory.

The authors present their reflections and analysis of key transformational moments that brought insights which significantly enhanced their personal and professional development. The authors adopt an interdisciplinary approach, discussing relational neurobiology and relational mindfulness practice together with ideas from child and adult development, attachment theory, intersubjectivity, somatic experiencing, and adult learning theories.

The case study narrative charts the development of the authors’ supervision relationship, following which they share a meta-perspective on their learning journey. Finally, they discuss the implications of the study for the education and training of relational practitioners in supervision, coaching, and related fields.

The book will appeal to students, practitioners and supervisors in the helping professions, in particular counselling, psychotherapy, and coaching.
