    About this ebook

    This is a Summary & Analysis of Wherever You Go, There You Are: Mindfulness Meditation in Everyday Life by Jon Kabat-Zinn.

    Examined is the theory of mindfulness meditation and how it might be practiced in daily life. Here you will find both introductory as well as advanced techniques using mindfulness meditation. Mindfulness is the practice of being aware of what is around you, and appreciating those things happening around you in any given moment. Meditation is the means used in achieving mindfulness and exploring it. Meditation can be practiced in many forms. When people do not give attention to mindfulness, they risk missing the value, intricacies, and beauty of life’s offerings.

    Mindfulness is a means of improving human relations, both with one’s self as well as with others. It encourages character development in the areas of gentleness, gratitude, and nurturing. Because of this, mindfulness meditation benefits parents, in particular, as they learn to practice it regularly.

    While mindfulness meditation is not a specifically spiritual concept, it is occasionally described in those terms
