In 1990, Jon Kabat-Zinn revolutionized the way millions of people handle distressing thoughts and feelings by writing Full Catastrophe Living the book that introduced mindfulness-based stress reduction to the public for the first time. In A Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Workbook, mindfulness and local expert Bob Stahl adapts Kabat-Zinn's groundbreaking program into an accessible workbook format. The workbook invites readers to participate in formal and informal practices and use fill-in exercises to reflect and track their progress. Bob Stahl, Ph.D., founded and directs mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) programs in five medical centers in the San Francisco Bay area. A longtime mindfulness practitioner, Stahl has completed MBSR teacher certification at University of Massachusetts Medical Center and has lived in a Buddhist monastery for more than eight years. Bookshop Santa Cruz is honored to have Bob Stahl with us for what is sure to be an insightful night.
