  • Description: "Zen meditation presents a practical advantage to people undergoing psychotherapy as a practice providing tools for seeing directly and objectively, a skill which many clients lack. This inspiring guide provides clinicians with the neuroscientific and clinical evidence supporting the use of meditation and mindfullness to improve their clients' mental health. Filled with vivid case examples, traditional texts, modern interpretations, and meditation research, this book offers step-by-step guidance in performing and teaching meditation, mindfulness, and focusing techniques clinicians can easily translate into their practice"--Provided by publisher
